Skechers USA Retail, LLC designs, develops and markets lifestyle and performance footwear, apparel and accessories for men, women and children, describing itself as "THE COMFORT TECHNOLOGY COMPANY®". The business was founded in 1992 in Manhattan Beach, California by Robert Greenberg, previously of L.A. Gear, and his son Michael Greenberg, and began with the Chrome Dome, a utility-focused men's boot. Comfort technology underpins the company's product work; its stated approach is that comfort "wasn't just a feature, it was the foundation".

Technical work at the company spans footwear design and development, comfort technology and ergonomics, performance footwear engineering, and apparel and accessories design. Its own technologies include Arch Fit, podiatrist-certified foot support developed from 20 years of data, and Slip-ins, hands-free footwear that can be put on without use of the hands. The company also produces award-winning performance footwear lines alongside its broader lifestyle portfolio.
