⚠️ Risk

null The protruding loops and toggles in the neck area may become caught (for example, in the playground, in automatically closing doors, on escalators). If the garment tightens around the neck of the child, the child may be strangulated. The trapped loop or toggles can pull on the child unexpectedly and the child may fall and suffer injuries. The product does not comply with the relevant European standard EN 14682.

Children’s jacket with hood, lining and zip fastener. The hood has an elastic drawstring with plastic toggles. When the hood opening is at its largest the drawstring forms a protruding loop. Size: 6
