Is my product affected?

FUBU brand sweatshirts

  • Brand Jordache Ltd., of New York, N.Y.

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

What happened

Jordache Ltd. is recalling FUBU brand sweatshirts because the fleece fabric fails to meet federal flammability standards and can ignite easily, posing a serious burn injury risk. The recalled sweatshirts are long-sleeved, pullover-style hoodies available in red, black, or silver in ladies' sizes extra-small through large. They feature "FUBU" in large lettering across the chest and have a sewn-in neck label indicating the fabric is 90 percent cotton and 10 percent polyester, made in Peru. The style number FB-3855 appears on a sewn-in label underneath the care label.

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

Hazard

The sweatshirts, which fail to meet federal mandatory standards for fabric flammability, could ignite easily and present a serious risk of burn injuries, in violation of the Federal Flammable Fabrics Act. Fabrics that do not comply with the standard typically burn faster than newspaper.

What should I do?

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

Details from the source

The FUBU brand sweatshirts are made of a fleece fabric that closely resembles that of an inside-outside sweatshirt. They are long-sleeved, pullover style with hoods. They are red, black or silver and are available in ladies sizes extra-small, small, medium and large. The name "FUBU" appears in large lettering across the chest, and a label sewn into the neck reads in part, "FUBU SPORTS, 90 percent cotton, 10 percent polyester, Made in Peru." The recalled sweatshirts are style FB-3855, which is written on sewn-in label underneath the care label.
