Terms and Conditions

You must read our full terms and Conditions in the section below before making a purchase. These are quite long, so you might consider a cup of Coffee or Green Tea or similar before going for the full read. Meanwhile, some key points you may wish to know before wading through all the small print are:

 All our garment prices are in Pounds Sterling and exclude the cost of delivery, which will be stated on the store page showing that garment.

Please note that while we make every effort to make sure that our photographs and descriptions are accurate representations of our products, certain details such as exact colour can vary ever so slightly depending on which computer screen you are viewing.

Because we hand print virtually every fabric, and because nearly everyone’s computer screen can have colour variations, tiny colour discrepancies may also occur – but as designers, we are genuinely fussy gits, so we make every effort to spot things like this so you don’t have to.

If you do wish to cancel your order, you must do so within 7 working days, beginning with the day on which you received the goods.

Our full returns policy is stated in the Terms and Conditions, which you do need to read before purchasing, but the basic policy is that if you’re not happy with your goods, and you comply to our full terms and conditions, then just post them back with a note saying whether you’d like an exchange or a refund and we’ll help – provided garments haven’t been worn, stretched, boil-washed or marked in any way. So no test runs on the mountain bike or at the barbecue please!

(If garments are genuinely faulty, we will obviously exchange them for good ones).

We recommend sending returns by recorded delivery and that you keep proof of posting. Returns are sent at your expense.

If you’d prefer a refund for returned goods, rather than simply another size, we will refund you, within 3 working weeks of our receiving the returns, the full amount you paid less our postage and packing costs. If you return something purchased using an offer or discount, we can only refund the price you paid at the time, less postage and packing.

All returns for an exchange or a refund must be submitted within 7 days of the date your order arrived.

And now, to protect your rights, and because we’d far rather see you at the beach than in court, please take a look through our full Terms and Conditions and tick the box to show that you have agreed to them:

FULL TERMS AND CONDITIONS;

YOU DO NEED TO READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS BEFORE YOU CAN PLACE YOUR ORDER AND PURCHASE.

If you are not sure about your rights or would like any explanation about them, please write to us at Tribe Worldwear Ltd., 33 Rossmore Road, Parkstone, Dorset, BH12 3NG, UK, or email info@tribeworldwear.com before you place the order. YOU ARE ADVISED TO PRINT AND RETAIN THESE TERMS FOR YOUR RECORDS.

Once we have checked the price and availability of the goods, we will e-mail you again to confirm that we accept your order, and that a contract has thus been made between us. We will not take payment from you until we have accepted your order.

WE DO USE SECURE PAYMENT METHODS.

In the unlikely event that the goods are no longer available, or that we have made a pricing error, we will advise you of this. In this case, you will not receive an e-mail confirming acceptance of your order, and there will be no contract between us.

We will not pass your personal information on to any third party without your permission. Unless solely due to our negligence, we cannot be held liable for any losses you may suffer.

You must be the holder of the Payment card or registered named on the Paypal account you use to make a purchase.  

Delivery

Postage and packing charges are indicated and will be stated at the checkout.

Providing all items in your order are in stock, we aim to deliver as quickly as possible, which should be just a few days, but if they are not in stock, since our products are virtually all hand-printed, please allow approximately 3 to 4 weeks for delivery. Please allow extra time for Highlands, Islands and Northern Ireland and for deliveries overseas.

IF YOU HAVE AN URGENT ORDER, it is always advisable to discuss your requirements with us, please write to us at Tribe Worldwear Ltd., 33 Rossmore Road, Parkstone, Dorset, BH12 3NG, UK or email info@tribeworldwear.com

We will do all that we reasonably can to make deliveries as quickly as possible. We cannot be held responsible for delays beyond our control. If we are unable to make the delivery date we will contact you.

Parcels and packages are normally sent via Royal Mail. Delivery of the Goods shall be made by our carrier to the address for delivery shown in the Order Form. It is important that this address is accurate. Once the Goods have been delivered in accordance with your delivery instructions, you will be responsible for them. Our responsibility for everything other than damage due to our negligence or due to a manufacturing design or design fault will cease upon delivery.

We do not deliver to P.O. Box addresses.

IF THE GOODS ARE LOST OR DAMAGED IN TRANSIT, PLEASE LET US KNOW PROMPTLY.

If a parcel is unable to be delivered by our carriers, an additional charge will be made to cover reposting the order to you. An example of this may be;
the address supplied by you is incorrect or incomplete. 
The parcel is returned by the carrier when they have attempted delivery and failed, and then you have not arranged a redelivery or collection from the carrier. 
The customer requests a change of delivery address after the parcel has been sent.
The charge for resending orders within the UK is the same as the original postal charge (plus Highlands and Islands surcharge if applicable). If we are unable to contact you to make arrangements for redelivering a parcel, then it will be held at our Parkstone office for collection for a maximum of 14 days. If the order is not collected, we cancel the order and refund the cost of your goods, less the delivery charge.

If the order is a multiple order and we are unable to make delivery of the whole order but are able to deliver part we will contact you, informing you of this, and delivery will be on a mutually agreed date. In this instance delivery will be said to be made in installments. Each delivery shall constitute a separate contract and any failure by us to deliver any one or more of the installments in accordance with these conditions, or any claim by you in respect of any one or more installments will not entitle you to treat the contract as a whole as repudiated.

