本週《英語咖啡館》John 老師和 Patrick 老師要帶你揭開 Skechers 的品牌傳奇！從創辦人之前創立 L.A. Gear 的豐富經驗，到 Skechers 如何從街頭潮流轉型成舒適機能鞋的代名詞，在 Nike 和 Adidas 的夾擊下闖出一片天！

This week on English Cafe, Patrick and I take you behind the brand legend of Skechers! From the founder's rich experience previously establishing L.A. Gear, to how Skechers transformed from street fashion into synonymous with comfortable, functional footwear, carving out its own space despite being caught between Nike and Adidas!

Additionally, in this episode we also bring you three shoe-related English idioms to make your English conversations more vivid and interesting!
