The Vaad Lmishmeres Shatnez has issued a warning to consumers after linen was discovered in a Ricercato brand wool suit purchased at an Igud Bnei Torah sale held in Toms River prior to Pesach.

Individuals who have purchased Ricercato wool suits or similar garments from the recent Igud Bnei Torah sale in Toms River are strongly advised to have their items checked by a qualified shatnez tester. This is particularly important given that other items from the same batch may also be affected by the presence of linen.

The Vaad Lmishmeres Shatnez has long urged consumers not to consider any garment shatnez-free without proper, thorough testing.
