WARRANTY POLICY

WHAT IS SPYDER EUROPE’S WARRANTY POLICY? 

Spyder offers a 2-year policy and is subject to individual country's laws and regulations. 

Spyder offers a warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, which is applicable on outerwear only—ski jackets and ski pants. Spyder's warranty is only valid on items purchased through an Authorized Spyder Dealer to the original purchaser, and the purchaser must provide an original receipt for purchase. 

The Customer Service of eu.spyder.com will only take care of the claims of customers that purchased on the official website. If the item was purchased from a reseller, the customer must forward the claim to the corresponding store. The reseller store is responsible for the purchase and must give you a solution.

 

WHAT WILL SPYDER DO WITH MY GARMENT? 

First we will determine if the garment is under warranty coverage. At Spyder's sole discretion, we will first try to repair a warrantied item; if we can't repair the item we'll find a suitable solution. Repairs that are not covered under warranty will be repaired at the owner's expense. You'll be notified of this choice before we commence the repair process. We accept Visa, MasterCard, and American Express for repairs not covered under warranty. Be advised that Spyder will repair to functional utility. Zippers, pulls, logos and snaps will be repaired or replaced to the best of our ability. We're good, but a repair often looks like a repair. For instance, Spyder uses custom colors and snaps and we may no longer have the original zipper color or snap design in stock. Spyder does not perform alterations. 

 

WHAT IS NOT COVERED UNDER SPYDER'S WARRANTY? 

This warranty does not cover damage caused by accident, improper care, negligence, normal wear-and-tear, incorrect laundering, or natural breakdown of colors and materials over time and usage.

Pant legs slashed by your ski edges? Slap your tuner on the back and congratulate him on a sharp edge, but the cuts are not covered under our warranty.

Goose down feather pull-through is normal and not warrantied.

Natural UV fading of colors.

Real or faux fur.

Damage to water repellent coatings due to duct tape application, melting, or abrasion.

Spyder does not warranty purchases through consumer resale sites such as eBay.

Counterfeit and Sample products 

 

HOW DO I RETURN MY GARMENT FOR WARRANTY EVALUATION? 

Please check our Repair Policy here.

Follow these steps: 

  1. Wash the garment. Government regulations require that all garments be cleaned before returning, or they will be returned as-is, unrepaired.. 
  2. Bring the garment back to the authorized Spyder dealer where the item was purchased. Remember to bring your receipt. Many dealers will return items to Spyder on your behalf, individual stores’ policies may vary. 
  3. If you prefer to contact us directly, please check our Repair Policy here.
  4. Please have your garment in hand if you call us so we can help you locate the style number. Any return product that does not follow our guidelines will be refused. 

 

HOW LONG DOES A WARRANTY/REPAIR ORDER TAKE? 

If the return is accepted, our team will then proceed with an examination in order to determine the origin of the defect. We will then do what is necessary to satisfy your request as urgently as possible. 

 

WHO PAYS FOR THE SHIPPING ON A RETURN? 

Spyder will cover return shipping and cost of repair on qualifying warranty claims. Shipping to Spyder is your responsibility, please contact our Customer Service for more information. 

 

DOES SPYDER MAKE REPAIRS? 

Please check our Repair Policy here.

If the repair is not covered under warranty, we'll be happy to repair it for you.

There will be a reasonable cost involved, but we'll notify you first of any charges. Be advised that repaired garments most likely will not appear brand new.

We accept Visa, MasterCard and American Express for repairs not covered under warranty.

Note: the only things that last forever are death, taxes, and a love for skiing. If you've had your jacket over 10 years and a zipper broke, we suggest it's time to treat yourself to a new jacket. 

 

HOW SHOULD I CARE FOR MY SPYDER APPAREL? 

To wash, follow the care label on the inside of the garment. Zip all zippers prior to washing, and close all Velcro. To boost waterproofness, we recommend NIKWAX Tech Wash. Use caution around heat sources, including register heaters and fireplaces. Technical fabrics can melt, and this is not covered under our warranty policy. 

 

CAN I USE WATERPROOFING PRODUCT WHEN I WASH MY SKIWEAR? 

Sure. We recommend NIKWAX TX Direct; visit NIKWAX for options and follow the package's instructions. 

 

CAN I GET A REPLACEMENT ZIP-OFF SLEEVE (GOGGLE WIPE, BELT, HOOD, ETC) FOR MY JACKET? 

Sorry, due to storage, production, and constantly progressing designs, we can't replace lost components.
