The James Trading Group of Orangeburg, N.Y., is recalling about 1,200 Croker Kids Ireland kids hoodies.
The sweatshirts have a drawstring around the neck area which poses a strangulation hazard to children.
No incidents or injuries have been reported.
This recall involves James Trading Group’s Croker Kids Ireland Sports Hoodie with model number IR6012 printed on a hang tag attached to the hoodie. The kids hoodie has green fabric on the upper chest and arms with a white diagonal stripe across the torso and a blue panel on the bottom half of the hoodie. “Ireland” is printed in white letters across the chest and there are three Shamrock logos embroidered onto a patch on the bottom left side of the hoodie.
The hoodie is 75% cotton and 25% polyester, and was sold in kids sizes “2YR” through “12YR” printed on the hang tag and on the tag sewn into the neck of the garment. “Croker” is printed on the inside neck label on the garment.
The hoodies, manufactured in China, were sold at Irish boutiques and other specialty retail stores nationwide and
online at www.thejtg.com from November 2012, through August 2015, for about $20.
