Skechers Branching Out With Wallets and Belts

In an effort to accessorize customers head-to-toe, Skechers is partnering with the Los Angeles-based French Craft Leather Goods Co. to start making leather accent pieces to hit stores in the U.S. and Canada this June.

The expanded offerings for adults and kids will include embellished belts; belt buckles crafted out of zinc, brass, and steel; children's coin purses; checkbook covers; and wallets made of full-grain leather, suede, cotton, and nylon similar to that found on Skechers's famed platform kicks, reports WWD.

From the belt images we've seen, expect the styles to err on the youthful side with patent glitter versions in hot pink with rhinestone buckles, as well as camo-print and studded pieces. There's a slim and classic brown option, too.

The wallets come in black and chocolate brown (shown above) with leather stitching.

"Skechers has put a signature spin on the leading trends in the belt and wallet markets for our debut collection," Michael Greenberg, the president of Skechers, tells StyleList.

"Reflective of Skechers styling, the unique leathers, finishes, and vibrant colors make every piece pop. We're proud to extend our brand with high-quality, on-trend accessories for men, women, and children."

Skechers will also apparently branch out into even more categories in seasons to come.

I bought a sketcher's purse a while ago. It's denim blue, made out of very soft leather or plastic. It's the greatest purse I have ever had. Are you still making them?
