13. Right of withdrawal
13.1 Except for the personalized products, whose exceptions are indicated below, DIS guarantees the right of withdrawal for all other non-personalized items purchased on the website, in accordance with the provisions of articles 52 and following of the Consumer Code. In particular, the right of withdrawal can be exercised within 14 (fourteen) days from the receipt of the goods. For the methods of withdrawal, see the instructions provided in point 13.3. Within 14 (fourteen) days of the written notice of withdrawal sent to DIS, the Customer must return the Product to the following address: “Future Fashion s.r.l., Viale del Lavoro n. 190 - 62014 Corridonia (MC)”. For the purposes of compliance with the deadline, proof of delivery of the returned Product to the courier will be considered. DIS will refund the Customer the full amount paid, excluding shipping costs, within 14 (fourteen) days following the return of the goods to its warehouses. The costs of returning the Product are the exclusive responsibility of the Customer, except in the case in which the refund is made for defective goods or goods that do not comply with the order. Refunds will be issued based on the original form of payment. The Product must be returned perfectly intact in all its parts, with the original labels and with careful wrapping, in order to safeguard the original packaging. Used or damaged products, even partially, will not be replaced or refunded. After receiving the returned product, the seller will be able to evaluate and possibly analyze the product, and if he ascertains the existence of damage to the Product, for which its value will be decreased, the Customer will have to answer for it, if and as responsible.
It is recommended to ship the Products to be replaced using a courier, ensuring the entire amount of the goods, and taking care to receive a shipment number to allow tracking of the shipment. DIS will not be responsible for reimbursement or compensation for Products shipped by the Customer but which have never been received by DIS due to loss, theft or damage that are not attributable to DIS.
13.2 In compliance with the provisions of article 59, lett. c) of the Consumer Code, the right of withdrawal for online purchases is excluded in the case of personalized orders, for example through the choice of leather and the application of engravings. Variations in color and finish of the leathers do not in any case constitute a reason for withdrawal.
The products shown in the 3D configurator and in the photographs have the sole purpose of displaying and representing the real product as faithfully as possible, both in terms of color and finish. However, the nuances may vary depending on the screen or monitor used by the Client. Since leather is a natural product and tanning is an individual process, which varies from leather to leather, we draw the Customer's attention to the fact that the shoe displayed may not correspond perfectly to the one delivered. In general, since DIS products are handmade, small variations in the color or quality of the leathers are to be considered characteristics of the product and its uniqueness, as well as an expression of its craftsmanship. All customized footwear is produced by DIS exclusively for the customer who orders it. Before putting the Product into production, DIS reserves the right to contact the Customer via email or telephone number provided by the same when placing the order, to propose one or both the active services to confirm the size.
In the event of no response from the Customer, after 14 (fourteen) days from the order receipt, DIS will produce the product in the size and configuration ordered and the Customer alone will be liable in the event that the size is incorrect once the footwear has been received.
13.3. DIS guarantees the right of withdrawal for personalized items, only in the event that the delivered products present manufacturing defects or mismatch with the order specifications. To exercise the right of withdrawal, the Customer is required to send DIS an email to help@dis.shoes within 14 (fourteen) days from the date of receipt of the goods, containing:
- the intention to exercise the right of withdrawal or return (for this purpose, the Customer can use the standard form that can be downloaded here);
- the indication of the products for which the Customer intends to exercise this right;
- indication of the type of defect, attaching photos in which it is clearly visible; as well as photos showing that the soles of the shoes show no signs of wear;
- the progressive order number communicated by DIS upon confirmation of the purchase;
- IBAN code in the event that the payment was made by bank transfer.
In the event that the existence of a manufacturing defect is ascertained, DIS will take charge of the management of the defective goods (shipping costs and product remaking). Alternatively, the Customer can choose to keep the shoes, accepting a partial refund of the price paid by him, up to a maximum of 50%, depending on the severity of the defect. The right of withdrawal lapses if, through the evaluation of the photos, DIS deems that the shoes have been worn or that the defects highlighted are due to their negligent use.
13.4 The withdrawal for wrong size is excluded, when:
- the Customer has used the trial shoe service and has then confirmed the size to put into production;
- the Customer has used the manual measurement service, which represents only a purchase advice and not an objective calculation of the foot size, whose risk of accuracy rests with the Customer;
- the Customer has indicated the size, refusing one or both of the measurement methods.
14. Cancellations
If the Customer wishes to modify or cancel the order already sent, he must send promptly, and in any case before receipt of the order confirmation email, an email to the address help@dis.shoes. The cancellation of the order by the customer is not permitted once DIS has notified the Customer of the order acceptance confirmation.
15. Legal guarantee of conformity
15.1. The legal guarantees provided for by articles 129, 130 and 132 of the Italian Consumer Code (Legislative Decree 206/2005 and subsequent amendments and additions) apply to the sale of the Products, which the Customer is invited to consult in full. The seller is liable to the consumer for a lack of conformity existing at the time of delivery of the goods. The warranty covering a lack of conformity has a duration of 2 (two) years from the moment of purchase or delivery of the goods. In the presence of a lack of conformity, during the period of the legal guarantee, the consumer is entitled to the repair or replacement of the goods to obtain the restoration of conformity without charge; where this is not possible, as the two primary remedies are not feasible or are excessively burdensome for the seller, the consumer can request a reduction in the price or termination of the contract. Faults or defects caused by accidental events or by the user's responsibility or by use of the product that does not comply with its intended use and/or with the provisions of the technical documentation attached to the product and/or what is indicated in the Product Data Sheet on this website and/or on the product label. In any case, the Customer loses these rights if he does not notify DIS of the lack of conformity within the term of 2 (two) months from the date of discovery. There is no lack of conformity if, at the time of conclusion of the contract, the consumer was aware of the defect and could not ignore it with ordinary diligence or if the lack of conformity derives from instructions or materials provided by the consumer.
15.2. The customer who wants to take advantage of the legal remedies must:
- formally report the defect, within the terms indicated, to the address help@dis.shoes
- arrange for the return of the goods to DIS, by writing an email to the address help@ dis.shoes with subject “DENUNCIATION OF DEFECTS - ORDER N. (indicate the order number), attaching photos of the defect. Once DIS has ascertained the presence of the defect and authorized the return via email, the good must be placed in its original packaging, inserted in a special packaging for shipping and sent to DIS - Viale del Lavoro - 62014 Corridonia (MC). In this case, DIS will arrange for the replacement of the goods or repair or an appropriate reduction of the price.
15.3. If DIS finds that there is no defect, the goods will not be repaired, refunded or replaced.
16. Errors or inaccuracies
DIS undertakes to provide constantly updated information in the sections of the Website relating to the description and/or sale of the Products.
