The Hazard!

The dye used to colour the fabric in the tongue lining of the boot contains traces of the chemical benzidine. Expert authorities classify benzidine as a carcinogen and recommend that exposure be limited. Prolonged and direct contact with the boot lining could expose the wearer to the chemical.

What to do...

Stop using your boots and contact Accent Group to arrange a postage paid satchel to be sent to your address for the return of the boots and a refund.
