What went wrong
The notice saysThe recalled sneakers violate the mandatory standard for consumer products with button cell and coin batteries because the lithium coin batteries can be accessed easily by children, posing an ingestion hazard. Additionally, the packaging and product do not have the warnings required under Reese’s Law. When button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns, and death.
Button and coin batteries are a particular danger when swallowed, which is why a federal rule published in 2023 (under Reese’s Law) requires battery compartments on consumer products to resist opening by children. Light-up shoes fall under those rules. If a shoe’s battery cover opens without a tool, keep the shoes away from young children.
How to tell if your pair is affected
Product description in the noticeThis recall involves Raychy Children’s Light Sneakers Unisex. The sneakers are available in red, black, and blue, each featuring a distinctive spiderweb-patterned on top of the sneakers and soles that light up when walking. The shoes bear the "Fashion" label printed on the tongue.
The notice gives no style numbers or barcodes, so you match on what it does give: the brand and style (Raychy Children’s Light Sneakers Unisex), the store (Amazon) and the “made in” label (China). If a detail does not line up, the recall contact below can confirm.
What the notice tells you to do
RemedyConsumers should stop using the sneakers immediately and contact Carina and Rambo for a refund. Consumers will be asked to cut the shoe tongue, write "RECALLED" on both sides of the sneakers using a permanent marker, and provide a photo of disposal to [email protected] in order to receive the refund. Note: Button cell and coin batteries are hazardous. Batteries should be disposed of or recycled by following local hazardous waste procedures.

How this recall compares
- With about 500 units, this is the 93rd largest of the 95 footwear recalls in our archive that give a U.S. unit count. The median recall in the archive covers about 7,200 units, so this one is well below typical size.
- 41 other footwear recalls in the archive cite the same kind of hazard (choking), 41 of them in children’s footwear. The earliest in this group dates from 1993.
- The notice gives a price of $28. For sneakers and athletic shoes in the archive the typical stated price is about $38, so this pair sat at the cheaper end of its group.
- No incidents were reported before this recall. That is true of 36 of the 95 detailed notices in the archive: firms often recall after their own testing or a supplier finding, not after injuries.
