Build-a-Bear Launches New Skechers Bears
Posted on June 28, 2012
Build-a-Bear Workshop has announced new Skechers bears Twinkle Toes and Hot Lights Bears. The bears have ears that light up when they are pressed. Build-a-Bear and Skechers first partnered in 2000 and since then nearly 4 million bear-sized Skechers shoes have been sold.
Maxine Clark, Build-A-Bear Workshop founder and chief executive bear, says, "Our young Guests love to wear Skechers Kids shoes, and they love to have their bears wear them, too. We are thrilled to expand our relationship with Skechers and celebrate the fun of Skechers shoes with these Twinkle Toes and Hot Lights Bears!"
The Twinkle Toes and Hot Lights Bears cost $23 each. They will be available beginning June 29 in Build-A-Bear Workshop stores and online at buildabear.com. Twinkle Toes and Hot Lights themed clothing, shoes and accessories are also available. Build-a-Bear says shoppers who purchase a Twinkle Toes or Hot Lights Bear will receive a coupon for 25% off any purchase at a U.S. Skechers store or online at skechers.com.
