What happened

The shoes contain dimethylfumarate (DMF) at a concentration of 3.49 mg/kg in the sachet. Dimethylfumarate is a substance that causes strong skin sensitization upon contact and is banned in consumer products under Commission Decision 2009/251/EC. The affected shoes are mustard-colored suede with light brown leather or artificial leather trim, a mustard-colored textile tongue and instep padding, a two-tone light brown rubber anti-slip sole, a yellow insole, and contain the internal code P99-08E-576 41.

The recall was initiated in Italy and authorities have ordered the product withdrawn from the market and recalled from consumers, with seizure and destruction of remaining stock. The source does not specify what remedy is available to affected consumers or what steps they should take.
