Kanye West showed up to Skechers Los Angeles headquarters uninvited<\/a> and would later be escorted from the location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Skechers USA, Inc., The Comfort Technology Company\u2122, stated Kanye West \u2013 also referred to as Ye \u2013 arrived unannounced and without invitation at one of Skechers\u2019 corporate offices in Los Angeles.\u00a0 <\/p>

Considering Ye was engaged in unauthorized filming, two Skechers executives escorted him and his party from the building after a brief conversation. Skechers is not considering and has no intention of working with West.\u00a0<\/p>

We condemn his recent divisive remarks and do not tolerate antisemitism or any other form of hate speech. The Company would like to again stress that West showed up unannounced and uninvited to Skechers corporate offices.<\/p>Statement via Skechers<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
