LaJolla Sport is recalling about 600 O'Neill Pluto brand boy's hooded flannel long-sleeve shirts because the drawstrings in the neck pose a strangulation hazard to children. These shirts were sold in dark grey with horizontal black stripes in child sizes small, medium, large, and extra-large. They were sold at various surf and specialty stores nationwide between September 2011 and December 2011 for approximately $60. Consumers should immediately stop using these shirts and remove the drawstring to eliminate the hazard.
The hooded sweatshirts feature drawstrings at the neck which can become entangled or caught, posing a serious strangulation hazard to children. No incidents or injuries have been reported to date.
Consumers should immediately take the recalled sweatshirt from their child and remove the drawstring from the hooded flannel shirt, to eliminate the hazard, and return the garment to the place of purchase or to the company for a full refund.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
