SHIPPING POLICY

Last Updated: [INSERT DATE]

At Max Breeches, we aim to process and deliver your orders safely and efficiently. This Shipping Policy explains how orders are processed, shipped and delivered when you purchase products through our website.

By placing an order with Max Breeches, you acknowledge and agree to the terms of this Shipping Policy.


1. ORDER PROCESSING

Orders are generally processed after payment has been successfully received and the order has been confirmed.

Most in-stock orders are processed within [INSERT PROCESSING TIME] business days.

Processing times may be longer during:

  • Sales and promotional periods

  • Public holidays

  • Peak shopping seasons

  • Product launches

  • High-volume order periods

Processing time is separate from shipping and transit time.

Once your order has been dispatched, you will receive a shipping confirmation and tracking information where tracking is available.


2. SHIPPING METHODS

We may use different shipping carriers and services depending on the destination, order size, product availability and shipping method selected at checkout.

Available shipping options and applicable shipping charges will generally be displayed during checkout.

Estimated delivery times provided at checkout are estimates only and are not guaranteed unless expressly stated otherwise.

Shipping services may include standard and expedited delivery options depending on the destination.

Delivery times vary depending on the destination and shipping method selected.

Typical delivery times may vary based on:

  • Destination country and region

  • Shipping carrier

  • Customs clearance

  • Public holidays

  • Weather conditions

These timeframes are estimates and should not be considered guaranteed delivery dates unless expressly stated otherwise.


4. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING

Max Breeches may ship products to customers in countries outside India.

International orders may be subject to additional customs procedures, import duties, taxes, brokerage fees or other charges imposed by the destination country.

Unless expressly stated otherwise at checkout:

Customs duties, import taxes, VAT, brokerage charges and other destination-country fees are the responsibility of the customer.

Max Breeches does not control the amount of these charges and cannot guarantee whether or when customs authorities will impose them.

Customers are responsible for ensuring that the products ordered can legally be imported into their destination country.


5. CUSTOMS AND IMPORT DUTIES

International shipments may be inspected or delayed by customs authorities.

Customs processing times are outside the control of Max Breeches.

If customs duties, taxes or other charges are applicable, the customer may be required to pay them before the shipment can be delivered.

If a customer refuses to pay applicable customs duties or import charges and the package is returned to Max Breeches, the original shipping charges and any return or carrier charges may be deducted from any refund, where permitted by applicable law.

Max Breeches is not responsible for delays caused by customs authorities.


6. SHIPPING COSTS

Shipping charges are calculated based on factors including the delivery destination, package size, weight, shipping method and applicable carrier rates.

The applicable shipping charge will generally be displayed at checkout before you complete your purchase.

Shipping charges are generally non-refundable unless otherwise required by applicable law or expressly stated in our Refund Policy.

Promotional free-shipping offers may be subject to minimum order values, geographic restrictions or additional terms.


7. ORDER TRACKING

Where tracking is available, tracking information will be provided after the order has been dispatched.

Tracking information may take some time to become active after the carrier receives the shipment.

Once tracking information has been provided, customers can monitor the shipment directly through the relevant carrier.

Max Breeches is not responsible for temporary inaccuracies or delays in carrier tracking information.


8. INCORRECT OR INCOMPLETE SHIPPING INFORMATION

Customers are responsible for providing accurate and complete shipping information at checkout.

This includes:

  • Full name

  • Complete delivery address

  • Apartment, unit or building information where applicable

  • Postal or ZIP code

  • City and country

  • Valid telephone number

  • Valid email address

If an order has not yet been dispatched, contact us as soon as possible if you need to correct your shipping information.

Once an order has been dispatched, we may not be able to change the delivery address.

If an order is returned because the address provided was incorrect or incomplete, additional shipping charges may apply for re-delivery.


9. DELIVERY ATTEMPTS

The shipping carrier may make one or more delivery attempts depending on its policies.

If a shipment cannot be delivered because the recipient is unavailable, refuses delivery, provides incorrect information or fails to collect the shipment from a designated collection location, the package may be returned to the sender.

Any additional shipping or return charges resulting from such circumstances may be the responsibility of the customer, where permitted by applicable law.


10. LOST OR DELAYED SHIPMENTS

Delivery delays can occur for reasons outside our control, including:

  • Carrier delays

  • Customs processing

  • Weather

  • Natural disasters

  • Strikes or labour disruptions

  • Public holidays

  • Government restrictions

  • Incorrect address information

  • Unexpected transportation disruptions

Max Breeches does not guarantee delivery by a particular date unless expressly agreed in writing.

If your shipment appears to be significantly delayed, please contact us with your order number so that we can assist with an appropriate carrier enquiry where available.


11. LOST OR STOLEN PACKAGES

If tracking information indicates that a package has been delivered but you cannot locate it, please first check:

  • Your delivery address

  • Mailroom or reception area

  • Neighbours

  • Building management

  • Safe-place locations

  • Carrier delivery photographs or notes, where available

You should also contact the shipping carrier directly.

