Recall issued by Madewell for women's sweaters due to fire risk
Federal safety officials said the 5,900 recalled sweaters can catch fire and may cause serious burn injuries or death.
On Thursday, July 16, the Consumer Product Safety Commission announced a recall of about 5,900 Madewell-branded sweaters due to failure to meet mandatory flammability standards, creating a burn hazard.
The recall involves Madewell Double V-Neck Pullover and V-Neck Cardigan sweaters sold at Madewell and T.J. Maxx stores nationwide from December 2024 through October 2025.
Consumers can identify affected products by checking sewn-in side seam labels for the "HO24" code. While one sweater caught fire, no injuries have been reported to date.
Customers must stop using the garments immediately to receive a full refund or store credit. To claim, owners must destroy the sweater by cutting it in half and emailing a photo to Madewell.
Available in light blue and cream, the sweaters retailed between $138 and $148 with long sleeves and V-necks. Consumers with questions can contact Madewell toll-free at 866-544-1937 from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. ET daily.
