Although these tops have not been involved in any incidents known to the Commission or to the firm, testing shows that the tops fail to meet the flammability requirement for general wearing apparel.
The oversized fashion tops are made of 100% cotton fleece fabric. A neck label tag states in part, "TROUSERS UP ---MADE IN PORTUGAL". The tops which were sold for $20.00 to $30.00 from August to October, 1986, come in various colors. The styles are:
#3403 pullover 3 button front (solid color, no print)
#3419 pullover with mock turtleneck (solid color, no printing)
#3419P pullover with mock turtleneck with a stenciled design on the front.
