I was knocked off my feet by the value we received from the SEE students in just their first visit.”Bob Kilinski

Skechers USA, Inc., an award-winning global leader in the lifestyle footwear industry, teamed up with SEE in Fall 2005 to create inspiring shoe concepts that appealed to trend-savvy men, and women. The participant’s design’s were extremely innovative and went beyond the hottest trends in the market, with themes like graffiti, cornrows, and secret inner pockets. Sketchers was so impressed that four designs were chosen to be manufactured and sold to the public. Please stay tuned to our website to be informed as to when the sale of the sneakers will happen and where.
For all projects SEE participants had to learn how products were designed, the materials’ use and function, and the process that goes into actually making the product. The designs shown illustrate the young designers’ passion for originality, eye for flare and marketing savvy.
