Salewa North America is recalling about 1,300 pairs of Dynafit Khion ski boots because they can unexpectedly switch from ski mode to walk mode, potentially causing the user to lose control. Additionally, the upper cuffs can separate and the carbon shell on specific models can crack. There have been 16 reports of these various malfunctions, although no injuries have been reported. These boots were sold at outdoor specialty stores like REI and Christy Sports from October 2015 through June 2016 for between $800 and $900.
The boots can fail by switching modes or breaking during use, which can lead to a sudden loss of stability or control while skiing, posing a significant fall hazard.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled ski boots and contact Dynafit for a full refund or a free replacement.
