CPSC, Good Lad Apparel Announce Recall of Infant Girls' Garment and
Shoes
W ASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission (CPSC), Good Lad Apparel of Philadelphia, Pa., is voluntarily
recalling about 52,000 infant girls' garments and sandals. Small,
decorative items on the garments can detach, posing a choking hazard to
young children.
Good Lad has received three reports of incidents involving the
decorative items. A child swallowed a decorative ladybug and two others
began to choke on decorative flowers. There have been no reports of
injury.
This recall involves three separate garment sets. Two of the
garment sets include a newborn and infant dress with sandals. The other
includes an infant capri set with sandals. The dresses were sold in
either, red and yellow or chambray. Both have decorative items like
ladybugs and flowers attached. The capri sets were sold in lime, coral,
yellow and purple with flower attachments around the neckline and on the
sandals. The Good Lad logo is printed on a label inside of the garment,
along with the words, "Good Lad of Philadelphia." The garments were made
for ages 3 to 24 months.
Department stores sold the infant garments nationwide from January
2002 through April 2002 for about $15.
Consumers should stop using these garments and sandals
immediately. Consumers should return the garments to the store where
purchased to receive a refund. For more information, consumer s should
contact the company toll-free at (877) 599-5530 between 7:30 a.m. and
4:30 p.m. ET Monday through Friday.
