Outerwear (asum) (children's Textile Products)
Recall Summary Children's sneakers from China are being recalled because they contain phthalate-based plasticizers at levels far exceeding safety standards—up to 210 times the allowed limit in the shoe's insole and 4.9 times the limit in the printed design. Phthalates are chemicals that can damage the liver and kidneys with prolonged exposure. The recall affects consumers in South Korea who have purchased these children's athletic shoes.
