Product description
This recall involves Old Navy footed (sizes 6 - 12 months) and non-footed (sizes 12 – 18 months and 18 – 24 months) one-piece sleepers with the style number starting with 476746. They are made of 100% cotton.
Hazard identified
Health Canada's sampling and evaluation program has determined that these products do not meet the flammability requirements for children's sleepwear under Canadian law.
Loose-fitting children's sleepwear can contact ignition sources such as stove elements, candles, and matches more readily than tight-fitting sleepwear, and once ignited will burn rapidly, potentially resulting in severe burns to large areas of the child's body. For this reason, cotton is not permitted in loose-fitting sleepwear.
Neither Health Canada nor Old Navy has received reports of incidents or injuries related to the use of the affected sleepwear.
Number sold
Approximately 15,550 of the recalled products were sold in Canada.
Time period sold
The recalled products were sold from June 2012 to February 2013.
