What was recalled

The long-sleeved, fleece sweatshirts sold only in the color gray, bear the phrase "Made in USA" on the neckline label, and have item number 1313 or 1249 printed on the side seam label. These sweatshirts are labeled as being 80 percent cotton and 20 percent polyester. Sweatshirts made in Singapore are not included in this recall.

Hazard

The sweatshirts, which fail to meet federal mandatory standards for fabric flammability, could ignite readily and present a serious risk of burn injuries, in violation of the Federal Flammable Fabrics Act. Fabrics that do not comply with the standard typically burn faster than newspaper.

Injuries

None reported.
