T&C's Returns & Exchanges Policy

* Kindly take note: We can not guarantee the exact place of print to where it will be placed on our leathers and/or fabric printed shoes & especially our lace sewing on leather shoes, to be the same as on the pictures on our website due to our high volume production line. We use only 'repeat' designer patterns. If you are not happy about the placements on shoes you received, we will be happy to exchange it for another pair. The courier back and forth will be then for you, the customer's account.

* Dye color on leather skins may also slightly differ due to every batch being matured at different times so the exact color may differ slightly.

* We only use genuine South African leather skins so there might be small scuff marks on the leather and this proofs then for authentically home grown cows grazing in the veld and is therefor not bonded-leather or 'false' leather. We use a breathable vinyl 'lining' which are specifically made for the shoe industry on the inside of the shoe to give it a more stable & firm feel for comfort when wearing the shoes. On some selected 'vellie' designs we use genuine pigskin leather.

* Please note that our selected  handcrafted outer soles that we make are made from a PU rubber resin so the shoe is made to be worn to most occasions and is not made for an outdoor adventure in nature. Photos are only for marketing purposes.

*Please make use of our shoe chart to make sure of the measurements and correct size when buying your shoes. We will gladly exchange for a different size.

*Please note that there will be no refunds on any of our products. We will gladly do a free exchange on your first order if the size is not correct and/or give you the opportunity for a different design.  

We have many expenses running a website with Shopify, Payfast and admin monthly costs as well as  commission deducted from our account for every purchase made. If it comes to a special circumstance for requesting a refund, we will inspect the valid reason and comply to the following legal deductions referring to the POPIA CPA labour guide where we as the supplier will refund the consumer the original amount less expenses consisting of the following:

Shopify 2.9% commission of the selling price plus R5.60

Payfast 3.5% commission of the selling price plus R2.00

Admin fee of 3% commission of the selling price.

Courier fee of R150 for goods couriered.

 We do not promote custom designs at all because it is most of the time not what the customer had in mind.
