Not sure - we will have to go up on the Sketchers website to find out.

That´s great news!

yummy!

There was a photo in the article too but damn! it was too small to grab..
again, go cookie!

I didn't know Sketchers did a boot line... will have to go check that out.
And yes, more photoshoots! I can't wait.

This is great news. I have a feeling we could be seeing a lot more of these kinds of endorsements if David's interested. He's a marketer's dream. His image is totally positive. He's cool, smart, likable, sexy, appeals to all ages and both men and women. He's perfect. I want to see him in a Gap ad.

I pass their UK head office at least twice a day, they're nearly on my doorstep, and I think David should get over here supporting the brand immediately

I've just thought, they normally have a larger then life cardboard cut out of whoever is their current 'face' in the front lobby, very clear from the road, don't always know who they are (I'm presuming US people not really known over here), when I pass by and there's a larger the life size David there, I fully expect to crash my car

That's awesome for Cook! He's going to be everywhere! Maybe he should get with the people at Vitamin Water too! Because VW already has two AI winners endorsing their stuff, Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson! That would be good for him!

Slightly off topic! Did you know the the word "Custard Cream" has been added to the Oxford English Dictionary?
And yes, ill bring them... they are my favourites!

It looks like they plan to promote their boot line and isn't David the perfect person to do it.
The stitching on those jeans ......

(where's that THUD emoticon when you need it?)

They should have signed Archuleta too..., especially considering how young their target audience is generally.
Cook covers the boot line and Archie covers sneakers!

Yesss!!! I think we would all pass out if we saw that ad!!! Do you think they would make a lifesize one for us fans? *****THUD*****
To be honest I didn't expect him to endorse Skechers of all brands

But come to think of it, I'm sure they will have a david cook line of boots. And to see advertisements featuring him is just great!
And that huge pic of him
annieeeee.
Jul 9 2008, 07:20 AM
YAY DAVIDDDDDDDDDDDD. [:
i'm so happy he's getting all of these deals and stuff!
and did you guys see how it said that he's the first guy to be signed with skechers since 2002 ?
AWESOMEEEEE. [:

I have to admit I giggled just a little when I saw the press release for the endorsement deal and I guess that was because of Carrie Underwood's Sketcher ads 3 years ago but I couldn't be more thrilled for him.

If they make them in a size 3, then I'm good to go.

By size 3 I mean size 3 in a child's shoe. Yep, I'm 32-years-old and wear a size that small.