If we fail for any reason within our control to fully/partially deliver your Goods any reimbursement shall be no more than the price of the Goods, together with any delivery and/or reasonable return costs.

Either party is entitled to cancel the contract in respect of non-performance of obligations in relation to delivery. If cancelled, we will refund you any monies already paid by you and any reasonable return costs incurred by you.

Risk and property

As soon as we have delivered the Goods or services, you will be responsible for them. If you delay a delivery our responsibility for everything other than damage due to our negligence will end on the date we agree to deliver them, as set out in the contract.

Subject to the provisions of your RIGHT TO CANCEL, and notwithstanding delivery and the passing of risk in the Goods, or any other provision of these Conditions, the property in the Goods shall not pass to you until we have received in cash or cleared funds payment in full of the price of the Goods. Goods supplied to you are not for resale.  

Warranties,assurances and liability

The terms and conditions of this contract do not affect any additional rights you may have under a manufacturer’s warranty/guarantee. These are rights given to you by the manufacturer in addition to your statutory rights. Any additional rights given to you by the manufacturer in respect of Goods purchased are not incorporated into this contract.

As a consumer you have statutory rights regarding the return of defective Goods and claims in respect of losses caused by any negligence on our part or our failure to carry out our obligations. The terms and conditions of this contract do not affect your statutory rights. For further information regarding these rights contact Trading Standards or Citizens’ Advice Bureau.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: TIME LIMIT FOR NOTIFICATION OF CLAIMS

You are asked to examine the goods as soon as reasonably possible after delivery. Any claim by you based on any defect in the quality or condition of the Goods or their failure to correspond with specification must (whether or not delivery is refused by you) be notified to the company within 7 days from the date of delivery or within a reasonable time after discovery of the defect or failure if it was not apparent on reasonable inspection.

If you are outside the UK, you need to email us before making a claim for a refund or return. Just email us at info@tribeworldwear.com.

Where a valid claim in respect of Goods delivered is notified to us within 7 days of the delivery date, or within a reasonable time if not apparent on reasonable inspection, you are entitled to:

reject the Goods and receive a full refund; Goods will need to be returned to Tribe Worldwear Limited, postage costs will be reimbursed.

Any claims made after 7 days of delivery or exceeding a reasonable time of discovery, we shall be entitled to either:

replace the Goods (or the part in question) free of charge or at our sole discretion refund to you the price of the Goods (or a proportionate part of the price) and we shall have no further liability to you.

Except in respect of death or personal injury caused by our negligence we will not be liable under this contract for any loss or damage caused by us or our agents in circumstances where:

there is no breach of a legal duty of care owed to you by us or by any of our employees or agents;

such loss or damage is not a reasonably foreseeable result of any such breach;

any increase in loss or damage resulting from breach by you of any term of this contract.

In the event that you are using the supply address in part for commercial purposes then no liability for loss of profits or other economic loss arising out of a breach of this agreement can be accepted.

Subject to our obligations, and your rights under the Regulations, we shall not be liable to you or be deemed to be in breach of the contract by reason of any delay in performing, or any failure to perform, any of our obligations in relation to the Goods if the delay or failure was due to any cause beyond our reasonable control.

Your Right to Cancel

While we hope that you are delighted with your order, you have a cooling off period of 7 days after the date on which you have received the Goods to cancel the Contract, and return the Goods at your cost and receive a full refund of the purchase price, minus the original delivery charge.

You don’t have to give any reason for cancellation. However, it would help us to improve our service in the future if you gave us a brief explanation.

If you are outside the UK, you need to email us before we can return goods to you. Just email us at info@tribeworldwear.com.

During the cooling off period any cancellation must be given by written notice by either party. If you are not happy with the item, a returns form can be obtained by emailing info@tribeworldwear.com to be sent to you by email or post.

Goods must be returned complete and undamaged with all accessories and instructions within 7 days of receipt.

The original packing must be returned in reasonable condition. Just enclose the completed returns form with the item and send it to: Returns, Tribe Worldwear Ltd, 33 Rossmore Road,Parkstone, Dorset, BH12 3NG, UK.

Items that are returned to us remain the customer's responsibility (and a refund will not be given) until they are received by us. We strongly recommend that you use recorded delivery or obtain a certificate of posting when you return any parcel.  Certificates of posting are available free at the post office.  You will be responsible for the returned products until they reach us. Goods are returned at your own expense and must be packaged adequately by you to protect them against damage.

A full refund or exchange (excluding p&p cost) will be made within 14 days of receipt. Alternatively, simply return the item to our office for a replacement or refund. This is in addition to your statutory rights. The cancellation policy does not affect your legal rights.

Refunds will only be paid by means of original payment. We cannot refund onto another card issuer's credit or debit card. Refunds will only be given on receipt of returned goods.

If you fail to return the goods, we will collect them, and we will have to charge you the direct cost of collection. If you fail to take reasonable care of the goods before they are returned to us, and this results in damage or deterioration, we will have to charge for this reduction in value.
