Note 6. Financing Arrangements
Convertible Senior Notes, page 23

3.       We note that you amortize the debt discount and debt issuance costs
associated with the
         liability component of your 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes over the
remaining term.
         Please tell us how your amortization policy complies with the guidance
in ASC 470-20-
         35-13 requiring amortization of such items over the expected life of a
similar liability that
         does not have an associated equity component.

4.       We note that for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share
you appear to presume
         cash settlement of the principal amount of your Convertible Senior
Notes upon conversion
         and utilize the treasury stock method. Explain in sufficient detail
how you determined it
         was not appropriate to presume share settlement and apply the
if-converted method and
         how you determined use of the treasury stock method was appropriate.
See ASC 260-10-
         45-45 through -47, ASC 260-10-45-40 through -41, and ASC

5.       We note that you derive revenues through various channels, including
wholesale, retail,
         and e-commerce operations. Your disclosures throughout your results of
operations
         discussions indicate that the e-commerce channel had a positive impact
on your sales and
         gross margins during the three and nine month periods ended September
30, 2020. In
         future filings, to the extent results and trends are not materially
consistent across all sales
         channels, please quantify in dollars and/or percentage change the
impact each channel had
         and is expected to have on your consolidated and operating segment
sales and gross
         margins.
        We remind you that the company and its management are responsible for
the accuracy
and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action
or absence of
action by the staff.
