Zumiez is a mall-based, specialty apparel store founded by Tom Campion in 1978, and publicly traded since 2005. Zumiez currently caters to teenagers and young adults. "Offering gear and clothing for the skater, snowboarder, and surfer," Zumiez sells action-sports related clothing and has created an image based around action sports like skateboarding, snowboarding, and motocross. Zumiez is based in Everett, Washington. The current president and CEO is Rick Brooks.

Zumiez stores are designed with an "organized chaos" theme that "that is consistent with many teenagers' lifestyles."[3] Zumiez stores are stocked with couches and video games to encourage customers "to shop for longer periods of time and to interact with each other and the store associates." Each store is approx. 2,900 sq. feet.[2] The stores generally feature the sales floor, a couch with video games and television, changing rooms, and a 'skate shop.' However, this plan may be modified based on space restrictions.

The Zumiez in Massapequa, NY at the Sunrise Westfield Mall and the Zumiez in Miami, FL at Sunset Place does not have a couch or videogames due to their small space. Also Zumiez in Carousel Center in Syracuse, NY does not have a couch or video games as well even though they are what is considered, a high volume store.

Every summer, Zumiez holds their annual "Couch Tour" in which a several skateboarding team travels the country (mall to mall) and holds an outdoor free demo where they show off their best skateboarding skills. Other key parts of the Couch Tour include free live music provided by popular bands, product giveaways, games, and of course - a couch and TV set up with the Tony Hawk skateboarding video game.
