Footwear Store Design Combines Elements of Fun and Comfort in True Sanuk Fashion
IRVINE, Calif., Feb. 17, 2015 -- Sanuk®,
a division of Deckers Brands (NYSE: DECK), the not-so-typical footwear
brand known for its love of innovation and unconventional comfort, today
grand-opened its new retail store in the heart of Downtown Disney at
Walt Disney World Resort.
"We're thrilled to open our fifth Sanuk store – and as our brand name
comes from a word that means 'fun,' I can't think of a more appropriate
place to expand our retail presence than in Downtown Disney," said Jake Brandman,
President of Sanuk. "The space was designed to showcase the vast
assortment of 'never uncomfortable' footwear in an environment that
captures the spirit of the brand."
Spanning 1,000 square feet, the new Sanuk footwear store at Downtown Disney blends sleek design with bright colors and custom fixtures to capture a one-of-a-kind visual shopping experience. Global prints and textures, including the brand's iconic 'poncho print', help define the aesthetic of the space, which will have more than 175 creatively-inspired shoe styles on display for women, men and kids.
Sanuk is best known for its sandals and sandal/shoe hybrids, which will be prominently highlighted in the store, along with closed-toe shoe styles that are gaining in popularity.
The location will feature popular styles, such as the Yoga Sling, Yoga Mat, Beer Cozy Light and Yogi 3, along with heritage styles like the PickPocket, Vagabond, Chiba and Donna, as well as new styles in the Boulevard and Kat collections.
Downtown Disney is currently undergoing the largest expansion in its history, to be renamed and re-imagined as Disney Springs, an exciting new waterfront district for shopping, dining and entertainment. Sanuk is part of the first phase of store openings planned for what eventually will be known as The Landing within Disney Springs.
The store location is at 1600 East Buena Vista Dr. #E, Lake Buena Vista, FL 32830 and the hours of operation will be 10 a.m. - 11 p.m., 365 days a year.

About Disney SpringsRepresenting the largest expansion in Downtown Disney history, Disney Springs will be a one-of-a-kind Disney experience, treating guests by day and night to great dining, shopping and entertainment amid beautiful open-air promenades, flowing springs and waterfront charm. With an air of sophisticated grace and design that harkens to Florida's waterfront towns at the turn-of-the-century, Disney Springs will be home to four distinct, outdoor neighborhoods opening in phases: The Landing, Town Center, Marketplace and West Side. The Landing is the first of the four neighborhoods and is scheduled to open in spring 2015. When fully completed in 2016, Disney Springs will double the number of shopping, dining and entertainment venues – from the current 70 to approximately 150. Disney Springs is part of Walt Disney World Resort, the number one family vacation destination in the world, located in Lake Buena Vista, Florida.
