Kmart Recalls 'Basic Editions' Girls' Clothing Sets

December 6, 2007
Kmart is recalling about 13,000 Basic Editions girls' clothing sets. The recalled pants have drawstrings at the waist, which are longer than the maximum length set forth in federal guidelines. This poses an entrapment or entanglement hazard to children.

The recalled two-piece clothing set has olive-colored knit pants with a fully-tunneled waist drawstring and a pink short-sleeved top with necktie. The set was sold in the following girls' sizes: 4/5, 6/6X, 7/8, and 10/12.

The sets, made in Pakistan, were sold at Kmart stores nationwide during July 2007 for about $17 per set.

Consumers should immediately remove the drawstrings to eliminate the hazard.

Consumer Contact: For additional information, contact Kmart at (800) 659-7026 between 7 a.m. and 9 p.m. CT Monday through Saturday, or visit the firm's Web site at www.kmart.com.

The recall is being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
