In 2023, Skechers reported total carbon emissions of approximately 82,593,000 kg CO2e, comprising 10,610,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 71,983,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This represents a slight decrease in emissions compared to 2022, where total emissions were approximately 82,582,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 10,943,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 71,639,000 kg CO2e. Over the years, Skechers has shown a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. In 2021, the company reported total emissions of approximately 79,543,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 15,925,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 63,618,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a general trend of stabilising emissions despite increasing revenue, which reached approximately 8 billion USD in 2023. However, Skechers has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests that while the company is monitoring its emissions, it may need to establish clearer commitments to enhance its climate strategy and align with industry standards for sustainability.
