 Purchasing Terms

Making a purchase could not be easier. Just browse our website and add any items that you wish to buy into the shopping cart. After you have finished your selection, click on 'Checkout' and you will be asked for a few details that we need to be able to complete the order. The customer will need to ‘Tick a box’ to confirm you have agreed to the terms and conditions before your order is placed.

After placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from us (sent to the email address that you have provided when placing your order) acknowledging that we have received your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy a product. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail that confirms that the product(s) has been dispatched (the “Dispatch Confirmation”). The contract between us (the “Contract”) will only be formed when we send you the Dispatch Confirmation. 

Orders placed under 'Pre-order' (when the item is not currently in stock with us) shall have the payment taken at time of order to secure the item for the purchaser. The Item shall be posted out as described in the timeframe upon order, You reserve the right to a refund or alternative product at any time before dispatch and the returns/ warranty will not begin until acceptance of delivery of the item.

We may contact you to say that we do not accept your order. This maybe for the following reasons:

(a) The goods are unavailable

(b) You are not allowed to buy the goods from us

(c) We are not allowed to sell the goods to you

(d) There has been a mistake on the pricing or description of the goods

Overseas Ordering

We are a UK retailer, but will ship Internationally. Please note if oversea's orders are returned (not faulty) the cost of the goods will be refunded less the cost of the original shipping costs.

Cancellation of an order

You may cancel your order placed up to the point of dispatch. Upon cancellation, all payments will be fully refunded within 2 working days. We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction.

You DO NOT have the right to cancel the order between you and us if:- we supply footwear which are made to your specification or are personalised (made to measure)

Subject to the terms of our warranty, returns and exchanges (please see pages for details) you may cancel your order with us within 30 days without giving any reason so long as conditions in our warranty and returns are met and approved by Bareback Footwear.

The customer shall take reasonable care of the goods and not use them

The customer shall send back the footwear to us without undue delay and in any event not later than 30 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation from the order to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 30 days has expired. Goods must be returned to us in a clean and dry condition and in their original packaging, please see delivery and returns for more details. 

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of handling by you other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

If the goods are not clean when returned to us (for example if there is mud, yard manure, waste liquids, salt water, hair or fur on goods returned to us) then this is likely to result in a deduction of refund made. We advise that footwear is tried on a clean and dry indoor surface that will not affect the footwear.

We offer a 45-day refund period for items purchased directly from us and a 60-day exchange period.

To qualify, items must be unused, not worn outside, and in a resalable condition with all original packaging included. This policy applies to items purchased at events, in stores, and during sales. Please refrain from using tape or writing on the box/packaging.

Unfortunately, we cannot offer a refund or exchange if items are not returned to us in the same condition they were received.

**Returns Terms and Conditions**

In compliance with Trading Standards and Consumer Contracts Regulations, customers must initiate the return process within 45 days of the purchase date. This can be done in writing, via email, or through a phone call expressing the intention to return goods. The buyer bears the responsibility for the return shipping costs, unless covered by our free returns policy (For details on Returns & Exchanges, please refer to our returns and exchanges page).

Non-sale footwear, in perfect condition with labels intact, in its original packaging, and with proof of purchase, may be returned within 30 days from the date we are informed of the return. All returns are subject to a handling fee of £10 if the reason for return is an incorrect choice by the customer or if, in compliance with DSRs, the customer has not taken 'good care' of the items while in their possession. In such cases, we reserve the right to issue credit for the remaining amount (For details on Returns & Exchanges, please see our returns and exchanges page).

Proof of postage, in the form of the receipt given at the post office, must be retained along with tracking information until the refund or exchange is processed, and confirmation is received via email or phone. Any item returned without proof of postage, making it untraceable, will not be covered by Royal Mail Insurance, and a refund/exchange cannot be offered.

Once footwear has been worn or used, it cannot be returned unless a fault is found (Please visit our Warranty page). This policy does not affect your statutory rights.

Any items returned without the original cloth protective bags sent will have the cost deducted from the requested refund.

Due to health and safety reasons, we cannot handle any footwear unless it is completely clean, free from dirt and stable manure, and dry. Therefore, any footwear worn and believed to be faulty cannot be returned unless it has been cleaned first. If returned under these conditions, the item will be returned un-repaired at a cost to the customer. It is recommended to contact us if unsure of the returns policy before initiating a return.

If you have made a face-to-face purchase, either at the Head Office in Martley or at one of our tradestands, you have 30 days from the date of purchase to return items. They must be unworn, in original packaging, in saleable condition, and a receipt of purchase must be provided, either by post, email, or by visiting our Head Office. We reserve the right to determine 'saleable condition'.

Bareback Footwear offers a manufacturer's warranty for products purchased directly from Bareback Footwear or authorised retailers. Warranty claims for purchases made at authorised retailers should be directed to the original point of purchase. Bareback Footwear does NOT offer a manufacturer's warranty for products purchased from anyone who is not an authorised retailer, and it does NOT offer refunds, exchanges, or other special opportunities for products purchased from anyone who is not an authorised dealer.

If a refund is required, notification in writing must be received within 7 days of receiving the item and the item must be returned within 21 days of receipt. (Consumer Contracts Regulations June 2014). In all cases the purchaser is responsible for return postage costs.

Customers must return goods within 30 days from purchase if we are informed within 7 days from receipt of the goods.   The buyer would have to cover postage costs.

MADE TO MEASURE SERVICE 

Bareback Footwear takes no responsibility for inaccurate measurements by the customer. These items are non-refundable or returnable unless found to be an error during manufacture, if this situation arises it will be resolved satisfactorily between customer and Bareback Footwear

Made to measure footwear should take 6-9 weeks standard time to be made and delivered, this can increase at busy times around Christmas, Bank holidays and Factory holidays up to 12 weeks.

The foot bed of the boot is NOT made to measure, a standard size must be selected, only the measurements requested on the diagram are made specifically to the customer.

For full details of our delivery charges please see shipping and returns.

Made to Measure Cancellations

Once payment has been taken we deem this to be confirmation of order and will proceed with ordering of leathers and materials. Cancellation is not possible once production of your order has started (usually within two days of order placement) as this is classed as a bespoke (made to measure service) this is therefore exempt from the Distance Selling Regulations. We will therefore retain full payment received for the order.

All risk in the products you order (including risk of loss and/or damage to the products) shall pass to you when they are delivered to the delivery address specified in your order.

We shall be under no liability for any delay or failure to deliver products if the delay or failure is wholly or partly caused by circumstances beyond our control.

Please feel free to call our office to discuss further.
