U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Orders Recall of Youth Sweatshirts Due to Strangulation Hazard
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has announced a recall of youth sweatshirts manufactured by Allura Imports. These garments, which feature a bobcat logo, have been found to contain drawstrings in the neck area, posing a strangulation risk to children. This recall is in response to federal safety regulations that prohibit drawstrings in the neck and hood areas of children's upper outerwear due to the potential for serious injury or death. The sweatshirts were sold in youth sizes 8/10 and 12/14 at Gabe's stores between October and November 2025. Consumers are advised to immediately stop using the sweatshirts and remove the drawstrings or follow the company's instructions for a remedy. No injuries have been reported so far.
