Children’s Robes Sold As Sleepwear Recalled
If you recently purchased a robe for your child,
be sure to inspect the tag before you let him sleep
in it. In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product
Safety Commission (CSPC), Federated Department
Stores based out of Cincinnati, Ohio is recalling up
to 50,000 children’s robes sold as sleepwear, rather
than loungewear. |

The robes being
recalled do not meet federal flammability standards,
which require sleepwear (including robes) to be
flame resistant. If the garment ignites, the flame
must self-extinguish to meet the guidelines. The
recalled robes are 100 percent cotton terry cloth
and are distributed under the brand names Aegean,
Jr. By Monarch, b kids, Baby Monarch, Charter Club
and Club Room. The robes have two front patch
pockets and are a wrap style with waist belt and
hood. They were sold in girls and boys sizes 12
months to 14 in sizes S, M, L, and XL, in a variety
of colors and prints. |

The robes were sold at
Macy’s, Bloomingdale’s, Burdines, Goldsmith’s, The Bon Marche,
Rich’s and Lazarus from July 1995 through January 2000 for about
$20 to $50.
Parents should stop their children from wearing these robes
immediately and return the garment to the store where purchased
for a full refund. Consumers may call Federated Department
Stores at (800) 364- 6190 for additional information.
