CPSC recall 26053 · announced October 30, 2025 · Grundens · 8,850 units affected
The product
This recall involves the Youth Clipper 282 Jacket and Youth Zenith 282 Jacket sold in youth sizes 8 - 12. Both jackets have a drawstring in the hood and "Grundens" printed on the left chest. Inside the jacket there is a black label with "Grundens" and the country of origin in white lettering. The youth Clipper jacket was sold in an orange color and the youth Zenith jacket was sold in orange, navy, and camouflage colors.
The hazard
A drawstring in the hood of the recalled jackets presents a substantial product hazard as it can get caught on objects and cause death or serious injury to children, due to strangulation.
