The words “customer,” “user,” “you,” and “your” refer to any person who visits the website, creates an account, places an order, purchases a product, or uses our services.

By accessing the website or placing an order, you agree to these Terms of Service, along with our:

  • Privacy Policy

  • Cancellation, Return and Refund Policy

  • Any additional policy or condition displayed on the website

Please do not use the website or place an order if you do not agree with these Terms.

1. Eligibility

You must be legally capable of entering into a binding contract under Indian law to independently use the website and place an order.

If you are under the legal age to enter into a contract, you may use the website only under the supervision and consent of a parent or legal guardian.

By placing an order, you confirm that the information provided by you is accurate and that you are authorised to use the selected payment method.

2. Website Use

You may use the website only for lawful personal shopping purposes.

You must not:

  • Use the website for fraudulent or illegal activity

  • Provide false, incomplete, or misleading information

  • Impersonate another person or entity

  • Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the website, server, database, or another customer’s account

  • Introduce viruses, malware, harmful code, bots, or automated scripts

  • Scrape, copy, reproduce, or commercially exploit website content

  • Interfere with the website’s security or operation

  • Misuse coupons, promotional offers, COD facilities, exchanges, refunds, or returns

  • Place orders for unauthorised resale or commercial redistribution

  • Submit false reviews, complaints, or claims

  • Engage in abusive, threatening, defamatory, or unlawful conduct

We may suspend or restrict website access where fraud, misuse, abuse, or unlawful activity is reasonably suspected.

Certain website features may require you to create an account.

You are responsible for:

  • Providing accurate account information

  • Keeping your mobile number and email address updated

  • Maintaining the confidentiality of your password and OTP

  • Preventing unauthorised use of your account

  • All activity carried out through your account

You must immediately inform us if you suspect that your account has been accessed without authorisation.

4. Product Information

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that product descriptions, images, colours, sizes, materials, features, prices, and specifications displayed on the website are accurate.

However:

  • Product colours may vary slightly due to screen settings, lighting, and photography

  • Minor variations may occur in texture, finish, stitching, packaging, or appearance

  • Measurements may be subject to reasonable manufacturing tolerances

  • Product images may contain props or styling accessories that are not included

  • Packaging may change without prior notice

  • Product availability may change at any time

Customers should carefully review product descriptions, photographs, size charts, and care instructions before placing an order.

A minor visual variation that does not materially alter the product’s nature, quality, functionality, or description will not automatically be treated as a defect.

5. Size and Fit

Footwear sizing and fit may vary depending on foot shape, width, product design, and personal preference.

Customers are responsible for reviewing the applicable size chart before ordering.

A size chart is intended as a general guide and does not guarantee an identical fit for every customer.

Eligible size exchanges will be handled in accordance with our Cancellation, Return and Refund Policy.

6. Pricing

All prices displayed on the website are in Indian Rupees unless otherwise stated.

Prices may include or exclude applicable taxes depending on how they are displayed at checkout.

Shipping fees, COD fees, convenience charges, or other applicable charges will be shown before the order is confirmed.

We may change product prices, offers, discounts, and charges at any time before an order is accepted.

A price change will not normally affect an order already accepted and confirmed, except where the displayed price resulted from an obvious technical, typographical, or system error.

7. Pricing and Listing Errors

Despite reasonable care, a product may occasionally be listed with:

  • Incorrect pricing

  • Incorrect discount

  • Incorrect product description

  • Incorrect stock status

  • Incorrect image or specification

  • Technical or typographical error

Where such an error occurs, we may:

  • Cancel the affected order

  • Issue a full refund for any amount already paid

We will not substitute a different product without your approval.

8. Product Availability

All orders are subject to product availability.

Adding a product to your cart does not reserve the product.

A product may become unavailable after an order is placed because of:

  • Inventory mismatch

  • Simultaneous orders

  • Product damage

  • Quality-control failure

  • Supplier or warehouse issues

  • Technical errors

If a product becomes unavailable, we may cancel the relevant item or order and issue the applicable refund.

9. Order Placement and Acceptance

Placing an order on the website constitutes an offer by you to purchase the selected product.

An order is not considered finally accepted merely because:

  • The order has been submitted

  • Payment has been attempted

  • An automated confirmation has been generated

  • An order ID has been issued

Acceptance may be subject to:

  • Successful payment

  • Stock availability

  • Address verification

  • Customer verification

  • Fraud and risk checks

  • Courier serviceability

  • Internal order approval

We may accept, reject, hold, or cancel an order for legitimate operational, payment, stock, security, fraud-prevention, or legal reasons.

10. Order Confirmation

After an order is accepted, we may send confirmation through:

  • Email

  • SMS

  • WhatsApp

  • Website notification

  • Account order history

Customers must review the confirmation and contact us promptly if any order information is incorrect.

Changes to an order cannot be guaranteed after processing or dispatch has started.

11. Payment

Available payment methods may include:

  • Credit card

  • Debit card

  • UPI

  • Net banking

  • Digital wallets

  • Cash on Delivery

  • Other methods shown at checkout

Payments may be processed by third-party payment gateways or financial service providers.

You confirm that:

  • The payment information provided is accurate

  • The transaction is not fraudulent or unlawful

We do not directly store complete card numbers, CVV details, UPI PINs, banking passwords, or other sensitive payment credentials.

12. Payment Failure or Duplicate Payment

An order may remain unconfirmed where payment is:

  • Declined

  • Interrupted

  • Pending

  • Unsuccessful

  • Not verified by the payment gateway

If an amount is debited but the order is not confirmed, the amount may be automatically reversed by the bank or payment provider.

Where duplicate payment is verified, the excess eligible amount will be refunded after payment reconciliation.

Bank and payment gateway processing timelines may apply.

13. Cash on Delivery

Cash on Delivery availability may depend on:

  • Delivery pin code

We may restrict or disable COD for:

15. Delivery Acceptance

An order may be delivered to:

  • The customer

  • A family member

  • An employee

  • A receptionist

  • Security personnel

  • Another person available at the delivery address

Delivery to a person present at the supplied address may be treated as successful delivery unless the customer gave different written instructions accepted by us or the courier partner.

Customers should inspect the outer package before accepting delivery.

A visibly opened, torn, damaged, or tampered package should be refused where reasonably possible.

16. Risk and Ownership

Ownership of a product passes to the customer after full payment and successful delivery, subject to applicable law.

Risk of loss or damage generally passes upon successful delivery to the customer or an authorised recipient at the supplied address.

This does not affect the customer’s rights regarding a verified wrong, damaged, defective, missing, or misrepresented product.

17. Cancellation, Return, Exchange and Refund

All cancellation, return, exchange, and refund requests are governed by our Cancellation, Return and Refund Policy.

Customers must comply with:

Nothing in this section limits any non-waivable consumer right available under applicable Indian law.
