Product

Skins has designed and continues to develop a two-part, footwear structure consisting of an outer collapsible "Skin" and an inner orthopedic support section called the "Bone." The design is intended to allow consumers to purchase one inner section, the Bone, and numerous outer Skins, resulting in multiple style variations from the same pair of shoes, with the same feel and fit despite which Skin is being worn.

Skins founder Mark Klein had noticed a trend toward customization across different industries, from sunglasses with interchangeable lenses to Tivo systems that allow television viewers to control their programming. Sensing an opportunity, he conceived Skins Footwear, a shoe system with two interchangeable parts: an interior structural Bone that provides orthopedic support and a floppy exterior Skin with an integrated sole that can be changed in a matter of seconds.

Skins intends to initially design, manufacture and market high quality men's and women's footwear and is finalizing the first Skins collection with an anticipated March 2007 product launch. Skins' objective is to create a new attire concept that allows and encourages consumers to frequently change their footwear, while experiencing equal comfort in all designs of shoes.
