Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Approximately 1,170 pairs of "Pink Angel" branded embroidered denim shorts for girl infants and toddlers are being recalled. The shorts, sold in sizes 12M to 4T, feature decorative studs on the pockets that can detach, creating small parts that children can choke on. These shorts were sold at Buy Buy Baby retail locations between January 2012 and July 2012. Consumers should immediately stop using these shorts and return them to any Buy Buy Baby store for a full refund.

Risk

The decorative metal studs on the front and rear pockets can loosen and fall off. If a young child finds and swallows these small pieces, they pose a serious choking hazard. One report has been received of a stud detaching, though no injuries have occurred.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your child's clothing for "Pink Angel" branded denim shorts in sizes 12M, 18M, 24M, 2T, 3T, or 4T.
  2. Verify the style number by looking at the hangtag for style B91540 or B11540.
  3. Inspect the shorts for two embroidered butterflies on the left front panel, a bright pink lace belt, and decorative metal studs on the pockets.
  4. Immediately stop using the recalled shorts and keep them out of reach of young children.
  5. Return the shorts to any Buy Buy Baby retail store to receive a full refund of the purchase price.
