If you purchased any Skechers footwear called Shape-ups, Resistance Runner, Shape-ups Toners/Trainers, and Tone-ups from August 1, 2008 until and including August 13, 2012 in the United States, a settlement may affect your rights.
A settlement has been proposed in a class action lawsuit, captioned Grabowski v. Skechers U.S.A., Inc., No. 3:12-cv-00204 (W.D. Ky.). The lawsuit concerns claims that Skechers violated certain state laws and consumer protection statutes in connection with the marketing and sale of its toning shoes. Skechers denies those allegations.
You may be a class member if you purchased eligible Skechers toning shoes from August 1, 2008, until and including August 13, 2012 in the United States.
Upon preliminary review, the Court finds that the proposed settlement agreement is fair, reasonable, and adequate. Under the agreement, Skechers has agreed to establish a $40 million, non-reversionary fund to be used for the payment of class claims.
