PUMA USA V-Konstruct Training Jacket with Pockets Recall Information
| Country of Origin | Vietnam, Malaysia and China |
| Recall Date | 04/24/2012 |
| Recall ID | 1031 |
| Recall Number | 12160 |
| Product Type | Drawstrings |
| Hazard | The jacket has a drawstring at the waist that has toggles and is not stitched to the back of the jacket. The drawstring could become snagged or caught in small spaces or vehicle doors and it poses an entanglement hazard. In February 1996, CPSC issued guidelines about drawstrings in children's upper outerwear. In 1997, those guidelines were incorporated into a voluntary standard. Then in July 2011, based on the guidelines and voluntary standard, CPSC issued a federal regulation. CPSC's actions demonstrate a commitment to help prevent children from strangling or getting entangled on neck and waist drawstrings in upper outerwear, such as jackets and sweatshirts. |
