Deckers Outdoor sells shoes for every season. Its Teva sandals have become a favorite for the outdoorsy set in the summer, and its UGG Australia boots have become a staple on college campuses and just about everywhere that has snow.
Decker made its debut on Fortune's list in 2005 at No. 25 and has stayed on the list every year since, except 2008. With seven shoe brands, Decker had a record year in 2010, with revenues growing by 23% to top $1 billion.
Fortune's annual roster of high performers reveals the promising saplings that are rising in a difficult economy and some stalwarts that deliver year after year.
