A Grandmother’s Legacy Becomes a Luxury Shoe Brand

SkyStruk is more than a luxury women’s footwear brand—it’s a story of legacy, elegance, and fierce entrepreneurship. Behind this fast-rising fashion label is Skylar Porter, a visionary creative who transformed the memory of her beloved grandmother “Momoo” (who owned Speedway Printing on Elm Street for many years) into a stunning brand that now walks its way into wardrobes across Naples, Florida and across the country.

A proud Morris County, New Jersey native and graduate of The Academy of Saint Elizabeth in Morristown, Skylar’s journey is as meaningful as the high-end designs she creates. Each SkyStruk shoe is named after a cherished memory with her grandmother, making every step her customers take part in a sentimental, stylish journey.


From Morristown to Naples: A Bold Step Toward Entrepreneurship

Skylar Porter always had an eye for design, but her deep personal connection to fashion was rooted in time spent with her grandmother. After graduating high school in Morristown, working in the New Jersey corporate world, and then relocating from Morris County to Naples, Florida, Skylar didn’t just bring her talents—she got her purpose.

With no large team or corporate funding, she launched SkyStruk, her luxury women’s footwear brand, in 2024. In just over a year, the SkyStruk online store has become a staple for women in Naples and across the country seeking high-end, statement-making shoes with heart and heritage.

  • Quality luxury designs rooted in personal stories
  • Every style is named after a Momoo memory

  • A focus on empowering women through confidence and self-expression

Each shoe in the SkyStruk collection is designed with intentional craftsmanship, appealing to women who value fashion that is unique and different.


Naples Embraces SkyStruk: Community Recognition

In a remarkably short time, Skylar Porter and SkyStruk have earned admiration and buzz across Southwest Florida.

  • In May 2025, SkyStruk was named one of three finalists in the Women’s Apparel category in the Best of Gulfshore Awards.
  • This September 2025, Skylar herself will be honored as one of the “40 Under 40” top entrepreneurs by Gulfshore Business, a prestigious recognition of rising leaders in the region.

These accolades underscore not just the quality of SkyStruk’s footwear but the impact Skylar is making as a young, visionary entrepreneur in the luxury fashion industry.


A SkyStruk Woman: Who She Is

SkyStruk shoes are designed for the modern woman who wants to stand out with sophisticated confidence. Whether she’s attending an event, running a business, or brunching with friends on the Green in Morristown or Fifth Avenue South in Naples, she wears her story with sparkle and strength.

The brand’s collections feature:

  • Crystallized heels
  • Boots with a country flair
  • Comfy flats
  • Elegant silhouettes
  • Vibrant seasonal colorways

Each release pays homage to both Skylar’s creative eye and the timeless influence of her grandmother. SkyStruk is more than fashion—it’s memory made wearable.


Giving Back in Style: Fashion With a Purpose

Luxury meets purpose in everything Skylar Porter does—including giving back. As the founder of SkyStruk, Skylar proudly supports Wine Women & Shoes, a nationally recognized, fashion-forward fundraising platform that brings communities together to raise funds for important causes.

Skylar has been an enthusiastic participant in multiple Wine Women & Shoes events, helping to support their mission of empowering organizations that make a real difference. Two of the standout causes close to her heart include:

  • Cancer Advisors, which provides expert guidance and second opinions to cancer patients, helps them understand their diagnosis and confidently move forward with a personalized plan of Care.
  • Called to Care, an initiative that benefits Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital, ensuring children receive exceptional healthcare and heartfelt support during their most critical moments.

Through these events, Skylar uses her brand and platform to do more than create stylish footwear—she helps walk the path of hope, healing, and community impact.
