“it holds up where it matters most”

“You can feel the difference straight away. The fit stays comfortable through movement, nothing rides up, and the quality actually holds up in play. It’s rare to find courtwear that works this well on court and still feels right off it.”

– Latoya M, BU Bruins

BORN FROM THE GAP BETWEEN COURT AND
EVERYDAY WEAR

Phatduds started with a simple idea: basketball shorts could be made to feel different.

Designed on the Sunshine Coast, Phatduds was created to bring together comfort, individuality and everyday style in a way that felt right both on and off the court.

OUR STORY

PHATDUDS 5-YEAR MANUFACTURING DEFECT WARRANTY

made to be worn. made to last.

At Phatduds, quality matters to us.


From the fabrics we choose to the construction, stitching and finishing details, a lot of thought goes into every pair of Phatduds. We make our shorts to be worn, moved in and enjoyed — on the court, on the street and everywhere in between.


We stand behind the quality and workmanship of our products, which is why Phatduds shorts are backed by our 5-Year Manufacturing Defect Warranty.


This warranty is provided by Vivacious QLD Pty Ltd trading as Phatduds and applies in addition to the rights and remedies you may have under the Australian Consumer Law.

our 5-year warranty

Phatduds warrants our shorts against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of five (5) years from the original date of purchase.

For a claim to fall within this voluntary warranty, the manufacturing defect must appear within that five-year period.


If we determine that your Phatduds have a manufacturing defect covered by this warranty, we will provide an appropriate remedy, which may include repair or replacement of the affected product, at no cost to you.


Where the original product or design is no longer available — particularly with our Limited Edition releases — we may provide a replacement product of comparable value where appropriate.


We will always work with you to find a fair and reasonable solution.

what is a manufacturing defect?

A manufacturing defect is a fault in the materials, construction or workmanship of the garment that was not caused by normal use, wear and tear, accident, misuse or improper care.


Depending on the circumstances, examples may include:
• stitching or seams failing due to a manufacturing or workmanship fault
• faulty attachment or construction of components
• defects in the fabric or materials attributable to manufacture
• faults with hardware, trims or other components resulting from manufacture
• construction faults that affect the intended use of the garment.


Because every situation can be different, warranty claims are assessed individually.

what isn't covered by our 5-year warranty?

Our voluntary 5-Year Manufacturing Defect Warranty does not cover damage resulting from:


• normal wear and tear
• reasonable deterioration associated with the age and use of the garment
• accidental damage
• misuse or use of the garment in a manner for which it was not reasonably intended
• cuts, tears, snagging or abrasion caused during wear
• damage caused by contact with rough or abrasive surfaces
• incorrect washing, drying, ironing or other care contrary to the garment's care instructions
• alterations or modifications to the garment
• damage caused by external factors rather than a fault in the materials or manufacture.


Normal changes to a garment through regular wear and washing are not, by themselves, considered manufacturing defects.


Nothing in these exclusions limits any rights or remedies you may have under the Australian Consumer Law.

making a warranty claim

If something doesn't seem right with your Phatduds, please get in touch with us.


Email help@phatduds.com.au and include:
• your full name
• your contact details
• your order number or other reasonable proof of purchase
• a description of the issue and how it occurred or became apparent
• clear photographs showing the affected area.


Please don't send your shorts back to us before contacting us.


We'll review the information you've provided and let you know if we need anything further or if the garment needs to be returned to us for assessment.

if we need to inspect your phatduds

Sometimes photographs won't tell us everything we need to know.


If Phatduds requires your shorts to be returned for assessment under this warranty, Phatduds will cover the reasonable cost of returning the garment to us.


We will provide you with instructions for the return or advise you how the reasonable return expense will be reimbursed.


Please retain any postage or shipping receipts where we have authorised you to arrange the return yourself, as we may require them to reimburse the reasonable cost.

what happens next?

Once we've received the information we need — and the garment itself where an inspection is required — we'll assess the claim to determine whether the issue is covered by our 5-Year Manufacturing Defect Warranty.


If your claim is accepted, Phatduds will provide the remedy available under this warranty as described above.


Our voluntary warranty does not limit any remedy that may separately be available to you under the Australian Consumer Law.

your rights under australian consumer law

The following statement is required by Australian Consumer Law and applies in addition to the Phatduds 5-Year Manufacturing Defect Warranty:
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law.


You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage.


You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.


The benefits provided by the Phatduds 5-Year Manufacturing Defect Warranty are in addition to other rights and remedies available to you under Australian law in relation to the goods.


Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law are not limited to the five-year period of this voluntary warranty where the Australian Consumer Law provides you with rights or remedies beyond that period.
