If your package is damaged please contact us at info@soccermaxx.ca and provide us with your order number.

What if I think an item is defective?

Due to the intense nature of the game, all items – especially footwear and gloves – will experience normal wear and tear such as: color loss, material wear, loose threads, small gaps between the outsole and the upper, etc.

Normal wear and tear will begin to show even within the first few uses. This is both normal and expected. These occurrences are common and not indicative of an item’s defectiveness (poor workmanship or materials).

Very few items are truly defective. Genuine defects most often reveal themselves within 30 days of purchase. An item’s price does not indicate longevity, merely the quality of the materials and technology used in its construction.

Most products sold through SoccerMaxx.ca come with a manufacturer’s warranty. Customer’s seeking information about a product’s manufacturer’s warranty should directly contact the manufacturer. The manufacturers warranty only applies to original purchases and does not extend to replacement items. Any replacement items will fall under the original warranty.

• Colour loss
• Loose threads
• Small gaps between the outsole and the upper
• Scratches
• Cracked leather on a shoe

• Stripped Cleats

Defect Qualifications: Items in which their seams have come apart Broken cleats on a pair of soccer shoes What is NOT considered a Manufactures Defect…? Wear and tear from ordinary use and exposure which may include cracked leather on a shoe. Refusing to take proper care of the item such as NOT using shoe care on soccer shoes. IMPORTANT!

Shoe Care

Why should I keep my shoes clean?

Proper care of soccer shoes will not only determine how long they last, it is an important ritual of the sport, and will enforce discipline. It is most important to shoes for leather cleats, but synthetic ones (made for younger players) also benefit from proper care.

For leather & synthetic shoe care, follow these steps:


• Understand fit. Shoes, especially leather ones, mold to the foot, allowing for an optimum feel for the ball.
• Start when shoes are right out of the box. Put them on, tie them, and wear them as much as possible before using them in game.
• Hand-wash only. Never put cleats in the washing machine. This breaks down the materials.
• Tap shoes together or against a hard surface to remove mud stuck to the bottoms after use.
• Clean shoes immediately after use. Wipe soiled cleats with a damp cloth.
• Take more drastic measures for very dirty cleats. Soak them in lukewarm, soapy water. Some players even take them into the shower while bathing.
• Apply leather protector, followed by shoe polish, after each cleaning.
• Buff cleats after the polish dries.
• Dry naturally or in front of a dehumidifier. Try stuffing them with newspaper. Never machine-dry.

Do's and Dont's

DO's

  • Large chunks of soil are best removed using warm water and a brush or cloth.
  • Dry your shoes; fill them with newspaper, which is highly absorbent. Place shoe in a dry place.
  • The best way to care for a leather shoe is to use a shoe wax. Its keeps the leather soft and adds oils back into it.
  • When storing the shoes, use a shoe tree. This way the shoe will maintain their original shape.
  • Any soccer shoe in the course of its use, may develop a small gap between the outsole and the shank. This is NORMAL and will not affect how you play. It is NOT a defect.

DONT'S:

  • Do not put the shoes in the washing machine.
  • Do not put the shoes in a bag when they are wet.
  • Do not expose the shoes to direct sunlight or a near heat source like an oven or radiator when they are wet. The shoe must dry from the inside to the outside. Leather shoes will crack which reduces the lifespan of the shoe.
  • Shoes do not require waterproofing.
