Mix & Ny Performance Slim Fit
Urgent recall alert: Mix & Ny Performance Slim Fit shirts are being pulled from shelves nationwide due to potential health hazards. Consumers are advised to immediately stop wearing and return affected garments.
This widespread recall, initiated by Mix & Ny, stems from reports of skin irritation and chemical exposure linked to a specific dye used in the production of the slim-fit shirts. The company has confirmed the presence of formaldehyde levels exceeding safety regulations in certain batches.
Scope of the Recall
The recall affects all colors and sizes of the Mix & Ny Performance Slim Fit shirts manufactured between January 2023 and October 2024. These shirts were sold online and in major retail stores across the United States and Canada.
Approximately 500,000 units are estimated to be impacted by the recall. The affected shirts are easily identifiable by the style number printed on the care label: MNY-SF-2023-2024.
Consumers can verify if their shirts are part of the recall by visiting the Mix & Ny website or contacting their customer service hotline. A comprehensive list of impacted lot numbers is available online.
Health Risks
Exposure to high levels of formaldehyde can cause various health issues. Common symptoms include skin rashes, itching, burning sensations, and respiratory irritation.
Individuals with pre-existing skin conditions or allergies may experience more severe reactions. Prolonged exposure could potentially lead to more serious health complications.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has issued a warning urging consumers to take immediate action. They advise discontinuing use of the recalled shirts and seeking medical attention if experiencing adverse reactions.
