This week Skechers copied the concept behind for TOMS shoes by launching BOBS (link no longer available). Just like TOMS, when you buy a pair of BOBS, Skechers would donate another pair to a child in need. Even the shoes were the same. And their name had a similar short, familiar feel.

Skechers USA, Inc. is an American footwear company headquartered in Manhattan Beach, California. Sketchers products are all manufactured in independent factories located overseas. These factories are mostly located in China and Vietnam and, sadly, there are no factories located in the USA.

SKECHERS created the BOBS name as an acronym for the charitable mission of the brand: Benefitting Others By Shoes.

In 2010, Skechers copied essentially the entire concept behind TOMS and launched BOBS Shoes by SKECHERS. They are producing similar shoes, with the brand name BOBS (a plural version of a common three letter male name, expressed in all caps).

These shoes work well and don't rub my toes. They don't rub my baby bunions. The foot bed is very soft and the shoe is very comfortable.

BOBS from Skechers Make a difference with BOBS - the brand that's donated more than $10 million to animal organizations and has helped 1.9 million shelter dogs and cats. To learn more about how you can save and support animals with your purchase, visit BOBS charity.

Bobs shoes are made of canvas and available in many different styles for men, women, and kids. These shoes are available in plain colors and also floral prints to make them alluring for women.

They are made out of a canvas fabric and have rubber sole. They slide on easily and comfortably because of the stretchy goring wedge at the top of the shoe. The footbed is made out of memory foam and they have a shock absorbing low profile midsole which is great for those who find themselves on their feet longer.

"BOBS are the best shoe I've found for flat feet they're the only shoe I wear to work." The canvas shoes are not waterproof, so you wouldn't want to wear them if there's a chance of rain. That said, the budget-friendly price and versatile style makes this pair an option worth considering.

A good walking shoe. For the price I'm not upset with them. I'm a hardcore Skechers fan and they are the only brand running shoe I workout in because of the unparalleled comfort. These BOBS from Skechers are soooo stylish and run a half size small for me than regular Skechers.

Skechers Go Walk Shoes could be the most comfortable shoes ever. Made from a synthetic and upper canvas, they come in varying colour choices to suit the demands of your life. The simple slip-on styles make it a breeze to wear these lightweight, super comfortable walking shoes.

As a consequence, Skechers can cause ligament and muscle stresses and strains. The memory foam could take on the 'memory' of a poor gait style causing destabilising foot, ankle, knee, hip and lower back pain.

Digital marketing and e-commerce are essential marketing strategies for Skechers. The company uses these channels to reach its target audience, increase brand awareness, and drive sales.
