Understand the issue

These jackets have hood drawstrings. Children can get entangled and strangled in the drawstrings that catch on objects, including playground equipment, fences and tree branches.

The recalled Falls Creek Army Flight Jackets are for boys' sizes 4 through 7 and 8 through 18, as well as toddlers' sizes 2T through 5T. These jackets are made of blue or olive nylon fabric and are decorated with assorted patriotic patches on the sleeves, chest and back. The hood is bordered with synthetic brown and tan fur.
