Recall alert: 207K pairs of heated socks recalled for burn hazard

Hundreds of thousands of battery-powered socks are being recalled because they may pose a burn hazard.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission said 207,806 pairs of 32 Degrees heated socks were recalled because someone can experience burns when there is a combination of heat, excessive friction, moisture and pressure.

The socks were sold at Costco in stores and online from August 2025 to March 2026 for between $30 and $46, and came in medium, large and extra large sizes, the CPSC said.

There have been 14 reports of incidents involving the socks, with 13 resulting in either first- or second-degree burns.

If you have the recalled socks, you’re told not to use them and return them to Costco for a refund.
