Target has issued a recall for over 200,000 pairs of children’s sandals due to a significant choking hazard that could lead to “serious injury or death.”
The US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) revealed on Thursday that approximately 211,000 Cat & Jack Toddler Girls’ Sequerah Sandals are included in this recall.
This recall stems from a risk that the sandals’ decorative pearls may detach, creating a choking hazard for children.
According to the CPSC, the decorative pearls on the sandals can come loose, posing a potentially life-threatening choking hazard.
The sandals under scrutiny are tan, featuring two raffia straps adorned with gold buckles and plastic pearls. Branding can be found on both the soles and bottoms of the sandals.
The shoes were sold in sizes 5T through 12T.
The sandals were sold at Target stores across the country and online at the retailer’s website from January 2026 through May 2026 for about $20.
Target has received 23 reports of pearls falling off the shoes.
No injuries have been reported so far with the recall.
Consumers are urged to stop using the recalled sandals immediately, keep them away from children and contact Target for a full refund.
