Skechers Shape-Ups have been the subject of numerous lawsuits and claims due to alleged injuries and deceptive marketing practices. Many consumers reported serious injuries from wearing Shape-Ups, including:

  • Stress fractures in hips
  • Lower leg fractures
  • Achilles tendon tears
  • Ankle sprains
  • Falls and related injuries

The unstable rocker-bottom sole design is blamed for causing instability and altering users’ normal gait, increasing fall risks

Lawsuits and Settlements

  • In 2012, Skechers agreed to pay $40 million to settle a class action lawsuit and FTC charges of deceptive advertising
  • Over 500,000 claims were filed by consumers who purchased Shape-Ups between 2008-2013
  • Hundreds of individual injury lawsuits have been filed against Skechers

Legal Basis for Claims

Lawsuits against Skechers typically allege:

  1. Product liability for defective and dangerous shoe design
  2. False advertising of health and fitness benefits
  3. Failure to warn of potential injury risks

Expert Legal Guidance

If you believe you’ve been injured by Shape-Ups:

  1. Consult a product liability attorney to review your case.
  2. Be aware that while the class action settlement window has closed, you may still be able to file an individual injury lawsuit.
  3. Document all medical treatments and expenses related to your injury.
  4. Act promptly, as there may be time limits for filing claims.

Remember, defective product cases can be complex. An experienced attorney can help evaluate your claim and pursue appropriate compensation for injuries caused by dangerous products like Shape-Ups

I’m a 9/11 first responder, and I can honestly say that Parker Waichman made me feel like they had my best interest in my VCF case. Ms Candalino & Ms Viti are top notch in my book.
