Plain-English summary

Hanna Andersson of Portland, Oregon, is recalling about 1,900 units of Children's Corduroy Overalls, style number 27267. The overalls are made of 100% cotton corduroy and were sold in red and blue. They feature two buttons on the front shoulder straps, two buttons on each side, slash pockets, and a large bib pocket.

The recall is being issued because the buttons on the front and side panels can detach from the garment, which poses a choking hazard to young children. The company has received two reports of buttons detaching, but no injuries have been reported.

The overalls were sold exclusively through Hanna Andersson's catalog, stores, and website from July 12, 2004, through October 15, 2004, for about $38. Consumers should stop using the overalls and contact Hanna Andersson toll-free at (800) 222-0544 to arrange a refund.
