Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Business Segments | BUSINESS SEGMENTS During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company’s portfolio of brands was realigned into the following four operating segments, which the Company has determined to be reportable operating segments. All prior period disclosures have been restated to reflect these new reportable operating segments.
• | Wolverine Outdoor & Lifestyle Group, consisting of Merrell® footwear and apparel, Cat® footwear, Hush Puppies® footwear and apparel, Chaco® footwear, Sebago® footwear and apparel and Cushe® footwear;
• | Wolverine Boston Group, consisting of Sperry® footwear and apparel, Saucony® footwear and apparel and Keds® footwear and apparel;
• | Wolverine Heritage Group, consisting of Wolverine® footwear and apparel, Bates® uniform footwear, Harley-Davidson® footwear and HyTest® safety footwear; and
• | Wolverine Multi-Brand Group, consisting of Stride Rite® footwear and apparel and the Company's multi-brand consumer-direct businesses.
The reportable segments are engaged in designing, manufacturing, sourcing, marketing, licensing and distributing branded footwear, apparel and accessories. Reported revenue for the reportable operating segments includes revenue from the sale of branded footwear, apparel and accessories to third-party customers; revenue from third-party licensees and distributors; and revenue from the Company’s consumer-direct businesses. The Company also reports “Other” and “Corporate” categories. The Other category consists of the Company’s leather marketing operations and sourcing operations that include third-party commission revenues. The Corporate category consists of unallocated corporate expenses, including restructuring and impairment costs. The Company’s operating segments are determined based on how the Company internally reports and evaluates financial information used to make operating decisions. The operating segment managers all report directly to the chief operating decision maker. The accounting policies of each operating segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies set forth in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. Company management uses various financial measures to evaluate the performance of the reportable operating segments. The following is a summary of certain key financial measures for the respective fiscal periods indicated. All prior period amounts have been restated to reflect the new reportable operating segments.

The Company does not believe that it is dependent upon any single customer because no customer accounts for more than 10% of consolidated revenue in any year. During fiscal 2016, the Company sourced approximately 98% of its footwear products from third-party suppliers located primarily in the Asia Pacific region. For fiscal 2016, the remainder was produced at Company-owned manufacturing facilities in the U.S. All apparel and accessories are sourced from third-party suppliers. While changes in suppliers could cause delays in manufacturing and a possible loss of sales, management believes that other suppliers could provide similar products on comparable terms.
