Industry veteran Chuck Eggers has been appointed Executive Vice President and General Merchandise Manager of The Athlete's Foot. This follows an announcement in September 2003 that Eggers had joined the organization as interim GMM.

Eggers brings almost 30 years of athletic footwear specialty retailing experience to The Athlete's Foot. He will oversee both merchandising and marketing.

“Chuck has become a key member of our leadership team during his time as interim GMM,” says Robert J. Corliss, president and CEO of The Athlete's Foot. “His global experience will prove invaluable as we grow our business around the world.”
