WASHINGTON, DC -- In coordination with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), R. H. Macy & Co., Inc., New York, NY, is voluntarily recalling three infant/toddler garments, because the zipper slide can detach and create a potential choking hazard for young children. Macy's has received one report of such an incident. No injuries have been reported. These items are no longer being sold. Consumers who have these garments should take them away from children immediately and return them to Macy's or Bullock's stores for a refund. The three items being recalled are:

  1. A zipper-front hooded sweatshirt in navy, red, or white. The shirts are labeled, "MACY BABY" or "BULLOCK'S BABY," inside the neck. Each sweatshirt has the word "CREW" on the front and "NAVIGATOR" and "DEPARTMENT CREW" on the back. The sweatshirt is 100 percent cotton and was available in infant/toddler sizes XS through XL. Approximately 1,800 of these garments were sold in Macy's and Bullock's stores beginning in December 1992, originally for $26.00 each.
  2. A "MINE ALONE" nautical-style hooded jacket with zipper front in white with navy blue trim. The trim bears the words "Sail Away" and there is a nautical patch on the left front of the jacket. The jacket has a 100 percent nylon shell and a 100 percent cotton lining and was available in infant sizes 3 through 24 months in Macy's stores in the Northeast and South. Approximately 490 of these jackets were originally sold for $24.00 each beginning in February 1993.
  3. A "MINE ALONE" zipper-front hooded windbreaker in royal blue, lime green, and turquoise colorblocks. The windbreaker is 100 percent nylon and was available in infant sizes 3 through 24 months in all Macy's and Bullock's stores. Approximately 180 of the windbreakers were originally sold for $17.00 each in 1993.

Macy's notified the overseas producers of these garments who indicated they have not sold these items to other companies.

The sweatshirts, jackets and windbreakers may be returned to any Macy's or Bullock's store (with the receipt, if available), for a full refund of the purchase price. Macy's has established a toll-free number to assist consumers with questions they may have about the recall. Consumers with questions should call 1-800-899-5698, between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. ET.
