Safety Recall – Steel Toe Boots

The Timberland Company is voluntarily recalling Timberland PRO Direct Attach Steel Toe Series boots sold nationwide between September 2005 and September 2007. Product testing has demonstrated that the boots may not comply with applicable safety standards for compression and impact resistance. Although consumers could suffer impact foot injuries, no injuries have been reported.

These boots were made in the Dominican Republic and have a four digit date code ending in 35 and beginning with a number from 25 to 45 (e.g. 2535, 2635 . . . 4535). Users should view the green loop tag inside the boot to determine whether the boots are subject to this recall. Timberland boots made in China are not subject to this recall.

Consumers should stop wearing the recalled boots immediately and contact The Timberland Company to receive a free replacement pair of boots. For additional information, contact The Timberland Company toll free at 1–800–445–5545, Monday – Thursday 8:00 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. EST, Friday 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. EST.
