Shoes from the Zeeman chain can have serious health effects when worn. Even the smallest amounts of lead are stored in the body and can cause poisoning over a longer period of time.

Headaches, fatigue, emaciation are the first symptoms. Customers who have the affected slippers at home are asked to return them to a branch of the textile chain. The purchase price will be refunded. The slippers were sold in stores in Berlin, Bremen, Hesse, North Rhine-Westphalia, Rhineland-Palatinate and Saxony.
