The publicity is not true. The Australian Competition and Consumer Council ACCC filed a lawsuit against Reebok's advertisements between September 2011 and February 2013.

According to reports, the court said Reebok claimed that walking on its EasyTone shoes would be better than traditional walking shoes for calves, thighs and buttocks.

However, the court held that the propaganda was false and misleading.

These promotional contents are presented in shoeboxes, labels, information cards, brochures and promotional materials in stores.

The court held that Reebok had no reasonable reason to show such publicity to consumers.

In a statement, Ricard said that enterprises claimed that their products had certain performance characteristics and advantages, but they also had responsibilities to ensure that they had accurate and credible evidence support.

According to reports, Reebok has accepted the verdict and paid a fine, and offered to refund 35 Australian dollars per pair of shoes to consumers who suffered losses and injuries.
