The boots' snake guard can fail to protect the wearer's feet from a snake bite.
Rocky Brands is recalling 16-inch rubber hunting boots because the snake guard might not protect feet from snake bites. This could lead to serious injury if a snake bites the wearer while wearing the boots.
The snake guard in these boots can fail to protect feet from snake bites. If a snake bites through the guard, it could cause serious injury or death to the wearer.
Hunters who own the recalled boots are most at risk. The boots are designed for men and sold as hunting footwear.
