Hazard

Though these shoes are marketed for use around water for traction, they become extremely slippery when wet. This poses a risk of slipping and falling on smooth, hard surfaces, such as tile.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using these shoes and immediately return them to any H&M store for a full refund.

Incidents & injuries

No reports of injuries.

Product description

These are pink and blue shoes with a multi-colored trim. The shoes have a pink rubber sole with silver glitter incased within it. A butterfly appliqué is attached to the top and flower emblems are on the back and sides. A label inside the shoes reads "364430" and "MADE IN CHINA."

Sold on

H&M stores in the Northeast U.S. and California from March 2005 through May 2006 for about $8.
