Bone Fracture Injuries

Until recently, the risks associated with the use of Skechers Shape-ups toning shoes had not been highly publicized. But as more and more reports of toning shoe related injuries surface, the dangers of wearing toning shoes cannot be overlooked. One of the most common types of injuries wearers may sustain when wearing a Skechers Shape-ups or any other similar type of toning shoe is a fracture. A fracture, which is a formal term used for the expression “broken bone”, is a condition in which there is a break in the continuity of a bone. Fractures result when extreme force is applied to a bone or when an unusual, repeated stress is applied to a bone.

Dangerous Product Litigation

Medical experts agree that the rocker-bottom design of Skechers Shape-ups is to blame for the increasing number of toning shoe related fracture injuries. The rocker-bottom design creates an unstable surface for the wearer to walk on. Although the manufacturers of Skechers Shape-ups claim the shoe’s instability is what increases muscle tone, doctors attribute the shoe’s instability to significant gait adjustments. When a person’s gait is altered, serious fracture injuries may result, such as a broken leg.

If you or a loved one suffered a toning shoe related fracture injury, you may be able to file a personal injury claim to recover damages associated with the injury.
