Bareback Footwear Warranty

At Bareback footwear we take great care and pride in the design and craftsmanship of all our products we only use the best raw materials to the highest international manufacturing standards. In the most unlikely event that your product does not match up to our standards we will take corrective action within the six months warranty.

All boots will be sent for repair. In the event of it not being repairable then we will replace it. It is very important to note that failure to follow our care guidelines will result in the goods not being covered by our warranty as detailed below.

All new boots will come with a six month warranty which starts on the customer’s receipt of the boots (it is important to keep your receipt or online order details for future proof of purchase). Customers are responsible to return the boots to us within this warranty time, once repaired Bareback Footwear will post the boots back to you at no cost to the customer. N.B. (Bareback Footwear WILL NOT cover return postage costs on overseas items.) 

The warranty is for defective materials, manufacturing techniques and waterproofing for a period of 6 months from original date of purchase provided the correct care has been taken, it is not a wear warranty. 

Outside of this time is at the discretion of Bareback Footwear - please email photos for inspection so we can then best advise you on the appropriate course to take.

Never leave your boots after stable/yard/beach use covered in muck or mud to dry out without any treatment. This prolonged exposure to acids, salts or chemicals will cause the leather on the boots to dry/shrink and crack across the main foot area (the vamp), unfortunately it cannot be repaired or replenished at this point.

This warranty covers the boots for free repair of defects in leathers and workmanship for a repair (not a replacement) once the boots have been worn outside or on a horse and still within the six months warranty. Individual cases may vary. Footwear under warranty will not be extended after the warranty has expired, A replacement item does not constitute a new warranty period. Replacements are to ensure product satisfaction through the remainder of the original warranty period

 

We believe all boots should be enjoyed and used and aim to avoid Landfill waste at any opportunity, we will always attempt to repair before a replacement is offered to follow this aim.

Bareback Footwear will not cover damage through natural wear and tear, accidental damage, unauthorised repair or not using the correct care products to take care of materials/leathers or the maintenance of zips.

Please be aware that we only use the best YKK and OPTI zips it is up to the customer to take care of the zips and to be cleaned after every wear to avoid breakage of teeth, replacing zips due to lack of maintenance will be carried out at a charge and we will be happy to provide you with a quotation for repair where possible, please call (+44 01886 888873) or email the office for a quote.
