Shoe Co. Blasts Amazon for Private Label Knockoff

It’s cyber Monday and, for many of us, that means sneaking glances at the online price slashing throughout the day in order to net the best deals possible on our holiday purchases.If your shopping takes you to Amazon, you already know that you need to be on alert for knock-off products as the e-tailer itself has admitted it faces challenges in policing the millions of SKUs it offers.But what about products that aren’t exactly counterfeit, rather, simply knock offs of existing designs selling at half the price? And what if the seller is actually Amazon themselves?Let’s jog back a bit. You may be familiar with the San Francisco-based sneaker company, Allbirds, who produces a shoe made of Merino wool and touts an organic, sustainable supply chain. Since its launch in 2014, Allbirds has become an extremely popular brand, which is no doubt enough to inspire copycats.In this case, a strikingly similar style of Allbirds $90 shoe began showing up on Amazon.com under the Amazon private label brand 206 Collective – one Allbirds co-founder Joey Zwillinger is calling “algorithmically inspired” by his shoe. But one big difference between the two is the price: the 206 Collective version was listed around $35.But there was another big difference. Zwillinger recently told CNN that the most frustrating part of the ordeal is that Allbirds open sources its sustainable materials, meaning Amazon’s 206 Collective brand could freely use them without infringing on any patents. Zwillinger penned an open letter to Jeff Bezos last week, blasting Amazon for this move, asking him to “please steal our approach to sustainability” and saying that if Amazon removed the “oil-based products” in its supply chain that the two vendors could “jointly make a major dent in the fight against climate change."Amazon has said that it’s simply offering products “inspired by a trend” and that this “a common practice across the retail industry.” But there might be one thing Amazon could do to graciously level the playing field, and that’s raising the price: the 206 Collective shoe padded its cost by another $10 headed into the holidays.

From the Simplr studios in San Francisco, this is your daily briefing.IntroductionWith your Retail E-Commerce Briefing for today, Friday, November 29th, I'm Vincent Phamvan.REI is choosing to Opt Outside on one of the biggest shopping days of the year. Instead of taking part in the shopping craze, the retailer has shut its doors and is encouraging employees and customers to get outside.First, here are some retail headlines.Dunkin' and Homesick Candles Partner Up On Limited Edition CandlesDunkin’ has partnered with Homesick Candles to make three limited-edition candles for the holidays: Old-Fashioned Donuts, Original Blend Coffee, and Peppermint Mocha Coffee. Dunkin’s director of strategic partnerships said that candles make sense for the brand because people can bring the smell of doughnuts home with them. Homesick and Dunkin’ started working together in early 2019 with the expectation of releasing candles during the holiday season. Homesick isn’t a stranger to collaborating with companies. Earlier this year, the candle company partnered with Tinder to create a Single Not Sorry candle.Piterest Debuts “Pintrest Shop”Pinterest is debuting Pinterest Shop. The online marketplace showcases a number of smaller merchants who sell products on the platform. The rollout of the new feature is timed before Small Business Saturday, an annual occasion encouraging consumers to support small and local businesses during the holidays. Each merchant’s pin board has around 20 products that shoppers can click to reach its checkout page. According to a statement, Pinterest plans to update the Pinterest Shop account with even more products from small businesses.Allbirds Co-Founder Calls Out AmazonAllbirds co-founder, Joey Zwillinger, called out Amazon for copying a pair of their popular environmentally-friendly sneakers. Zwillinger wrote, “We are flattered at the similarities that your private label shoe shares with ours, but hoped the commonalities would include these environmentally-friendly materials as well.” Allbirds is the latest brand to take a shot at Amazon, with Williams-Sonoma suing the retail giant last year over a strikingly similar chair to one its West Elm brand sells. Nike also recently stopped selling on the marketplace to have a more direct relationship with its customers.REI Opts Out Of Black Friday To Go OutsideBlack Friday is one of the biggest shopping days of the year. One retailer though is opting out of the shopping craze today. For the fifth year, REI is shutting its doors on Black Friday. Instead, the retailer is encouraging more people to go outside. As part of its Opt Outside initiative, REI won’t also won’t process online payments, but will pay its 13,000 employees. This year, the company is taking its Opt Outside initiative to a new level.REI is asking its employees and 18 million members to “opt to act” and join a nationwide clean-up effort. Locations of environmental clean-ups are listed on the company’s website. CEO, Eric Artz said, “We’re still going to go outside and play – but this time we’re bringing our work gloves. And we’re inviting you to join us...It’s time to fight for life outdoors – and life on this planet.”REI started its opt outside initiative in 2015 and has been working toward zero-waste operations and challenging the industry to eliminate unnecessary packaging. Artz said this is a first step for the company. They will also be launching 52 weeks of climate action to invite customers to take small steps each of us can make to be more environmentally-conscious.ClosingThanks for listening to this latest episode of the Retail E-Commerce Briefing.