Please contact Max Breeches if the package remains missing after these checks.

Where appropriate, we may work with the carrier to investigate the shipment.

Max Breeches cannot guarantee replacement or refund for packages confirmed by the carrier as successfully delivered, except where required by applicable law.


12. DAMAGED PACKAGES

If your package arrives visibly damaged, please inspect the products as soon as possible.

Where possible, take clear photographs of:

  • The outer packaging

  • Shipping label

  • Any visible damage

  • The damaged product

  • Internal packaging

Contact Max Breeches at info@maxbreeches.com as soon as reasonably possible and provide your order number and supporting photographs.

We will review the matter and determine the appropriate resolution in accordance with our Refund and Return Policy and applicable law.


13. WRONG OR MISSING ITEMS

If you receive an incorrect product, an incorrect size or colour, or an item appears to be missing from your order, contact us at info@maxbreeches.com as soon as possible.

Please provide:

  • Order number

  • Customer name

  • Description of the issue

  • Photographs where relevant

We will review the order and, where appropriate, arrange a replacement, correction or other suitable resolution in accordance with our policies and applicable law.


14. MULTIPLE-PRODUCT ORDERS

If an order contains multiple products, Max Breeches may ship the products together or in separate shipments depending on product availability, warehouse processing and operational requirements.

If products are shipped separately, you may receive separate tracking information.

Unless otherwise stated, you will not be charged additional shipping solely because an order is split into multiple shipments.


15. PRE-ORDER AND OUT-OF-STOCK PRODUCTS

Products identified as pre-order, made-to-order or temporarily unavailable may have different processing and delivery timeframes.

The estimated dispatch or delivery timeframe for such products will be communicated on the relevant product page, checkout or order confirmation where applicable.

If an order contains both immediately available and delayed products, we may ship available products separately or wait until the complete order is ready, depending on the circumstances.


16. CUSTOM, WHOLESALE AND PRIVATE-LABEL ORDERS

Custom, wholesale, bulk and private-label orders may be subject to different production, packaging and shipping arrangements.

Such orders may have:

  • Minimum order quantities

  • Custom production timelines

  • Sample approval requirements

  • Separate shipping arrangements

  • Different payment terms

  • Different delivery schedules

Shipping and delivery terms for custom, wholesale or private-label orders may be agreed separately in writing between Max Breeches and the customer.

Where a separate written agreement exists, its shipping terms will apply to that order to the extent of any conflict with this Shipping Policy.


17. RESTRICTED DELIVERY LOCATIONS

Certain products or shipping services may not be available for delivery to every country, territory or postal address.

We reserve the right to restrict or refuse shipments to locations where delivery is unavailable, prohibited, impractical or subject to legal or operational restrictions.

If we cannot ship an order to the destination provided, we will contact you using the information associated with your order.


18. SHIPPING TO PO BOXES AND MILITARY ADDRESSES

Availability of delivery to PO Boxes, military addresses, remote locations or other restricted addresses depends on the shipping carrier and destination.

Certain express or courier services may not be available for such addresses.

Where a shipping method is unavailable, an alternative delivery method may be required.


19. ADDRESS CHANGES AFTER ORDER PLACEMENT

If you need to change your delivery address after placing an order, contact us immediately at:

Email: info@maxbreeches.com

We will make reasonable efforts to accommodate the request if the order has not yet been dispatched.

Once an order has been dispatched, we cannot guarantee that the address can be changed.


20. SHIPPING PROMOTIONS

From time to time, Max Breeches may offer free shipping, discounted shipping or other delivery promotions.

Promotional shipping offers may be subject to:

  • Minimum purchase requirements

  • Specific countries or regions

  • Specific products

  • Promotional periods

  • Exclusions

  • Other conditions communicated with the promotion

Where promotional terms conflict with this Shipping Policy, the specific promotional terms will apply.


21. FORCE MAJEURE

Max Breeches will not be responsible for shipping or delivery failures or delays caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

Such circumstances may include natural disasters, severe weather, war, terrorism, government actions, civil unrest, strikes, transportation disruptions, pandemics, carrier failures, customs restrictions or other unforeseen events.

Where such circumstances occur, we will make reasonable efforts to minimise disruption and resume normal shipping operations as soon as reasonably possible.


22. REFUNDS AND RETURNS

Shipping-related refunds, product returns and exchanges are subject to our Refund and Return Policy [LINK].

Unless otherwise required by applicable law, original shipping charges may not be refundable.

Customers are responsible for return shipping costs where the return is due to reasons such as change of mind, incorrect size selection or other customer-related reasons, subject to our Refund and Return Policy.

Where Max Breeches is responsible for an incorrect or defective shipment, we will determine the appropriate shipping resolution in accordance with applicable law and our policies.
