⚠️ Risk
The product poses a risk of injury because through the channel that is around the hood runs a textile pull-string. This does not comply with the relevant European standard EN 14682, according to which clothing for small children younger than 7 years and shorter than 134 cm may not include pull-strings, functional and decorative strings that are placed on the hood and in the neck area. Therefore, there is a danger of a child getting caught on the surrounding objects. In addition, there are knots on both string ends which are not secured against frazzling, which does not comply with the above standard.
