An asset is considered used beyond normal diligence in the case of use beyond that necessary to establish its nature, characteristics and operations (e.g. in case of removal of the labels, if the clothing item was worn rather than just being tried on). In such cases, Outsourcing shall promptly notify the Customer of the damage and of the non-compliances found when receiving the items.

Warranty
21. The purchased products benefit from the legal guarantee of conformity of products pursuant to the applicable consumer protection law. Outsourcing is liable for any lack of conformity, already existing at the time of the delivery of the products, that becomes apparent within 2 years from delivery of the products.
22. Any complaint for lack of conformity must be communicated in due time to Outsourcing with a description of the non conformity.
23. Before sending back the defective Products to Outsourcing, the Customer may make a request to proceed with the return. If the Customer is a registered user, he could request the return by accessing the section of the personal area “My orders”, by clicking on the link ’Return us your product', and book online the home address for the pickup.
If the Customer has made the purchase without being registered and does not own an account, he must contact Customer Service directly to arrange the home pickup service.
24. Once the Product has been received and its defective nature has been verified, Outsourcing will send the Customer an e-mail confirming the acceptance of the return.
In the event that the defect reported by the Customer is not found, the Customer shall not be entitled to the remedies set out in the following paragraphs. In such a case, the Customer shall only have the right to withdraw the returned Products at the warehouse of the Company S.r.l., at own risk and at own expense.
25. The Customer shall be entitled to have the non-conforming Products restored, free of charge, by means of replacement. Under no circumstances will tailoring changes be made to the garments purchased since these would be overly costly for Outsourcing. Likewise, no costs that the Customer incurs in order to make tailor-made adjustments and/or alterations to the items purchased will be reimbursed, and will therefore remain at the exclusive expense of the customer.
26. In the cases set out by law, the Customer may choose between either cancelling the purchase or a price reduction. These remedies in the case of delivery of a plurality of Products shall apply only to the non-conforming Product unless the customer cannot be reasonably expected to keep only the conforming Products.
General provisions
27. In the event that one or more of these T&C were to be found void, voidable, unlawful or ineffective, this will not result in total ineffectiveness of the T&C. The provision in question will be replaced by a similar valid provision which takes due account of the intention and content thereof, in compliance with and in accordance with current regulations.
It is finally being informed that in no case could requests be fulfilled for tailoring changes to be made to the purchased clothing items.
Likewise, no costs which the purchaser would have incurred to make on his own any tailoring adjustments and/or alterations to the purchased clothing items will be refunded, which will so remain exclusively incumbent on the said customer.
In cases of flawed clothing items, the Customer is always and in any case invited to make contact with the Customer Service as soon as possible and in any case within the period of possible return of the product, on the score of any prior agreements of the case.
28. These T&C are subject to Swiss substantive law, without prejudice to the protection afforded to the consumer by mandatory applicable law in accordance with art. 6, para. 2, Rome I Regulation when applicable.
29.
