SAN CLEMENTE, California — U.S. safety regulators are recalling 10,800 pairs of kids' socks after they are discovered to be a choking hazard.
The Kids Reiny Szn Mid-Cushion Crew Socks from Stance are covered in small bells that can detach.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission decided that the jingle bells could be an aspiration or choking hazard to young children who might swallow them.
The socks were sold from November 2021 through December 2021 for around $15 at Stance stores and on Stance.com.
The company has reported one instance of the bells detaching with no children harmed.
The socks can be returned in-person at a Stance store or online by emailing info@stance.com for a pre-paid shipping label.
In return, purchasers will receive $20 credit at Stance stores.
