Questions About Payment

Which currencies can I buy in?

You can buy in various currencies on our international websites.

What payment methods can I use?

The payment methods are listed at the footer of each of the individual websites, we take all major credit and debit cards, Apple Pay and Paypal.

Do you accept cheques?

No, all orders need to be processed with a valid credit or debit card or through paypal on our website or the sales hotline +44 (0) 1425 204 445.

If I get an error on the checkout will i be charged?

If your registred billing address does not match your card address, your bank will refuse the payment when you try to order. Sometimes banks may take what is called a 'shadow payment' which is the bank 'reserving' the funds but this will then be removed when you have completed the payment successfully. If you see two payments go through, don't worry the 'shadow payment' will be removed by your bank. Please note this is not controlled by us, it is down to the bank, it may appear the amount has been debited but it actually hasn't been and can take a few days to be removed. If you wish for the shadow payment to be removed quicker, please contact your card issuing bank.

Do prices on the website include VAT?

Yes, prices on the website include all relevant VAT charges.  However, for deliveries outside the UK, you may be required to pay any other applicable sales tax or customs duty charges in your own country.

Questions About Returns and Exchanges

Can I return my goods?

Yes, you can return your goods up to 30 days after receipt so long as they have not been used and are in perfect condition with their original packaging and any labels and hangtags still attached.  Please see our returns policies for further information on returning products from Australia and International returns.

If I have removed the tags, can I return my purchase?

Unfortunately not, our returns policy strictly says no tags should be removed, so please keep the tags on when trying the products on.

What do I do if I purchased my Proviz Product from an Independent retailer, not the Proviz Website online and I want to exchange it?

If you have purchased from another independent retailer you will need to speak to them directly with any returns/exchange/refund queries.

Questions About Warranty and Product After-Care

Do Proviz products come with a guarantee/warranty?

Yes, there is a limited 12-month warranty on all products for product malfunction. This does not cover damage caused in the event of an accident (see the repair section below) or damage caused when using the product eg. catching a sleeve on something sharp. If you have purchased your product from an independent retailer or shop (not our website) please take your warranty up with them as we have strict distribution agreements in place with our retailers that we have to follow. So you will need to contact the retailer that you purchased your gear from directly.

How do I deal with a Warranty issue?

If you have a warranty issue please contact [email protected].

How do I wash my Proviz Clothing?

Please look at the washing label on the product and follow the instructions carefully, you can also see the general washing guides here.

Are there repair patches available if I have an accident?

We don't have specific patches for each product however we recommend Tenacious Tape which is available at all good outdoor retailers and online https://gearaid.eu/collections/tenacious-tape

Please see instructions on how to repair the product

1. Clean and dry the area around the tear.
2. Smooth out the product and place it on a hard flat surface
3. Place the tape over the tear and measure how much you need. Where possible leave 2.5 cm of excess tape around the rip.
4. Use scissors to cut the tape and round off the corners (this reduces the chance of it from catching and peeling up).
5. Line up the different parts of the tear as close as possible.
6. Peel off the back layer and place the tape over the tear pressing from the middle out, smoothing the fabric and removing any air bubbles.
7. The product can now be worn and is water-resistant, but allow 24 hours for the adhesive to fully set.

We also offer a crash replacement discount, please email [email protected] with the photos of the product and we can send you out a discount code.

Are you able to recycle products and do trade in for old products?

Yes please see our sustainability page
