This amendment No. 8 to Schedule 13D (this Amendment No. 8), amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on February 8, 2017 (the Initial 13D and, as amended and supplemented through the date of this Amendment No. 8, collectively, the Schedule 13D) by the Reporting Persons, relating to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Shares), of Deckers Outdoor Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the Issuer). Capitalized terms not defined in this Amendment No. 8 shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

The information set forth in response to each separate Item below shall be deemed to be a response to all Items where such information is relevant.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplementally amended as follows:

On March 8, 2018, Marcato International delivered 750,000 Shares to cover a previously reported short position with respect to such number of Shares.

On March 8, 2018, Marcato Encore Fund delivered 146,237 Shares to cover a previously reported short position with respect to such number of Shares.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(a) As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially own any securities of the Issuer.

(b) As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially own any securities of the Issuer.

(c) The transactions by the Reporting Persons in the securities of the Issuer during the past sixty days are set forth in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 8, Exhibit M and Exhibit N, which are incorporated herein by reference. Except as set forth in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 8, Exhibit M and Exhibit N, there have been no other transactions by the Reporting Persons in the securities of the Issuer in the past sixty days.

(d) Not applicable

(e) As a result of the transactions described herein, on March 7, 2018 each of the Reporting Persons ceased to be a beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Shares. The filing of this Amendment No. 8 represents the final amendment to the Schedule 13D and constitutes an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplementally amended as follows:

The information set forth in Item 4 is incorporated herein by reference.

As previously disclosed in the Schedule 13D, certain of the Reporting Persons had entered into cash-settled total return swaps with respect to the Shares. Since the date of Amendment No. 7, Marcato International entered into swaps referencing an additional 300,000 Shares under identical terms as those described in Amendment No. 7. As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons have disposed of all cash-settled total return swaps and are no longer a party to any swap arrangements with respect to the Shares.

Except for the arrangements described herein, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, there are no other contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the persons named in Item 2 of the Schedule 13D and between such persons and any other person with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to, transfer or voting of any of the securities, finders fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profit or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
