Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

J. Crew is recalling approximately 16,400 girls' Crewcuts brand puffer coats because the buttons on the front can detach. There have been four reports of buttons falling off these coats, which are sold in sizes 2-14 and feature a faux fur trim on the hood. The recalled outerwear comes in dark wine (maroon), navy (blue), and sun washed peony (pink). Consumers should immediately stop using these coats and return them to a J. Crew or Crewcuts store for a full refund.

Risk

The buttons on the front of the coat can easily detach and become a choking hazard if swallowed by young children. While four reports of detached buttons have been received, no injuries have been reported to date.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using the recalled girls' Crewcuts puffer coats and keep them out of reach of young children.
  2. Check the care label sewn into the inside seam of the coat to see if it matches style number C9048 and contains 'FA 15' or 'HO 15'.
  3. Verify if your coat has one of the following PO numbers: 5055794, 5056319, 50565325, 8053606, 8053098, or 8053603.
  4. Return the affected coat to any J. Crew or Crewcuts store for a full refund. If you purchased the coat online, look for an email notification from J. Crew with instructions and a postage-paid shipping label for your return.
  5. Contact J. Crew toll-free at 800-261-8422 anytime or email 24-7@jcrew.com for more information.
