Carhartt has recalled about 32,505 pairs of Men's Force Relaxed 5 Pocket Work Pants. An elastic drawstring at the ankle of the pants can form an extended loop that can catch on objects or the wearer's feet, posing a trip and fall hazard. The pants were sold in gray and brown colors and feature a stretch twill fabric with five pockets. No injuries have been reported to date.
The elastic cord at the ankle hem can pull out and create a loop that catches on external objects or the wearer's other leg, potentially causing the user to trip and fall.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled work pants and return the pants to Dicks Sporting Goods or Carhartt for a full refund. If consumers want to keep the pants, they can cut the loop out of the hems and send a photo to Carhartt at just_ask_us@carhartt.com showing proof that the cord was removed to get a full refund.
Includes all sizes.
