Skechers Settlement - Do You Qualify?


Did you buy a pair of Skechers Shape-ups, Resistance Runner, Toners or Tone-ups shoes? You may be eligible for a refund. The FTC charged Skechers with making unfounded claims that shoes are “toning shoes” and would help people lose weight.  Shape-ups, introduced in April 2009, cost consumers about $100 a pair and were extremely popular! But  consumers now say they didn’t lose weight, they gained weight! Apparently Skechers used spokespeople (celebrities) that had a stake in the company and Skechers failed to let consumers know that. So, between the unfounded claims and everything else the FTC has ordered that Sketchers refund $40 million dollars to consumers. You may qualify for a refund if you have purchased any of these shoes!

See if you are eligible for a piece of the  Skechers $40 million settlement
