“I’ve been seeing more players competing in Skechers, so I wanted to try them for myself. It was immediately clear that Skechers is a perfect fit for me,” said Norman Powell, who plays in the SKX NEXUS™. “It starts with that famous Skechers comfort, but these sneakers look great, and I love wearing them on the court. While everything about Skechers Basketball is unexpected, they understand the grind and are relentless in their pursuit of performance excellence, so I can’t wait to take it up a notch with this brand.”

He is a great asset to our brand and illustrates how the signature comfort and performance offered by our footwear can help players elevate their game.”
