Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Long-Term Debt	Note 8 Long-Term Debt Credit Facility On January 16, 2026, we entered into the Fourth Amendment (the "Fourth Amendment") to the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of January 31, 2018 (as amended, the "Credit Facility" or the "Credit Agreement") by and among us, certain of our subsidiaries, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A. as agent, to, among other things, extend the maturity date to January 16, 2031. In addition, the Fourth Amendment (i) makes conforming changes to replace the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate with the Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average ("CORRA") with respect to Canadian borrowings, and (ii) removes the credit spread adjustment and thereby reduces the Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) interest rate with respect to domestic borrowings. The Fourth Amendment also adjusts the pricing grid for the Applicable Margin (as defined in the Credit Agreement) on our revolving credit facility by adding a new level III, with margins continuing to be based on average daily excess availability. The Total Commitments (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the revolving loans remains at $332.5 million. The Credit Facility continues to be secured by certain assets of the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company, including accounts receivable, inventory, payment intangibles and deposit accounts. Equity interests, certain equipment, intellectual property and most leasehold interests are specifically excluded. The Credit Facility continues to provide for the borrowing base to include real estate as those assets are added or maintained as collateral and contains customary real estate covenants. As of January 31, 2026, we had outstanding revolver borrowings under the Credit Facility of $3.4 million (CAD $4.6 million) related to GCO Canada ULC. We had outstanding letters of credit of $6.2 million under the Credit Facility at January 31, 2026. These letters of credit support insurance and lease indemnifications. Deferred financing costs incurred in Fiscal 2026 of $1.6 million related to the amended Credit Facility were capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the new agreement. The remaining balance of deferred financing costs incurred related to the previous Credit Facility are being amortized over the term of the new agreement. These costs are included in other noncurrent assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Credit Facility is a revolving credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $332.5 million, including (i) for the Company and other borrowers formed in the U.S., a $70.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a domestic swingline subfacility of up to $45.0 million, (ii) for GCO Canada ULC, a revolving credit subfacility in an amount not to exceed $70.0 million, which includes a $5.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a swingline subfacility of up to $5.0 million, and (iii) for Genesco (UK) Limited, a revolving credit subfacility in an aggregate amount not to exceed $100.0 million, which includes a $10.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a swingline subfacility of up to $10.0 million. Any swingline loans and any letters of credit and borrowings under the Canadian and U.K. subfacilities will reduce the availability under the Credit Facility on a dollar for dollar basis. We have the option, from time to time, to increase the availability under the Credit Facility by an aggregate amount of up to $200.0 million subject to, among other things, the receipt of commitments for the increased amount. In connection with this increased facility, the Canadian revolving credit subfacility may be increased by no more than $15.0 million and the UK revolving credit subfacility may be increased by no more than $100.0 million. The aggregate amount of the loans made and letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility are limited to the lesser of the facility amount ($332.5 million or, if increased as described above, up to $532.5 million) or the "Borrowing Base", as defined in the Credit Agreement. Note 8 Long-Term Debt, Continued We are required to pay a commitment fee on the actual daily unused portions of the Credit Facility at a rate of 0.25% per annum. The Credit Facility also permits us to incur senior debt in an amount up to the greater of $500.0 million or an amount that would not cause our ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA to exceed 5.0:1.0 as of the date of incurrence (and after giving effect to any such incurrence), provided that certain terms and conditions are met. In addition, the Credit Facility contains certain covenants that, among other things, restrict additional indebtedness, liens and encumbrances, loans and investments, acquisitions, dividends and other restricted payments, transactions with affiliates, asset dispositions, mergers and consolidations, prepayments or material amendments to certain material documents and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements. The Credit Facility does not require us to comply with any financial covenants unless Excess Availability, as defined in the Credit Agreement, is less than the greater of $22.5 million or 10% of the loan cap. If and during such time as Excess Availability is less than the greater of $22.5 million or 10% of the loan cap, the Credit Facility requires us to have a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.0:1.0. Excess Availability was $305.7 million at January 31, 2026. The Credit Facility contains customary events of default, which if any of them occurs, would permit or require the principal of and interest on the Credit Facility to be declared due and payable as applicable. We were in compliance with all the relevant terms and conditions of the Credit Facility as of January 31, 2026. U.K. Facility Agreement On November 2, 2022, Schuh entered into the Facility Agreement with Lloyds for a £19.0 million revolving credit facility. The Facility Agreement was extended through February 28, 2026 and bears interest at 2.35% over the SONIA Rate. The Facility Agreement was amended during the first quarter of Fiscal 2027 on February 20, 2026 to, among other things, increase the commitment of the credit facility to £20.0 million, extend the maturity date to August 20, 2027 and it will bear interest at 1.75% over the SONIA Rate. This Facility Agreement replaced Schuh's Facility Letter. The Facility Agreement includes certain financial covenants specific to Schuh. Following certain customary events of default outlined in the Facility Agreement, payment of outstanding amounts due may be accelerated or the commitments may be terminated. The Facility Agreement is secured by charges over all of the assets of Schuh, and Schuh's subsidiary, Schuh (ROI) Limited. Pursuant to a Guarantee in favor of Lloyds in its capacity as security trustee, Genesco Inc. has guaranteed the obligations of Schuh under the Facility Agreement and certain existing ancillary facilities on an unsecured basis. As of January 31, 2026, we did not have any borrowings under the Schuh Facility Agreement and were in compliance with all the relevant terms and conditions of the Facility Agreement as of January 31, 2026.
