Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Alpine ski helmets sold under the brand name Aldo with the model designation "Razer" are being recalled due to a defective chin strap attachment that fails to keep the helmet secure on the wearer's head. The recalled helmets are blue with white "RAZER helmet" text on the front, packed in grey boxes with black dotted lines and a black stripe, and labeled "SKIING HELMET." The interior label indicates production in July 2007, lists a weight of 565 grams, and notes size 54cm. These helmets do not meet the safety requirements of the European standard EN 1077.

The distributor is voluntarily withdrawing the product from the market. The recall was reported by authorities in Latvia. The source does not specify what remedy affected consumers should pursue.
