We deliver the order at the address that has been given by you when placing your order. Where we are unable to deliver to your address due to the cause not attributable to us (e.g. in case of incorrect address), we may:
- Make another delivery attempt at a later date upon notice; or
- Deliver your parcel at a local pick up point agreed with you.
The times of delivery mentioned by us are only indications and are not guaranteed, provided, we will take measures in 7 days after your order, for timely delivery (or, 3 business days if the price has already been paid). The latest time of delivery is 30 days. We try to inform you about any delays, in so far as possible. In so far as permitted by law, we are not liable for any damages as a result of late delivery.
Important: it is important that you check the parcel at the time of receipt. Even though you have the statutory right of withdrawal (as set out below in Article 10), where the parcel is damaged or in any way not as you would expect it, you would need to inform us immediately for smooth resolution in accordance with Article 11.
Important: Subject to the statutory right of withdrawal (defined below in Article 10), once you have accepted the parcel (without reporting any damage to us), the risk of loss, damage or reduction in value of the product (s) is at your expense and risk. This means that if the product (s) is lost or damaged after you have accepted it, you are responsible for that loss or damage and you will therefore have no right to a refund of your money from us.
10. I want to cancel my order; what must I do?
Although we would regret this very much, you are entitled to cancel any order and without giving a reason. There are a number of special rules for this, which we will explain in more detail below. It makes a difference whether the product (s) have already been sent to you or not.
If the product (s) have been passed on to our warehouse for shipment, you can cancel your order via the website otherwise please contact our customer service for cancellation. Via the website you can simply cancel your order by selecting the “return complete order” button.
If the product (s) have already been delivered to you, you can cancel your order as described below.
The law gives you the right to dissolve all or part of the order within 7 days after delivery of the product of your order without giving any reason for doing so. This is called the “statutory right of withdrawal”. You can contact us within the period of the statutory right of withdrawal:
- By email to service@footlockerkorea.kr; or
- By letter to Foot Locker Korea LLC. 29 Hongik-ro, Mapo-gu, 04038, Seoul, Korea.
Important: you must send back the product (s) to us or hand them in at a Foot Locker store of your choice within a period of 14 days after you have made use of your right of withdrawal. Even if the product(s) is returned to us after a period exceeding 14 days, if you have already expressly notified us of your intention to cancel your order within the 7-day period under the statutory right of withdrawal as set out above, such cancellation will still remain valid. However, you may still become liable for any loss we may incur due to the delayed return of the product(s).
For clarity, you have:
- 7 days from the date of delivery to inform us of your intention to cancel an order (without any reason); and
- Within 14 days from the date on which you informed us of your right to cancel your order, we must have received the product (s).
If you are returning the product (s) to us by handing them in at a Foot Locker store of your choice within 7 days following the date of delivery, it is not necessary to inform us of your intention to cancel.
Important: After the delivery of the product(s), you may not return it or request for exchange in reliance on the above statutory right of withdrawal if:
- The product(s) has been lost or damaged by a cause attributable to you (however, you will still be entitled to cancel the order if you have only damaged the packaging in order to check the product(s) inside);
- The value of the product(s) has significantly decreased due to your use or partial consumption;
- The value of the product(s) has significantly decreased due to the lapsed time; or
- The packaging of the original product(s) has been damaged where the original product(s) can be replicated in to a product with the same functions and specifications (e.g. CDs).
However, in relation to items 2 and 4 above, if Foot Locker has failed to inform you of such restrictions on your right to cancel the order by displaying a notice to such effect in a place easily noticeable by you or providing you with sample product(s), your statutory right of 3withdrawal will not be restricted.
Important: we do set the condition that the product (s) and packaging are in the original unused condition and are complete. This means that you must treat the product (s) and the packaging with care (in the same manner as you would do in a store). You may only unpack the product (s) in so far as this is necessary to be able to assess the size, nature, characteristics and working of the product (s). You may, for instance, try on clothing or shoes for size but you may not wear them. Do not remove tags or labels when trying on the product (s) as such removal will constitute a loss or damage to our product(s) due to a reason attributable to you and you may not exercise the statutory right of withdrawal.
Important: the state of the product (s) returned is checked by us on receipt. If the product (s) is worn or damaged, we reserve the right to come back to you as to the re-sell value of the product (s).
- When returning all products purchased, if the procedure has been followed and the products are in new and unused condition, we will trigger a refund to you of the full purchase amount plus shipping costs within 3 business days following our receipt of the returned product(s).
- When returning only part of an order, if the procedure has been followed and the product (s) is in new and unused condition, we will only trigger a refund to you of the value of the product (s) without the shipping costs.
Important: additional costs as a result of the more expensive shipping method chosen by you than the cheapest standard delivery offered are never refunded.
Important: we will refund your purchase amount in the same manner as your purchase payment was made.
- If you have paid for the product(s) by credit card or any means other than cash, we will request the payment service provider to stop or cancel the payment (or if we have already received the payment, we will reimburse the payment service provider) and immediately notify;
11. What is my warranty if the product (s) is defective?
As a consumer, you are entitled to the statutory warranty in Korea, including, without limitation, your entitlement to cancel your order within 3 months from the date of receiving the product(s), or within 30 days from the date you knew or could have known the fact that the contents of the product(s) are different from what was indicated or advertised, or have been performed differently from the terms of the relevant contract. These “Rules of the Game” do not affect your legal warranty rights. If one of the rules in the “Rules of the Game” differs from the warranty rights to your disadvantage, the relevant rule does not apply, but the law in the country where you reside applies instead.

- Be free of defects at the time of delivery;
- Comply with what has been agreed upon, what is stated in our offer; and

- To state clearly to us what the defect or problem with the product (s) is; and
- To include several pictures of the product (s) clearly showing the defect and overall state of the product (s).

Our brands and intellectual property rights are very important to us.

For example, the suppliers of the product (s), photographers and copywriters. We would like both you and us to handle these rights with due care.
These rights do not only include all product (s), service and corporate names used, but also texts, images, illustrations, design of the website and logos.
That is why it is important that you only use the information on the website for you personally and not for commercial purposes. It is allowed to make an electronic copy or paper copy from parts of the website, but only in connection with the placement of an order with Foot Locker or to create a profile.
If you want to use our material for another application, you need our explicit permission in writing for this in advance.

19. How far does Foot Locker’s liability go?
For our product (s): In the unlikely case that we do not fulfil our obligations with you correctly, we are responsible for the direct damage resulting from it up to the maximum amount that you paid for the product (s) concerned. Foot Locker shall not be liable for special damages, indirect damages, or other punitive damages that are normally impossible to foresee or those that arise from special circumstances, unless there is a special provision in applicable laws.
However, Foot Locker is responsible for the damage resulting from the inadequate performance in the case of:
1. death or physical injury;
2. intent or wilful recklessness of Foot Locker itself and/or its management; and
3. any other damage for which the liability cannot be statutorily excluded or limited.
It may always happen that we are unable to meet our obligations because something happens beyond our control. We call this “force majeure”. If it is a question of force majeure, we are also not responsible for any costs and damage resulting from it.
For the avoidance of doubt, all products listed on our website have passed the KC Mark test and adhere to the Supplier’s Confirmation of Conformity.
