Grundens Youth Clipper 282 and Youth Zenith 282 jackets in youth sizes 8-12 were sold at Bass Pro Shops, other outdoor stores and Grundens.com. They are recalled because the hood drawstring can get caught on objects and cause death or serious injury to children due to strangulation.

Consumers should immediately take the recalled jackets away from children and remove the drawstrings to eliminate the hazard.
