NEW YORK, Feb. 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Harwood Feffer LLP ([ www.hfesq.com ]) is investigating potential claims against the board of directors of Kenneth Cole Productions, Inc.

On February 24, 2012, Mr. Cole announced his proposal to acquire the Company.  Under the proposal, Company shareholders will receive $15.00 per share in cash.  The offer price represents a scant 15% premium over the closing price of Company stock on the last trading day before the proposal was announced.  Moreover, Mr. Cole current owns approximately 47% of the Company's common stock (representing approximately 89% of the voting power).   

Our investigation concerns whether the board of directors is fulfilling its fiduciary duties, maximizing the value of Kenneth Cole Productions, disclosing all material benefits and costs and obtaining full and fair consideration for Company shareholders.
