Skechers is elevating its worldwide presence by opening a new flagship store in Ireland on Dublin’s Grafton Street.
Joining the concept store on Henry Street and four retail stores in greater Dublin, the approximately 10,000-square-foot store is designed to present Skechers’ comfort technologies in one of the country’s most highly trafficked districts.
Peter Youell, managing director for Skechers in the UK and Ireland, said, “…our head-to-toe offering is on full display at our new flagship store on Grafton Street—and its central location alongside esteemed international retailers will attract consumers of every age to the latest Skechers offers, from our Skechers hands-free slip-in styles to our extensive performance, fashion, sport, casual and work, and children’s collections.”
“Skechers has an established network of stores across Great Britain and Ireland, and we continue to invest in key markets like this on our path to reach $10 billion in annual sales by 2026,” said David Weinberg, chief operating officer, Skechers. “This flagship destination adds dimension to our brand, building excitement and driving our comfort message home in a district that makes big impressions on consumers. We believe this new store’s an ideal centerpiece, ready to captivate and drive growth across Ireland and Northern Ireland as well as Europe.”
Displaying Skechers’ shoes, coordinating apparel and accessories and a dedicated performance shop, the store, located at 13-14 Grafton Street, mirrors the brand’s premier retail stores while catering to local styles.
The flagship store joins 111 Skechers retail stores across Ireland and the UK. Consumers can also find the brand’s collections at over 525 Skechers stores in the U.S., more than 3,800 international stores, online, and at leading retailers worldwide.
