Re/Done appoints Phillip Prado as new CEO

Fashion Network09-06-2025
With the appointment of Prado, Re/Done is set to further evolve its product offering, enter new categories, and diversify its channel mix. While wholesale has been a key driver of growth to date, with distribution in over 350 stores across top-tier global retailers in over 30 countries, the brand is increasing its investment in direct-to-consumer.
The brand now has two boutiques in California, another in the Hamptons, in Aspen, and two more stores in Seoul, South Korea. Two years ago, Barron and Mazur also opened their first boutique in Paris, on the chic Rue de Grenelle in the 7th arrondissement.
Further initiatives are expected in the coming months with new markets such as New York, London and further expansion in Asia, and a renewed focus on optimizing the e-commerce business at shopredone.com.
Style Capital, the Milan-based private equity firm that first invested in Re/Done in 2018, has reaffirmed its commitment to the brand, becoming majority shareholder and signaling confidence in the company's long-term potential and international expansion plans. Susan Chokachi, longtime luxury executive and former Gucci chief brand officer and president and CEO of Gucci Americas, joins as chair of the board.
'Now is the right time to reinforce the structure of the company, financially and from a management standpoint, so we are pleased to appoint Phillip and to have Susan's experience to help guide the company into the next era,' said Roberta Benaglia, CEO of Style Capital.
'We have always believed in the vision of Re/Done and are committed to help fuel the brand's growth for the future.'
'Re/Done has always had a distinct position in the market—equal parts iconic brand, cultural movement, and creative platform,' said Chokachi.
'Re/Done has been an industry trailblazer on vintage and upcycling, building a great American brand on creative principles that matter to younger consumers. With Phillip at the helm and the continued support of Style Capital and the brand founders, we are poised to scale the best of the brand's core promise, while honoring its California roots and cultural authenticity.'

Trump wields Alaska and Texas gas as global power play

By inviting Vladimir Putin to Alaska on August 15, Donald Trump is putting the territory the United States bought from tsarist Russia in 1867 back on the world's geopolitical map. The 82-kilometer-wide Bering Strait locks the passage from the Pacific to the Arctic, now increasingly free of ice, for the two nuclear powers. Trump is also putting Alaska back on the world energy map. Since taking office, Trump has urged companies to "Drill, baby, drill." His so-called tariff negotiations have pressured allies into buying American liquefied natural gas (LNG): $750 billion over three years from the European Union (EU), $100 billion from South Korea and an unspecified amount from Japan. Meanwhile, Taiwan, the Philippines and Vietnam have expressed interest in US LNG but have not signed binding agreements. These promises and forced expressions of interest are one thing, but the reality on the ground is another. The European pledge, in particular, is completely unrealistic, as we'll get back to later. There are two possible routes to buy natural gas. One is the Gulf of Mexico, where LNG tankers currently depart with Texan shale gas bound for Europe. However, this option is not ideal for Asian buyers, who must sail south of the equator, cross the expensive Panama Canal and then traverse the Pacific.

Swiss sneaker brand On lifts targets as Europe, Asia fuel demand

Home › News › Business Published August 12, 2025 Download Print Published August 12, 2025 On Holding AG lifted its sales and earnings forecasts for the year after an unexpectedly strong second quarter that saw buyers in Europe and Asia snap up the Swiss sneaker maker's high-priced footwear. Tennis player Roger Federer backs On - On The Roger Federer-backed company now sees revenue growing at least 31% on a constant currency basis this financial year, above analyst estimates and three percentage points higher than the previous target. It translates to net sales of 2.91 billion Swiss francs ($3.6 billion) at current spot rates, On said Tuesday. Zurich-based On has become one of the top performers in the sneaker world, expanding from its core running shoes to other areas like tennis, training and apparel. The brand has grown rapidly since its 2010 founding, eating into market share of bigger players including Nike Inc. and Puma SE. On's shares are up nearly 17% so far this year in New York, outperforming rivals including Adidas company expects its gross profit margin to reach a range of 60.5% to 61% for the year, slightly up from its previous target despite US trade tariffs weighing on the sneaker sector. On cited better-than-expected growth at its expanding network of company-owned stores and its e-commerce channels.'The energy everywhere is so high,' Chief Executive Officer Martin Hoffmann said in an interview. 'We are in a really strong position and the whole ecosystem is supporting our aspirations.' On expects to open another five to 10 stores later this year, including one in its home of Zurich, another in Palo Alto, California, and a couple of locations in South Korea, Hoffmann said. Second-quarter sales rose more than analysts expected to 749 million Swiss francs, up 38% from a year ago in constant currency terms. The gross profit margin reached 61.5%, also better than analysts' estimates. On has the most expensive running shoes in the industry on average and began edging prices higher in the US last month, especially on lifestyle products. That approach hasn't scared off consumers so far, with strong early demand for On's new highly cushioned Cloudsurfer Max model which came to market in July, according to Hoffmann. Revenue in the second quarter jumped 43% in Europe, the Middle East and Africa and 101% in the Asia-Pacific region, significantly outperforming estimates. Growth of about 17% in the Americas was just shy of new store in Singapore generated some of the best opening-weekend business that the company has seen anywhere in the world, Hoffmann said. 'The demand there is so strong,' he said of the Asia-Pacific region. 'Much stronger than what we are willing to supply to the market.' Copyright Bloomberg Tags : Fashion Footwear Sports Business
