“It all starts with your feet, and nobody helps us feel better than Skechers,” said Martha Stewart, who wears Skechers’ Memory Foam and Arch Fit® collections in the multiplatform campaign. “All of their designs and colors are loaded with cushioning and style—they’re a natural for the home, garden and workplace. I think they’ll really resonate with those who follow and enjoy the Martha Stewart Brand, and I look forward to building on our new partnership.”
“Martha Stewart is a wonderful beacon for living well—for bringing more beauty to the everyday,” added Michael Greenberg, president of Skechers. “Generations have been inspired by her television shows, books, magazines and products, and millions follow her online—trusting Martha’s commitment to quality in everything she does and her impeccable taste in offering the best product. We couldn’t be happier that she believes in Skechers comfort and is teaming up with us.”

In recent years, she has continued to reinvent herself—partnering with Snoop Dogg for Martha and Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party, debuting the HGTV Show Martha Knows Best, and continuing to draw millions of subscribers to her publications and platforms.
Stewart joins a team of Skechers ambassadors that includes singer Willie Nelson, fitness gurus and television personalities Brooke Burke and Amanda Kloots, golfers Brooke Henderson and Matt Fitzpatrick, and Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw, as well as a slate of athletic legends such as former football players and broadcasters Tony Romo, Howie Long and Cris Carter, iconic boxer Sugar Ray Leonard and NASCAR legend Rusty Wallace.
