  • Brand lululemon athletica of Vancouver, B.C.

What happened

Lululemon athletica is recalling certain tops because their elastic draw cords with hard metal or plastic tips located in the hood or around the neck area can snap back and strike the face when pulled or caught on something, potentially causing injury. The recall affects multiple jacket and hoodie styles including the Carry and Go Hoodie, Cool Down Jacket, Dance Studio Jacket, Run With It Jacket, Varsity Hoodie, and others, all identifiable by the embroidered or printed lululemon logo.

According to the recall notice, consumers should stop wearing the affected tops and either remove the draw cord themselves or contact lululemon to request a replacement non-elastic draw cord with written replacement instructions.
