Rocky Brands is recalling approximately 6,800 Georgia Boot steel-toed work shoes because the internal steel toe cap can fail to protect your feet when compressed. The recall affects the 6-inch tall brown leather "Men's Georgia Metatarsal" boots (model G9075) sold between January 2012 and November 2013 for about $150. Consumers should stop wearing these boots immediately and contact Rocky Brands for a free replacement pair of steel-toed shoes in a similar style. While no injuries have been reported, the failure of the protective cap poses a significant safety risk in work environments.
The steel toe cap in the shoes can fail under pressure, meaning it will not provide the intended protection if a heavy object falls on or compresses the wearer's foot. This defect can lead to serious foot injuries in environments where steel-toed protection is required.
Consumers should stop wearing the recalled shoes immediately and contact Rocky Brands for a free pair of replacement steel-toed shoes in a similar style.
