Exclusive Remedy: Refund or Store Credit for Defective Product
If LaCrosse determines, after having the opportunity to evaluate the alleged defective product, that such product does not, in LaCrosse's sole judgment, conform to this limited warranty, LaCrosse will, at its option and in its sole discretion, either repair or replace (in the form of a website credit or possible refund) the product without charge to customer. LaCrosse shall have no liability or responsibility under this limited warranty beyond repair or replacement of the defective product, and repair or replacement of the defective product shall be customer's sole and exclusive remedy for breach of this limited warranty. LaCrosse makes no warranties, and expressly disclaims all warranties, with respect to any repaired product or replacement product.
Exercise of Limited Warranty Rights
If customer purchased the product direct from LaCrosse, customer must, to exercise customer's rights under this limited warranty, deliver, mail or ship the alleged defective product (postage, shipping charges and insurance prepaid by customer) to the LaCrosse Returns Department within the applicable warranty period, together with a copy of a dated sales receipt as proof of purchase and a brief description of the warranty problem. If customer purchased the product from an authorized LaCrosse distributor or retailer, then all warranty claims must be made through such distributor or retailer and customer must, to exercise its rights under this limited warranty, deliver, mail or ship the alleged defective product (postage, shipping charges and insurance prepaid) to such distributor or retailer within the applicable warranty period, together with a written report setting forth the date of purchase and a brief description of the warranty problem. Distributor or retailer, as applicable, must e-mail or call the LaCrosse Customer Service Department (lacrossefootwear.com or 1-800-323-BOOT) and obtain a return authorization number ("R/A") before returning any alleged defective product to LaCrosse for evaluation. No returns will be accepted for evaluation unless the product is accompanied by a LaCrosse R/A and returned within 30 days of issuance of such R/A. Failure to comply with these procedures shall void this limited warranty.

EXCEPT FOR THIS LIMITED WARRANTY, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, LACROSSE DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.

State Law and Other Jurisdiction Rights
Some states and other jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to customer. Similarly, some foreign jurisdictions may require longer product warranty periods, in which case a customer in such a jurisdiction would be entitled to the warranty coverage period required by the jurisdiction in which the customer resides. This limited warranty gives customer specific legal rights, and customer may also have other rights, which may vary from state to state, or jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
International Warranty
For all international warranties, please reach out to our customer service team by starting a warranty claim as the warranty for your region may differ.
Warning: Snake Boot
LaCrosse makes no warranty that its snake boots are impenetrable against every snake bite, as no snake boot is 100% snake proof. There are serious dangers and risks in being in an environment with snakes and you should not rely upon the snake boot as providing complete protection against all snake bites. You should use extreme caution in any environment with snakes, and avoid all confrontations with snakes, to insure your personal safety. You are, in wearing LaCrosse's snake boot in a snake environment, assuming all risks and damages arising therefrom, including all risk of injury or death from a bite while wearing the snake boot, and LaCrosse shall have no liability with respect thereto.
