Wire Fraud
In 2003, Cutter & Buck's former CFO, Stephen S. Lowber, pleaded guilty to felony wire fraud relating to lying about the company's revenue in 2000. The Cutter & Buck corporation paid no fines for these misstatements; however, it did agree with the SEC to stronger accounting practices.{{cite news | title = Former Cutter & Buck exec pleads guilty to wire fraud | url = http://seattle.bizjournals.com/seattle/stories/2003/08/04/daily32.html | publisher = Puget Sound Business Journal | accessdate = 2007-11-06 | date=August 7, 2003}}
