Old Navy recalls toddler shoes

Posted: Updated:

Old Navy is recalling Toddler Girl Aqua Socks because of slipping hazards.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Health Canada today announced a voluntary recall of Old Navy Toddler Girl Aqua Socks. Two customers reported falls with minor injuries that did not require medical attention. The product is being recalled because of less traction when worn on wet or smooth surfaces, such as hardwood floors.

The slip-on shoes have pull-on tabs on both the front and back of the foot opening of the shoe. These Aqua Socks were sold in pink and purple in Toddler sizes 5-11. The recall includes Old Navy Toddler Girl Aqua Socks with style number 896452. A small tag inside the foot opening contains the style number (896452), size information and country of origin (China).

The product was sold at Old Navy stores in the U.S. and Canada and at oldnavy.com in the U.S. and at oldnavy.ca in Canada from February 2012 through June 2012. The shoes sold for between $12 and $15 and were manufactured in China.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Health Canada recommends that consumers should immediately stop using these shoes and return them to any Old Navy store for a full refund. Consumers who return the shoes before November 9, 2012, will also receive a coupon for $10 off their next purchase at Old Navy.
