CPSC, abcDistributing Announce Recall of Fleece Pants with Long Waist Drawstring on Jacket
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
Waist drawstring on jacket is longer than 3 inches when the waist is expanded to its fullest width, and there are toggles and knots at the end of the un-tacked drawstring. This can cause the drawstring to catch on protrusions (such as bus doors or handles), potentially causing injury or death if the person is dragged by the vehicle.
