Sports shoe maker and retailer Skechers USA Inc reported a better-than-expected 36 percent rise in quarterly revenue, helped by pent-up demand following the end of labor disruptions at U.S. West Coast ports that had held up imports, as well as increased shipments of back-to-school items. Skechers shares were up 14.5 percent at $147.03 in after-hours trading, adding nearly $1 billion to the company's market value of $6.68 billion as of Wednesday's close.
