Andy Reid, the head coach of the NFL Kansas City Chiefs, has signed on as a brand ambassador for Skechers Hands Free Slip Ins. He will appear in a print ad campaign in 2025 that “illustrates the comfort and convenience of the brand’s innovative and effortless signature footwear collection,” said Skechers in a media release.
“I tell our players to never get too comfortable mentally, but after standing on NFL sidelines for more than 30 years I can very much appreciate being able to kick off—or slip in—to my shoes comfortably,” said Reid.
“Coaching championship-caliber teams takes everything you’ve got, so anyone will understand exactly why Coach Reid appreciates the comfort and ease of Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins,“ said Michael Greenberg, president of Skechers. “Only Skechers has the signature hands-free technology to help one of the most recognizable and successful active coaches in the league stay comfortable during downtime—so he’s always ready to go hands free. Plus, our innovative Skechers Slip-ins collection is perfect for fans—just step in and head to the tailgate.”
Reid is now in his 12th season as head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs. Previously, he was the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles for 14 seasons. With a career head coaching record of 294-161-1, Reid is the only NFL coach to achieve key milestones with two different franchises: over 100 wins and appearing in four consecutive conference championship games. He is a three time Super Bowl champion (LIV, LVII, LVIII), 2002 AP NFL Coach of the Year and three-time Sporting News Coach of the Year (2000, 2002, 2018).
Reid joins a team of global Skechers ambassadors—from music icon Snoop Dogg, lifestyle legend Martha Stewart, comedian Howie Mandel, and TV and fitness personalities Amanda Kloots and Brooke Burke to former professional athletes, including Tony Romo, Howie Long and Sugar Ray Leonard.
The roster of elite pros worldwide competing in Skechers footwear includes basketball stars Joel Embiid, Julius Randle, Terance Mann, Jabari Walker, and Rickea Jackson; golfers Matt Fitzpatrick and Brooke Henderson; soccer players Harry Kane, Mohammed Kudus and Oleksandr Zinchenko; baseball players Clayton Kershaw, Aaron Nola, Chris Taylor, Brendan Donovan, Aaron Nola, and Wade Miley; and pickleball pros Tyson McGuffin and Catherine Parenteau.
