Approximately 2,100 pairs of SCARPA F1 EVO ski boots (2,100 in the U.S. and 250 in Canada) are being recalled because the Tronic system component can unexpectedly switch from ski mode to walk mode while in use. This defect prevents the boot from releasing properly from the ski binding, which has led to at least two reports of torn knee ligament injuries. The recalled boots were sold between October 2014 and January 2015 in royal blue (men's) and aqua blue (women's) for approximately $700. Consumers should stop using these boots immediately and return them for a full refund.
The Tronic system can malfunction and shift into walk mode during skiing, causing the boot to stay locked in the binding during a fall instead of releasing. This failure to release can result in severe leg and knee injuries, such as torn ligaments.
Consumers should immediately stop using the boots and contact SCARPA North America for a full refund.
