Skechers is to open a 3,500-square-foot double-unit outlet store at Princes Quay in Hull in late September, marking its first regional outlet location.

The store will be located on level 2 of the shopping centre, which was redeveloped last year to provide a £20m outlet deck with brands including Next, Ben Sherman, Bench, Suits Direct and Graham and Brown.

All stores on level 2 are outlets. Skechers will be joining with a selection of off-price athletic, casual and fashionable footwear and clothing.

"Skechers is a huge worldwide brand and we're delighted to welcome them to Hull,” sayd John Magee, centre manager. “This is the first time they've had a standalone store in the city and I'm sure it'll be a huge success. They're taking a prominent unit on Level 2 of the centre, next to Beaverbrooks, opposite Monsoon, which integrates our outlet offering with the rest of the centre.

"Welcoming a major brand like Skechers to the scheme demonstrates the positive impact of the £20m investment in the centre, which included the development of our outlet offering and will continue with the pedestrian link to Hull Venue, which is progressing well."

Princes Quay is the UK’s first full price/outlet hybrid scheme. The new outlet deck enabled the opening of 24 new stores and is anchored by Next.
