Steve Madden shoes are coming to the UK - but sales are falling in the US
My little world of shoes is about to expand. Yes, Steve Madden, he of the designer looky-likies at high street prices, is to make his shoes available to those of us in the UK at last! The Steve Madden line will be hitting our shores in Spring 2008, which seems like a long time away, but should at least guarantee us a fresh new crop of shoes for next year's summer (if we get one). It's not yet known which outlets will be selling the shoes, but major department stores look most likely.
Will the move abroad help boost the company's profits, though, that is the question? Sales of the Steve Madden line have been falling in the States, with the company blaming the situation on the discontinuation of the 'Rule' and 'Jump' lines. I wonder if there's another reason, though? Do you buy Steve Madden shoes, US readers? And if not, why not? (The shoes pictured, by the way, are Madden's 'Luvvy' courts: I'm 'luvving' (sorry) the red heel and polka dots, but would you buy them, I wonder?)
