Whether it’s a busy day at Fashion Week or a morning on my quiet days running at the park, I always find myself reaching for the right Skechers pair. I’m deeply honored and thrilled to join the Skechers team, and I can’t wait to share my journey with them.”

“Skechers has placed particular importance and investment in the Philippines, and as we continue to build our business in the market, we felt the time was right to have a Filipino that embodies both the country and the brand’s culture. We found just that with Pia Wurtzbach,” said Suzette Pasustento, country manager of Skechers Philippines. “Pia’s influence across many areas along with her dedication to an active lifestyle aligns with our brand’s diverse ethos. We look forward to working with Pia to inspire others to take that first step with Skechers and realize their full potential.”
