participants include Floodgate; Western Technology Investment; Finn Capital; Rockport founder Bruce Katz; Yasunobu Kyogoku, former COO of Uniqlo; Fabrice Ginda and Jose Marin, among others.
Since the brand’s launch in 2013, it has grown almost 100 percent per quarter, according to the company, and is on track to sell more than a million pairs of shoes over the next 12 to 18 months.
plae was founded by former puma designer Ryan Ringholz, who serves as chief designer, and is led by CEO Jonathan Spier, a Silicon Valley tech-startup veteran.
“Kids now expect everything within reach to respond to their touch and have it their own way,” said Ringholz, about the collection’s unique feature — patent-pending interchangeable tabs that allow
kids to customize both the style and the fit of their shoes.
