9. Product Faults & Warranty Framework
Indigo Workwear takes genuine manufacturing defects seriously. However, not all issues reported as faulty qualify as product defects.
A product may only be considered faulty if a manufacturing defect existed at the time of purchase and affects the structural integrity or intended performance of the product.
What Does NOT Qualify as a Fault
Normal wear and tear.
Damage caused by misuse, impact, or environmental exposure.
Improper care or cleaning.
Comfort issues or personal preference.
Incorrect sizing.
Minor cosmetic imperfections.
Industry-standard size variation (2–4%).
Product breakdown due to heavy trade use.
Colour variations caused by lighting, photography, or production batches.
Differences between product images and actual colour due to screen or device settings.
Fault & Warranty Reporting Process
Email orders@indigoworkwear.com.au with clear photos of the issue, a brief description, and your order number.
Our customer service team will review the information and advise the next steps.
If required, the item must be returned to our store for inspection.
Customers are responsible for shipping costs when sending items for warranty or fault assessment.
Prepaid return labels are not provided for warranty inspections.
Warranty Coverage
Warranty coverage varies by brand and is determined at the brand’s discretion. Not all brands provide manufacturer warranties.
If a claim is approved, the remedy will follow the brand’s policy, which may include repair, replacement, or store credit/gift card to the approved value.
If a claim is rejected, the item may be returned to the customer at their expense.
10. Important Acknowledgement
By purchasing from Indigo Workwear, customers acknowledge that fault claims require inspection, brand approval may be required, and warranty outcomes are not solely determined by Indigo Workwear.
