As long as you understand that's likely a permanent shut off solution.

Located in the inside of your LED shoes are a charging port.

Press directly below the charging port two turn the lights on.

Two turn off the lights, press an hold the same button until the lights go off.

Likely he has grown out of them by now and has left school too, stupid.

I was just writing because it helped me too had the same problem.

But there are plenty of other people out here actually looking for a solution to this very problem because I bought my adopted daughter a pair of light up sketchers after the cut of line between " I'm your precious angel who loves whatever you gift me with " to "Mom those are baby shoes" This line crossing happened from the time we ordered them together and when they arrived. I don't want to eat $70 bucks so yeah I actually am looking for real advice from people who could be more informational than gun advice which results in me eating the 70$ bucks. Thank you and God bless

This goes back to the HOH and started many years ago. It just keeps on giving. If you read the entire thread it gives the microwave solution.

To reduce the chances of damaging your microwave, I suggest you put a cup of water in with the shoes. (Or was this previously suggested?)

Yep...5 seconds in a microwave sure did the trick!!

Yes, also killed my battery powered, Bluetooth-enabled, heated coffee mug when visiting relative tried to make a cup of tea :-(

I didn't think to hide the thing.

Just remove the small led mechanism, it's super easy, I did it for my son's sneakers.

I just tried 5 seconds in the microwave and it did the trick! Definitely don't leave in longer than that (maybe even just 2 or 3 seconds)--it's pretty immediate cracking and sizzling, and I'm sure not good for the microwave, either.
