Men's Sweatshirts

  • Brand Trends Clothing Corp., of Miami, Fla.

Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Target Corp. is recalling Physical Science-brand men's heather-gray hooded sweatshirts with full zippers and "P87" embroidered on the left chest in sizes small through XXL. The fleece fabric inside these sweatshirts fails to meet federal flammability standards and can ignite readily if exposed to flame, creating a serious risk of burn injuries. The sweatshirts have two sewn-in labels, one reading "PHYS.SCI" and the other listing "65% COTTON," "35% POLYESTER," "RN 17730," "MADE IN CHINA," and "SEE REVERSE FOR CARE."

Consumers should immediately stop wearing these sweatshirts and return them to the Target store where they were purchased for a full refund. This recall applies only to the Physical Science-brand sweatshirts described and does not include other garments from that brand.

Hazard

What should I do?

Consumers should immediately stop wearing these sweatshirts and return them to the store where purchased, for a full refund.
