Warranty

The warranty for our products is valid for 90 days and covers manufacturing defects, stitching, and sole adhesion. The warranty begins from the delivery of the product to the customer or to the address indicated in the order. It does not cover normal wear and tear of the product, misuse, damage caused by not following care or maintenance instructions for the item. Important: Once the warranty is requested, the footwear must be sent within a maximum of 5 business days, during which the products must not be used. Products with manufacturing flaws or defects will be repaired at no charge. If the repair of the product exceeds its commercial value or is not suitable for repair, it will be replaced.

It is not a cause for warranty:

• Wrinkles or creases caused by normal flexing of the upper.
• Products with wear or breakage: of the material, zippers, soles, caps, and other accessories; tripping, burns, rubbing, or friction against hard surfaces, among others caused by improper use.
• Variations in tone, texture, marks, scars, wrinkles, and veins are characteristics of normal leather use.
• Stains caused by improper cleaning or products with substances sensitive to leather such as dyes, perfumes, creams, fats, oils, solvents, alcohols, chemicals.
• Exposure to high and low temperatures, which are not suitable.
• Handling or alteration of the product by third parties and/or shoe repair workshops.
• Subjecting the product to the molding process due to dissatisfaction with size or design.
• Due to wear and/or natural discoloration of the soles over time.
• Damage caused by accidents, negligence, or improper use of the product.
• Use in activities other than the intended purpose (our footwear is designed solely and exclusively for walking; use in running, hiking, sports training, or others will result in loss of warranty).
• If the customer has been informed of the product's imperfections and has accepted them, the warranty will not cover these defects.
• Products sold to third parties without the brand's authorization.

We remind you that leather, as a natural product, has marks, stripes, and other signs that characterize it as a genuine product.

Leathers such as nubuck or suede require special care, in addition to the known ones, such as:

• They should not get wet. This type of leather is not waterproof.
• Brush them with bristles against the hair to remove surface dirt.
• Do not apply creams, oils, or any liquid substance that may run the color of the leather.

Care will be taken into account at the time of reviewing any warranty.

To send the product, you can use the original packaging it was sent in or use another packaging of your choice; however, it is important that the packaging is appropriate according to the nature of the product so that it is not affected as much as possible during the transportation process. The product must be sent in optimal hygienic conditions.

Shipments related to warranty requests will be covered by the brand, provided that the product meets the established conditions to apply for the warranty. These conditions include stitching defects, gluing problems, or issues related to workmanship.

Once the product arrives at the company, the repair department will review and confirm whether the warranty applies or not. If the warranty does not apply, the product will be returned to the original shipping address, with a letter clearly explaining the reasons why the warranty does not apply. By law, Colombia Shoes Factory SAS has a term of 15 business days to respond to a warranty claim request.

The repair time for items may take from 10 to 20 business days depending on the repair.

The useful life of any product depends on the particular use made of it, the conditions of use, and the wear patterns characteristic of the user. Damaged products due to use, normal wear, or that have exceeded the reasonable life of the item are not eligible for replacement. The warranty will not apply in case of evidence of misuse by the customer. Black Bison reserves the right to repair, replace, or refund the product initially.

If, once the repair is made, the defect recurs and cannot be fixed, the product may be exchanged, according to the terms stipulated in Article 12 of Law 1480 of 2011.

We do not apply warranty to leather, sole wear, or breaking of the internal part of the footwear, as these may vary according to each person's use, and their evaluation is not feasible.

Since the information you provide is essential for processing and delivering the product, for billing, and for establishing warranty contracts, failure to provide this data accurately and completely will result in the cancellation of your order or warranty.
