If the exchange is approved due to an error by BootStore, we may reimburse return shipping charges up to ₹100, subject to approval.
6. Order Cancellation
Before Dispatch
Customers requesting cancellation after order confirmation may be subject to cancellation charges.
Cleat culture may deduct reasonable processing, payment gateway, packaging, and operational charges before issuing any eligible refund. The applicable deduction depends on the order status, product type, and processing stage.
After Dispatch
Once an order has been dispatched, cancellation requests cannot normally be accepted.
Refund requests after dispatch will only be considered in accordance with this Return & Refund Policy and applicable laws.
7. Refund Policy
Refunds are issued only in eligible cases, including:
Order cancelled by cleat culture before dispatch.
Payment received for an order that cannot be fulfilled.
Other cases approved by cleat culture after review.
Approved refunds are generally processed within 5–7 business days through the original payment method.
The time required for the refunded amount to reflect in your account depends on your bank or payment provider.
8. Return-to-Origin (RTO)
Cleat culture shall not be liable for Return-to-Origin (RTO) shipments resulting from customer-related reasons, including:
Incorrect or incomplete delivery address.
Incorrect contact details.
Customer unavailable during delivery.
Refusal to accept the parcel without a valid reason.
Failure to coordinate with the courier partner.
If an order is returned due to customer-related reasons, any refund or reshipment will be subject to this policy. Additional shipping or handling charges may apply for reshipment.
9. Wrong or Missing Items
If you receive a wrong product or believe an item is missing, you must notify cleat culture within 48 hours of delivery.
A clear and uninterrupted unboxing videoshowing the sealed parcel being opened is mandatory for verification.
Claims submitted without an unboxing video may not be accepted.
10. Tampered or Damaged Parcels
If your parcel appears damaged, opened, or tampered with at the time of delivery, we recommend refusing delivery where possible and immediately reporting the issue to both the courier partner and cleat culture.
11. Product Description & Colour Variation
We strive to ensure that all product information is accurate. However, occasional typographical or data-entry errors may occur.
Minor errors in product descriptions alone shall not qualify for a return or replacement if the delivered product substantially matches the product images and the item ordered.
Certain sports accessories and gear may have slight colour or design variations due to manufacturing batches or supplier updates.
