Foot Locker, Inc. is an American multinational retailer of footwear, sportswear, urban youth apparel and accessories owned by Dick's Sporting Goods. It is headquartered in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, and operates in over 40 countries.
Although established as a brand in 1974 and as a separate company in 1988, Foot Locker's roots date to 1879, as it is a successor corporation to the F. W. Woolworth Company ("Woolworth's"), which was incorporated in 1905 and changed its name to Foot Locker in 2001, as many of its freestanding stores were Kinney Shoes and Woolworth's locations. The company operates the eponymous "Foot Locker" chain of athletic footwear retail outlets (along with "Kids Foot Locker" and "Lady Foot Locker" stores), and other athletic-based divisions including Champs Sports, Footaction USA, House of Hoops, and Eastbay/Footlocker.com, which owns the rights to Final-Score. The company is also famous for its employees' uniforms at its flagship Foot Locker chain, resembling those of referees.
According to the company's filings with the SEC, as of 2023, Foot Locker, Inc. had 2,523 primarily mall-based stores in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia. Nearly 70% of its products are from Nike.
In May 2025, Dick's Sporting Goods announced its intention to acquire Foot Locker for $2.4 billion. The sale was completed in September 2025.
