Leases [Abstract]

Lessee, Leases [Policy Text Block]

The Company’s leases consist primarily of corporate offices, retail stores, distribution centers, showrooms, vehicles and office equipment. The Company leases assets in the normal course of business to meet its current and future needs while providing flexibility to its operations. The Company enters into contracts with third parties to lease specifically identified assets. Most of the Company’s leases have contractually specified renewal periods. Most retail store leases have early termination clauses that the Company can elect if stipulated sales amounts are not achieved. The Company determines the lease term for each lease based on the terms of each contract and factors in renewal and early termination options if such options are reasonably certain to be exercised.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the effect the pandemic had on the Company’s leased properties, the Company has been actively seeking rent relief from its landlords. The Company considered the FASB staff guidance issued in April 2020 in relation to accounting for lease concessions made in connection with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and elected to apply the temporary practical expedient to account for rent deferrals and abatements as though the enforceable rights and obligations existed in each contract. Depending on the timing of the future payments, amounts deferred and payable in future periods have been included in “Other accrued liabilities” and “Other liabilities” on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company continued to recognize lease expense on a straight-line basis for its leases over the related lease terms.
