Deckers Brands

Our Company

Started in 1973 by a University of California, Santa Barbara student who began making and selling sandals at craft fairs along the West Coast, Deckers has grown into a company that spans the globe with five lifestyle brands: UGG® Australia, Teva®, Sanuk®, Ahnu® and Hoka One One®. In a landscape strewn with penny loafers and wingtips, college student Doug Otto recognizes a need for casual, comfortable footwear. To fulfill that need, he combines dreams with ingenuity to create a new kind of sandal.
