UPDATE: Skechers Toning Shoes Settlement checks were mailed July 12, 2013.
A federal judge yesterday approved a $40 million class action lawsuit settlement with Skechers USA Inc. over claims it used deceptive ads that falsely claimed its toning shoes could help people lose weight and strengthen muscles.
On May 13, U.S. District Judge Thomas B. Russell granted final approval to the Skechers class action settlement, which will provide cash reimbursements to Class Members who submitted valid claims.
More than 520,000 claims were filed for the Skechers toning shoe settlement, which will provide the following benefits:
- $27 – $50 for podded sole shoes
- $20 – $40 for Tone-ups (non-podded sole)
- $42 – $80 for Resistance Runners
The approval comes nearly a year after Skechers reached a deal with the Federal Trade Commission over ads for the toning shoes, which the FTC said misled consumers into believing the footwear would help them lose weight and tone muscles.
Payments from the Skechers class action lawsuit settlement will likely be issued late summer, according to the Settlement Administrator.
The claims filing deadline was April 18, 2013.

The Shape up sneakers may have lead to the tearing of my perioneal tendon in my left foot. Stepped down a deep step while wearing them and felt a pop…. had surgery, out of work for 13 weeks of recovery….
These shoes left corns the size of grapefruits on my feet. You suck sketchers!
While I’ve already filed my claim, it amuses me that there are seven posters here who can’t be bothered to find the actual claim site, not realize that the deadline has come and gone. The good folks here at TCA aggregate information – they have nothing to do with whether your correct address is on file.
Morons. Contact the plaintiff’s firm taking a cut. They’re the ones who maintain that data, not these kind data aggregators whose time you’re wasting.
