Fischer RC4 Junior Ski Boots Recalled for Fall Hazard
Fischer Sports is recalling RC4 Junior Ski Boots because the cuff can rotate and cause the lock mechanism to fail, creating a fall hazard. Consumers should stop using them immediately and contact Fischer for a refund, replacement, or repair.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The source explicitly states no injuries have been reported, and the hazard is a potential fall risk rather than confirmed harm. This is a voluntary precautionary recall with one incident of cuff rotation reported but no resulting injury, meeting the criteria for Moderate severity.
Plain-English summary
Fischer Sports US is recalling Fischer RC4 Junior Ski Boots (models RC4 50, RC4 60, and RC4 65 in sizes 21.5 to 27.5) because the ski boot cuff can rotate, which causes the lock mechanism to malfunction and poses a fall hazard and risk of injury. The boots were sold in Rhino Grey, Snow, and Yellow colors through ski gear stores nationwide and online from October 2022 through February 2024 for between $200 and $275.
About 1,460 units were recalled in the United States, with an additional approximately 114 units sold in Canada. The firm has received one report of an incident in which the ski boot cuff rotated, but no injuries have been reported.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled RC4 Junior Ski Boots.
