==> No barcodes, APNs, item numbers, manufacturing date codes, production dates, regulatory approval designations, registration numbers, agency approval designations or other identification numbers were listed with this recall notification.

These Children’s Clothing products may have been marketed, distributed and sold in all Australian states, although it is always possible these clothing products had wider distribution outside the country. When in doubt, please contact the manufacturer for specific product information.

Please consult the photograph above for details of the clothing’s design and retail presentation. Additional images of the recalled Kids Beach Oodie Clothing Tops can be found on the Web site above.

According to the ACCC, The Oodie recalls certain batch/lots of Kids Beach Oodie Clothing Tops from the Australian marketplace due to suspected failure to comply with the requirements of Australia’s mandatory safety standard. As a direct result of this suspected defect, you should neither serve nor consume the recalled Clothing Tops identified above.

In this case, the Children’s Clothing products do not comply with the requirements of Australia’s mandatory safety standard for nightwear for children. Specifically, the Kids Beach Oodie Clothing Tops do not have the required fire hazard labelling and therefore pose a risk of serious burn injuries if exposed to a heat or open flame source.

Proposed Remedy:
If you believe you have purchased or have in your possession the recalled Kids Beach Oodie Clothing Tops, please do not use them nor dress your child in them. Instead, kindly contact The Oodie to be provided with either:

1. A fire warning label with product attachment instructions to attach on the Beach Oodie explaining the risks of fire to this garment and to those who wear it; or
2. A replacement Beach Oodie from the Kids Beach product range, in exchange for the non-compliant product on hand.
