Nordstrom of Seattle, Wash., is recalling about 2,030 open vest sweaters by Leith.
The sweaters fail to meet the federal flammability standard for wearing apparel, posing a burn injury hazard to consumers.
No incidents or injuries have been reported.
This recall involves Leith brand women’s textured open vest sleeveless sweaters. The sweaters are 35 ½ inches long. They were sold in black and cream, and in sizes extra small – XS, small – S, medium – M, large – L and extra large – XL. Care labels sewn into the garments read, “Leith,” “Made in China,” “83% cotton” and “17% nylon.”
The sweaters, manufactured in China, were sold at Nordstrom stores nationwide and online at Nordstrom.com from August 2014, through September 2014, for about $70.
Consumers should immediately stop wearing the recalled sweaters and contact Nordstrom to return them for a full refund.
