What Deckers Brands does

Footwear company owning the Hoka performance running brand and UGG lifestyle brand, sold globally via wholesale and DTC.

Sells through department and specialty stores and through its own websites and shops, and its shoes are made by contract factories in Asia rather than its own. UGG is highly seasonal, selling most in the autumn and winter holiday period, while Hoka has been the fast-growing brand since Deckers bought it in 2013.

Products and services

  • UGG (lifestyle footwear)
  • Teva

Customers

  • Runners and athletes (Hoka)
  • Lifestyle/fashion consumers (UGG)

Where it sits in the supply chain

  • Consumer discretionary
  • Footwear
  • Brand portfolio design and global…

What could go right

  • Hoka international and category expansion
  • UGG brand extensions beyond boots

What could go wrong

  • UGG seasonality/fashion-cycle risk
  • Rising run-category competition

Moat: narrow (brand, distribution). Hoka's rapid share gains in run-specialty and UGG's durable lifestyle following support pricing power.