When I began to do some research on Joey Zwillinger, the co-founder of the sustainable footwear brand Allbirds, it was hard not to notice the pull quote from Time magazine on the company’s website that referred to its Merino wool sneakers as “the world’s most comfortable shoe”, or when Refinery 29 said “we won’t blame you if never wear any other shoe ever again”. Clearly, the brand that Zwillinger, a biotech engineer, created with Tim Brown, a former football player from New Zealand, has fans, including the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio who invested early in the company – raising 2.7 million dollars in seed funding before it officially launched in 2016. Since then, Allbirds has become a shining example of sustainable style at its finest . The breathable temperature-regulating wool used to make the company’s signature sneakers uses 60% less energy than a typical sneaker. But, the brands sustainable initiatives do not stop there –It turned to recycled plastic bottles to craft the shoe’s laces. Allbirds came up with a brand new material that they call SweetFoam, which is an eco-friendly alternative to the traditional petroleum-based shoe soles, made from sugarcane off shoots. The company’s revolutionary material is an open-source technology so that other brands can also take advantage of the carbon negative material. Oh, and even the shoe boxes the Allbirds footwear comes in are made from 90% recycled cardboard. Currently, the company, which reportedly is now a $1.4 billion dollar business, is moving quickly to expand out from its original direct-to-consumer selling strategy. It already has 12 stores across the globe and intends to open another 20 in the next year. It has also expanded its inventory range, launching a weather-resistant collection called Mizzle that is also crafted from all-natural materials and the cleverly named Sole Mates socks that are made from TrinoTM –a new proprietary yarn that blends together the natural fibers of the brand’s Tree and Merino materials. Without a doubt, the company is riding the crest of the current sustainable fashion wave. But after speaking with Zwillinger, there is no question that building a globally successful business isn’t his primary goal but instead, helping to build a better world for the future is.

From the Simplr studios in San Francisco, this is your weekly briefing.  IntroductionWith your "Retail and E-Commerce  Briefing" for today, Friday, September 27, 2019, I'm Vincent Phamvan.Allbirds co-CEO said they are looking into legal action against Amazon. His statements come on the heels of revelations that Amazon is selling shoes similar to one of their popular styles for half the price. He admits that in the business of fashion, copycats are something you come across. But given the size of Amazon, this situation is different.First, here are some retail headlines.Gap Inc. Announces New President and CEO of AthletaGap. Inc. announced that former Sephora executive, Mary Beth Laughton, was appointed as president and CEO of its Athleta brand. She is set to start the new position in late October. Laughton was most recently executive vice president of omni retail for Sephora and has previously served in leadership roles at Nike. She brings more than 20 years of experience with digital operations and e-commerce to her new role with Athleta.Peloton Sets Price of IPOExercise bike and treadmill company, Peloton, has priced its initial public offering at $29 dollars. Peloton is offering 40 million Class A common stock to the public as part of its IPO. The company filed to go public in August, reporting $915 million in total revenue for the year, an increase of 110 percent from the prior fiscal year. Peloton is looking to raise $1.16 billion with a valuation of more than $8 billion.  Amazon Unveils new Alexa DevicesAmazon unveiled a variety of new Alexa powered devices on Wednesday. The new lineup includes a new Echo Dot with a built-in clock, Alexa powered earbuds, a high-end speaker, and a cheaper version of the Eero mesh WiFi system after acquiring Eero earlier this year. Amazon also showed the development of new Alexa capabilities like Amazon Guard, which turns some devices into security cameras. Getting Alexa in more places is key for Amazon’s broader strategy as competition from Google and others heats up. Amazon’s latest lineup comes after Facebook and Google have both recently refreshed their home device offerings.     Walmart's Allswell Brand Expands Into Bath CategoryWalmart’s Allswell home brand has expanded into the bath category. Allswell’s announcement indicates that Walmart may be betting on its homegrown brands to build its e-commerce business, rather than ones they’ve recently acquired. In 2016, Walmart acquired Jet for $3 billion and soon after acquired women’s apparel site ModCloth and menswear brand Bonobos. However, the acquisitions may not be turning out as well as they hoped.  The company nixed the lead executive role at Jet in June and in July reportedly indicated they may sell ModCloth. Focusing on its homegrown brands in growing categories bodes well for the retail giant. Between 2013 and 2018, the home goods market in brick-and-mortar and online grew 20.9 percent and 88.7 percent.  For the company, expanding beyond mattresses could also be essential to standing out as the market gets more saturated. Other direct to consumer brands have utilized the same strategy. Casper has expanded into other categories like dog beds, night lights, and recently CBD. Allbirds and Away have also entered other categories beyond those they originally launched in. Allbirds Looking Into Legal Action Against AmazonAllbirds co-CEO, Joey Zwillinger, said that the sneaker company is looking into legal action against Amazon. His comment comes after revelations that the e-commerce giant is selling a shoe with striking similarities to Allbirds’ popular sneakers called the Wool Runners. Amazon’s shoe is being sold for $45 dollars, Allbirds’ signature shoe costs $95 dollars.  Allbirds, which started selling shoes in 2016 and was recently valued at $1.4 billion, isn’t a stranger to lookalike shoes. Zwillinger said there are probably a couple dozen copycats. He said the rate at which lookalike shoes appear is startling and that quote, “It’s part of the business of fashion, as I’ve come to learn,” end quote. However, given the size and omnipresent influence of Amazon, Zwillinger said this situation is different.Zwillinger admits its risky territory. While they’re a team of 500 people total, he suspects Amazon has double that in just lawyers. But, Zwillinger said they are, “...looking at it. We look carefully every time this happens,”.ClosingThanks for listening to the latest episode of the "Retail and E-Commerce  Briefing".
