H&M is recalling approximately 65,000 pairs of girls' knit leggings sold in various colors and patterns. The leggings were sold for children ages 1 ½ to 8 years and include a plastic belt with a bow-shaped buckle. These garments were sold at H&M stores nationwide and online from August 2012 to April 2014. One report of a choking incident has been received in the United Kingdom, though no injuries have been reported in the U.S. Consumers should immediately stop using the belt and return it to H&M for a $20 gift card.
A metal component on the plastic belt can detach, creating a small part that poses a choking hazard to young children.
Consumers should stop using the belt and remove it from the leggings and contact H&M Customer Service for instructions on returning the belt for a $20 gift card.
