The terms are a legally binding contract between you and Itchy Boots (“Itchy Boots” or “we”) and apply to all Agreements between you and Itchy Boots.
This document sets out your rights and responsibilities when you use www.itchyboots.store, so please read it carefully. By using any of the services here, you’re agreeing to the Terms. If you don’t agree with the Terms, you may not use our services. Still with me? Great, read on!

Agreement: every arrangement between you and Itchy Boots to supply one of more Products, including all arrangements concluded within the framework of an organised system for remote sales of Products.
All offers for Products made by Itchy Boots via the webstore are subject to the availability of such Product. An offer shall lapse if the Product to which the offer applies has become unavailable in the meantime. If the Product that you have ordered unfortunately runs out of stock after the purchase order has been placed, we will contact you via the email address that has been provided. If you do not respond within 10 business days, Itchy Boots reserves the right to refund your order in full. All refunds will be made in Euros. You acknowledge and accept the possibility of any deviations in the received amount due to exchange rates in relation to the local currency.
Whilst we attempt to manage stock and cater to the demand as well as possible, Products are limited to the sizes, colors and variants as offered in the webstore. If a particular size, color or variant is not listed in the webstore, it is not, or not currently available for purchase.
On rare occasions, you might find that the Product you receive does not match what you saw online. If that occurs, let us know. We strive to be as accurate as possible. However, we do not warrant that all Product descriptions, images, photographs, pricing and other information are accurate, complete, current, or error-free. In addition, all weights, color and size-dimensions are approximate. Apparent mistakes or apparent errors in the offer do not bind Itchy Boots.
In the event of an error in an order confirmation, in processing an order, in delivering a Product or otherwise, we reserve the right to correct any error and revise your order accordingly, or to cancel the order and refund any amount charged. If you receive an order that you believe contains a mistake, we encourage you to contact us right away so that we may correct the error.
