The Sports Authority and the CPSC are recalling approximately 11,200 Alpine Design Aluminum Water Bottles, because the surface paint on the water bottle contains excessive levels of lead, violating the federal lead paint standard. No injuries have been reported.
This recall involves the Alpine Design aluminum water bottles sold at Sports Authority. The water bottles are sold in different colors and measure between six and 10 ½ inches tall. The water bottles are silver, blue, red, blue with pink flowers, red with the depiction of a mouse, or blue with the depiction of a zebra. “Alpine Design” is painted on the water bottle.
The bottles were sold at Sports Authority stores nationwide from April 2006 through September 2007 for between $5 and $8 and were manufactured in China.
