• Are your stores open?

  All Skechers stores are operating with new safety protocols to comply with Government directives.

  
  To find your nearest store, please see our Store Locator. 

  Hygiene and social distancing measures

  To help make our stores safer, we’ve introduced a COVID-safe plan to help us maintain an appropriate distance from each other while in our stores. We will review and adapt these in-store measures as the environment evolves.

  Mandatory face coverings in-store 
  Update: As of 6:00 am on Thursday the 15th of April 2021, as per Queensland Government guidelines, face masks will no longer be mandatory in retail settings, however, you are strongly encouraged to carry a mask at all times and wear one when you are unable to maintain 1.5 m distance from other people. 

  As of 6:00 pm on Friday the 26th of March 2021, as per Victorian Government guidelines, fitted face masks will no longer be required in retail settings, however must be carried with you at all times. 

   

  Introduce a limit to the number of customers in-store at any given time

  Our stores will have signage displayed with the max capacity allowed in-store at any one time. If the store has reached capacity, the number of customers will be managed using a one in, one out policy. Shopping centres may also introduce capacity limits so we strongly advise to check on their websites before heading in.

  Maintain 1.5 metres apart from each other where possible

  Social distancing tape will be placed around our floors and seating areas. These can be found throughout the store as reminders, as well as areas where you may be required to queue.

  Use EFTPOS/Paywave/Tap n Go services available

  We strongly encourage you to use your card or phone to tap and pay instead of cash, whenever possible.

  Use sanitisation station upon entering the store

  A team member will be at the entry door to offer hand sanitiser which all customers will be required to use before entering the store.

  Regular cleaning routines throughout the entire store

  We apply the highest standard of cleanliness and hygiene across our stores. We have increased the routine cleaning of frequently touched hard surfaces.

  Remove and put on your own footwear

  Our team will still be available to assist you with any sizing questions you may have, however they will maintain 1.5-metre distance to comply with social distancing. Our stores will have disposable try on socks and gloves available for customers.

  Training for team members on social distancing and additional hygiene measures

  All of our team members will be required to complete a training course.

  
  Thank you for playing your part in helping us practise social distancing. We appreciate your continued support as we work through this together.

  We hope to see you in-store or online soon.

  Skechers.
