Online Returns (Distance Sales)

If your online purchase is not suitable, you have the right to cancel your order under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013.

You must notify us within 14 days of receiving your goods that you wish to cancel. You then have a further 14 days to return the goods to us.

To initiate a return, please complete our Online Returns Form and include it with your item(s).

Returned items must be:

  • Unused
  • In their original condition
  • With all original packaging and labels attached

You must include your Foothills order number and clear instructions regarding whether you require a refund or exchange.


Exchanges (Online Orders)

If you would prefer an exchange (for example, a different size or colour), please indicate this clearly when returning your item.

Exchanges are subject to stock availability.

If the requested replacement is unavailable, we will issue a refund instead.

If the replacement item is of higher value, you will be required to pay the difference before dispatch. If it is of lower value, we will refund the difference.


Return Postage (Online Orders)

Unless the goods are faulty or incorrect, return postage costs are the responsibility of the customer.

Returned goods remain the responsibility of the customer until they are safely received by us. We strongly recommend using a reliable tracked or signed-for service and retaining proof of postage, as we cannot be responsible for items lost or damaged in transit.

Due to previous delivery issues, we do not recommend using Evri for returns. We cannot accept responsibility for lost or delayed items.

Proof of postage does not constitute proof of delivery.


Refunds (Online Orders – Non-Faulty Goods)

Once we receive your returned goods, we will process your refund within 14 days.

Refunds will be issued using the original payment method.

We will refund:

  • The cost of the goods
  • The standard delivery charge (if the entire order is cancelled)

We are not required to refund any premium delivery upgrades selected at checkout.

We may make a deduction from your refund if the goods show signs of use beyond what is necessary to inspect them.


In-Store Returns

For items purchased in-store, we offer refunds, exchanges or credit notes within 21 days of purchase, provided that:

  • The item is unused
  • It is returned in its original condition
  • You provide proof of purchase

This 21-day returns period forms part of our customer service commitment, including our boot fit guarantee.

Refunds will be issued using the original payment method where possible.

After 21 days, refunds or exchanges are offered only if the goods are faulty or not as described, in accordance with the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

This policy does not affect your statutory rights.


Faulty Goods

Your rights regarding faulty goods are protected under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

If goods are faulty, not as described, or not fit for purpose:

  • Please contact us as soon as possible.

You are entitled to a full refund within the first 30 days of delivery if the item is faulty.
  • After 30 days, we will offer a repair or replacement in accordance with your statutory rights.

Where appropriate and reasonable, faulty goods may be repaired rather than replaced. If repair is not possible or cannot be completed within a reasonable time, we will provide an appropriate remedy in accordance with your statutory rights.

If an item is confirmed as faulty.

  • We will provide a free return postage label, or
  • Refund your reasonable return postage costs.

Some items may need to be returned for inspection or testing before a fault is confirmed.


Excluded Items

For hygiene reasons, we do not accept returns of underwear unless faulty.

This does not affect your statutory rights.


Condition of Returned Items

For health and safety reasons, all clothing and footwear returned must be clean.

The Health and Safety at Work Act prohibits us from asking staff to handle soiled items. We reserve the right to refuse returns that are not returned in a hygienic condition.

Silva Expedition Compass

Season:SS24

Brand:Silva

Code:37448

Product Description

The Silva Expedition Compass is for experienced users and professionals. Silva Expedition is a traditional baseplate compass with many high-end features, such as a slope card and a scale lanyard.

The Silva Expedition features easy-handling rubber housing, silicon rubber feet for precision map work, detachable safety-release distance lanyard, night-enabling luminous markings, magnifying lens, a clinometer for measuring slope angle, map-measuring scales in mm or inches and GPS scales 1:25,000, 1:40 000 and 1:50,000, plus a built-in adjuster for magnetic declination (including permanent local adjustment).

SLOPE CARD

The slope card is great both for detecting avalanche risk and for determining how challenging your journey will be. By knowing the slope, you can also judge any extra distance that you need to go due to the slope. Always take caution in steep terrain. The risk of avalanches increases if the slope is steeper than 30 degrees. The slope card will help you detect this risk.

SCALE LANYARD

This compass model is equipped with a detachable scale lanyard that works like a ruler. The scale lanyard has two scales on it: 1:25 and 1:50, which makes it easier to measure the distance of your hike. Since it's soft and bendable, it’s easy to place directly onto your route on the map when you are out in the terrain – or when you are planning for your next adventure.

Features

  • Slope card. Measure avalanche risk, slopes and extra distance
  • Detachable distance lanyard with scales to measure longer distances
  • Map measuring scales; mm, inch, GPS scales 1:24, 1:25, 1:40 and 1:50
  • Rotatable housing – use with the SILVA 1-2-3 System®
  • Magnifying lens for precision map work
  • Rubber grip – easy handling
  • Rubber friction feet - improved grip against map
  • Built-in permanent adjuster for magnetic declination
  • Luminous markings that enable night navigation
  • Robust material that withstands tough treatment and conditions
  • For advanced users and professionals
