Georgia Boot Steel Toe Logger Boots

What went wrong

The notice saysThe boots may have been mislabeled to indicate that they are resistant to electrical current, which is incorrect. This may result in a serious shock or electrocution to consumers.

Safety-toe and metatarsal-guard boots are sold to meet impact and compression ratings. When a recall says the protection may fail, it means the boot may not hold up to the force the label promises. Employers who require protective footwear generally expect it to meet the rating printed in the boot, so check with your safety officer about a replacement.

How to tell if your pair is affected

Product description in the noticeThe recalled steel toe logger boots are brown and black and have laces that tie up to the calf. The recalled boots have stock numbers of G8320, G8322, and G9360, which can be found on a label under the tongue of the boot. The same label has stitching of the "Georgia Boot" name.

The notice gives no style numbers or barcodes, so you match on what it does give: the brand and style (Georgia Boot Steel Toe Logger Boots), the sale period (October 2002 to April 2004), where it was sold (see “Sold at” above) and the “made in” label (China). If a detail does not line up, the recall contact below can confirm.
