Stand tall and be a champion in a crowd of Naysayers. We’re for the ones that dance harder, sing louder and don’t care what anyone else thinks. This is your story. Play Life Loud.
Platypus Shoes is a part of the Accent Group which is the largest footwear group with over 750+ stores, 35 brands and 40 online platforms including Platypus, Skechers, Hype DC, Vans, Dr. Martens, Subtype, The Athletes Foot, CAT, Merrell, The Trybe, Pivot, Timberland, Stylerunner, Nude Lucy, Glue Store, Herschel and Saucony.
