Salewa North America Inc. of Boulder, CO recalled about 1,300 more of its Dynafit Khion boots after receiving four reports of the ski/walk mechanism malfunctioning, seven reports of the upper cuff separating and five reports of the carbon boot shell cracking. No injuries have been reported.
This recall involves three models of the Dynafit Khion Ski Boots: (1) Khion Boot Men, (2) Khion Boot Women pictured to the right and (3) Khion Carbon Boot. Salewa had already recalled 300 of the boots, which were manufactured in Italy.
Salewa has instructed consumers to immediately stop using the recalled ski boots and contact Dynafit for a full refund or a free replacement. The boots were sold by Christy Sports, Gorsuch, Jackson Hole Sports, REI, and other specialty outdoor stores nationwide and online at backcountry.com, mountaingear.com, MEC.ca, and REI.com from October 2015 through June 2016 for between $800 and $900.
