Overview
Genesco's sole concern is nicely capped off, to boot (so to speak). It sells casual and dress shoes and headgear -- primarily for men and boys -- through some 2,240 department, discount, and specialty stores in the US, Puerto Rico, and Canada. Genesco operates through four footwear segments and one for headwear. Shoe operations include Journeys, Underground Station (with Jarman, targeting young urban men), Johnston & Murphy, and Licensed Brands (Levi Strauss' Dockers footwear). Its Hat World unit consists of Lids, Hat Shack, Hat Zone, Head Quarters, Cap Connection, and Lids Kids. Genesco and rival Finish Line, which offered to acquire the firm for about $1.5 billion in 2007, terminated the deal in 2008.
