Attached is consumer
notice from January 2013 which publicized the shatnez issue
8) "Men’s 100% woolen
sweater made in China. No brand label attached."
It was referring to the
Steinbest sweaters which at that time did not have any brand labels attached to them.
Currently, the Steinbest sweaters have a label with the brand name, "SW",
attached to them.

Urgent Shatnez Update- November 12, 2018
All sweaters and tops
containing wool or linen must be tested at a professional shatnez laboratory.
Recently, the Borough
Park Shatnez Laboratory (phone # 718-435-0992) had
discovered shatnez in a Steinbest Co. men's black 100% woolen
sweater. The sweater
contained the brand label,
"SW".
Steinbest Co. is a Jewish
owned company with its headquarters based in Williamsburg, New York. Its men's
100% woolen sweaters are sold exclusively in
Jewish owned stores.
In the previous years, shatnez
had been discovered in many of the men's black
woolen sweaters manufactured by Steinbest Co. No recall
had then been undertaken by
the company, and it is
assumed that numerous people are oblivious to the issue
and are wearing shatnez.
Please publicize.
