- Skins Inc. (OTCBB: SKNN), a developer of a revolutionary, patented, two-part interchangeable footwear structure, today announced a revolutionary breakthrough in the development of its next generation "Bone". The new Bone will be available in December at selected Skins retailers across the country. The updated design offers additional arch support, increased depth in the toe area, and circulatory airflow that

creates a feeling of barefoot freedom.

Mark Klein, President and CEO of Skins, commented, "Our new Bone provides the ultimate experience in all-day comfort. The improvement in fit, feel, and aesthetics is so dramatic that we have decided to replace the existing Bones at retail and for those customers that purchased the initial version. Our goal will always be to provide the best and most advanced technology to our consumer and we are thrilled with the feedback from our Consumer Partnership Program, which allowed us to accelerate the development of the next generation Bone.

Mr. Klein continued, "Our new bone design has benefited from rigorous fit trials and the assistance of Frank Zambrelli and the design team at Banfi Zambrelli. We also received tremendous input from our retail partners during recent retail forums, both on improving the fit of Skins and Bones and also on enhancing the point-of-sale experience for Skins consumers. Lastly, we have added to our sales team and are looking forward to expanding distribution significantly in the Spring/Summer 2008 season."

Once available, participants in the Consumer Partnership Program will be able to exchange their first generation Bone for the updated Bone at the participating Skins retailer where they originally made their purchase. If the purchase was made through an online retailer, the retailer will send the replacement Bone when they become available.

About Skins Inc.

Skins Inc. created and is continuing to innovate a patented two-part, interchangeable footwear structure consisting of outer collapsible "Skins" and an inner holistic orthopedic support section called the "Bone." The design allows consumers to purchase one inner section, the Bone, and numerous outer Skins, resulting in multiple style variations from the same pair of quality Bones, always with the same feel and fit no matter which Skin is being worn. Skins' objective is to create a new attire concept that allows and encourages consumers to frequently change their footwear, while experiencing equal comfort in all designs of shoes. This uniquely positions the Skins concept between footwear and apparel industries. For more information, visit www.skinsfootwear.com.
