Hide AdNightwear, and kids’ clothing, is required by the Guide to Nightwear (Safety) Regulations 1985 to carry a permanent label indicating whether it meets the flammability standard BS-5722.
Garments not meeting this standard must display KEEP AWAY FROM FIRE clearly on the label.
A statement from Boots read: “A number of Jack Wills Sleep Tees have been sold as part of the above gift set and do not carry the warning ‘Keep away from fire’.
