Is It Still Safe To Use The Recalled P.J. Salvage Pajamas
No. Like other recalled products, it’s very important to stop using them immediately and keep these out of children’s reach. (2)
Although the recalled pajama sets you have at home might look fine, there’s no telling what can happen when your child uses them.
It’s best to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations and get a refund because continued use can put your child at risk of burn injuries. (2)

Does P.J. Salvage Run Small?
P.J. Salvage products have mixed customer reviews, with some customers claiming they run small while others counteracted that these are too large for the tag.
“The fabric is amazing, exactly what I hoped, plush, fluffy, cozy fleece, inside and out. The pants are perfect except for the sizing. I wear an 8/10, 10 if I want them loose and comfy. I bought XL because there were no reviews and sizing is often wrong on Amazon. Sadly, they fit barely, not loose, not for jogging or pajamas. Even worse, just like everyone else these days, the sizes run small and they do not make larger sizes.” – reviewer on Amazon
“One of the reviewers stated that these PJs ran small so I ordered a size larger, expecting the flannel to shrink a little. Big mistake! They are at least two sizes too large and they don’t appear to have shrunk at all when laundered and dried in a hot dryer. After laundering, they are soft and very warm. The pair of pjs I received were marked as the size I ordered, so I can’t explain the size difference. I have another pair of P.J. Salvage pjs and they also run larger than some other labels, but they are sized the same as the P.J. Salvage flannel pjs.” – reviewer on Amazon
