In 2021, Owlet’s then named Owlet Smart Socks were removed from sale in the US after the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a warning letter to the company. The FDA stated that Owlet was marketing its product without the relevant clearance or approval required from the agency.
The FDA pointed out that the socks were intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions or in the cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, and therefore required application for premarket approval (PMA) in relation to section 515(a) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 360e(a).
In November 2023, Owlet obtained De Novo FDA-Clearance for its socks under the new Dream Sock name.
