does this mean that reebok lied about the benefits of these shoes? they re not the only company that has made similar claims about these types of shoes. reebok says absolutely not. it stands by the product. it continues to say the product works and it will continue to sell those. nonetheless it has entered into a $25 million agreement with the federal trade commission and under the agreement it is going to pay $25 million so that customers can get a refund if they so desire. they will not make the same claims in advertisements. they ve told them to pull downny advertisements in the store. the claim was 11% improved muscle tone. and 28% in the buttocks area and claims they never backed that up with scientific hard data.
