In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Mountain High Hosiery Ltd., of San Diego, Calif., is recalling approximately 360,000 pairs of Tommy Hilfiger socks for infants and children. The heat-sealed Tommy Hilfiger flag logo appliques on these socks can detach, posing a choking hazard to young children. Mountain High has received three reports of the logo appliques detaching from these socks. No injuries have been reported. The recalled socks are white and sold in in sizes "S/M," for 6-12 months; "L/XL," for 12-24 months; and toddler shoe sizes 7-11. They have a red, white and blue Tommy Hilfiger flag logo applique on the side of each sock. Writing on the socks reads "TOMMY HILFIGER." Department and specialty stores nationwide sold two-pair packages of the socks from January 1999 through January 2000 for about $10. Consumers should stop using these socks immediately, and call Mountain High to receive an exchange or a refund. For more information, contact Mountain High at (877) 729-4916 anytime or on their web site at www.mtnhighinc.com.
