The lawsuit alleges that Earth violated the law by labeling its Exer-Walk shoes with the ability to “improve posture,” “strengthen core muscles,” “reduce joint stress,” and “maximize[e] calorie burn” by simply wearing the shoe. Earth denies any wrongdoing or liability whatsoever but has settled the case with a total of $270,000 to be paid to class members.
You are a class member if you purchased an Earth Exer-Walk shoe between Jan. 1, 2009 and Oct. 4, 2015. You must file a claim by March 12, 2016.
The settlement pool is pretty small so the pay out will most likely be small as well. But if you do qualify for a rebate, it’s an easy process to submit your claim.
