The Stride Rite Corporation strives to stay in step with the US footwear market. A designer and marketer of athletic and casual footwear for adults and children, the company offers boots, dress shoes, sandals, and sneakers. Its brand names include Grasshoppers, Keds, Munchkin, Pro-Keds, Sperry Top-Sider, Street Hot, and Stride Rite. The company's primary business is wholesale, but its footwear is also sold through about 120 stores it owns, nearly 50 leased departments in department stores, and about 35 Stride Rite Family Footwear outlets. Stride Rite has raised its profile by establishing a licensing relationship with fashion leader Tommy Hilfiger. Manufacturers in China make most of the company's products.
