The Hurtle All-Purpose Helmet, targeted for children, has been identified as the subject of this recall.

The recalled products are to be returned for a full refund. The recall was announced on June 22, 2023, and concerns approximately 1,800 units.

The Hurtle multi-purpose children’s helmets encompassed in this recall were available in colors including black, blue, pink, white, and red. The helmet design features the term “Renegade” etched on its side and black straps, while the internal white warning label also bears the “Renegade” inscription in black and orange lettering. Designed to fit head circumferences ranging from approximately seven to eight inches, these helmets have now been flagged as potentially unsafe.
Customers are advised to immediately cease usage of the recalled helmets and get in touch with Sound Around to procure a full refund of the purchasing price. To claim a refund, customers need to destroy the helmet by severing the straps, upload images of the helmet with the straps cut to the recall registration website, and then dispose of the helmet responsibly.
