PROFILE |
 |
After slamming into a few hurdles, Fila Holding is getting back on track. Once the shoe industry's fleet-footed star, Fila has slipped behind NIKE, adidas-Salomon, and Reebok. In addition to sports shoes, Fila designs and markets activewear, casual wear, and sportswear worldwide. Fila is still trying to stomp out its reputation as a high-fashion brand by focusing on performance, especially for its running shoes such as the Rejuvenate. The Fila brand is endorsed by the Detroit Pistons' Grant Hill, among others. To contain costs, Fila trimmed its workforce, outsourced its sales operations, and sold its US headquarters. Italian luxury goods and publishing firm Holding di Partecipazioni (HdP) controls the company.
