In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Vacation Clothing, doing business as Basix U.S.A., of Lauderdale Lakes, Fla., is voluntarily recalling about 20,000 Children’s Hooded Sweatshirts and Windbreakers with Drawstrings. The garments have a drawstring through the hood, posing a strangulation hazard to children. In February 1996, CPSC issued guidelines to help prevent children from strangling or getting entangled on the neck and waist by drawstrings in upper garments, such as jackets and sweatshirts.
