I saw this in the Wall Street Journal earlier in the week and am surprised no one has talked about it on the boards.http://www.wsj.com/articles/skechers-strides-into-second-place-in-u-s-sports-footwear-market-1431982249

Skechers accounted for 5% of the sports-footwear market for the quarter ended in March, according to retail tracker NPD Group, moving past Adidas AG’s 4.6% as well as the 4% shares notched by Asics and New Balance.
It amazes me that Skecher's is ahead of those companies. I've never even contemplated wearing their brand.
I'm currently in Under Armour (supporting the local company). I guess I'm a trendsetter as I 've seen an number of MLB managers seemignly wearing my Speed Form Gemini. If only, I could get the special colors that the Orioles wear in orange.
