Rocky Brands Georgia Boot Steel-Toed Shoes Due to Compression Hazard
Check whether yours is affected, then follow the instructions below.
What’s wrong
When compressed, the steel toe cap in the shoes can fail to protect the wearer's feet.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
What it looks like
Photos help. Identifiers decide. Appearance can vary by color, finish or packaging. Confirm the model number, date code or other identifier in the official notice.
