Recall: Old Navy aqua socks

Posted:

WASHINGTON (WKOW) -- Have you recently bought your little one a pair of aqua socks? If so, be aware of a recent recall by Old Navy.

Safety officials announced Thursday that about 34,000 Old Navy Toddler Aqua Socks are being recalled over a slip and fall hazard.

Officials say the this style of aqua socks have less traction when worn on wet or smooth surfaces, which increase a child's risk of slipping and falling.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission says there have been two reports of a child falling, but the minor injuries did not require medical attention.

The recalled slip-on shoes have pull-on tabs on both the front and back of the foot opening of the shoe. They were sold in pink and purple in Toddler sizes 5-11 with style number 896452.

The shoes were sold at Old Navy Stores and at oldnavy.com from February 2012 through June 2012.

If you bought the recalled shoes, return them to any Old Navy store for a full refund. Those who return the shoes before November 9, 2012 will also receive a coupon for $10 off their next purchase at Old Navy.
