The CPSC and SCARPA are recalling Scarpa F1 LT and F1 GT Ski Boots. The screws that attach the ski/walk mechanism to the boot loosen and fall out leading to falls and wearer injuries. About 770 of these ski boots were sold in the US and about 160 were sold in Canada at Cripple Creek Backcountry, REI, Ski The Whites, Skimo Co, Ute Mountaineers, and other sporting goods stores and authorized SCARPA dealers nationwide as well as online at.backcountry.com and us.scarpa.com. Stop using these recalled ski boots and contact SCARPA at 1-866-998-2895 or via email at [email protected] for instructions about replacing the screws. You have several choices including taking the boots to a SCARPA dealer for screw replacement or receiving replacement screws.
