BLOOMBERG: Lululemon has recalled 318,000 women’s hoodies after injuries were reported.

Elastic cords used in hoods or the neck area can snap back if they’re pulled or catch on something, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. The recall affects about 133,000 products in the U.S. and 185,000 in Canada. Customers can remove the cord, and the yogawear company will provide a nonelastic string to replace it.

“Our main priority is ensuring our product works for our guests, and we believe this is the necessary proactive action,” Vancouver, BC-based Lululemon said in a statement. “We are committed to making our product right for our guests and regret any inconvenience this may have caused them.”
