Repairs and Warranty Policy: 

For all warranty issues and questions, please email us at theswellmade@gmail.com with pictures of the items that are experiencing the warranty issues with a description of what happened to the items. We have a 2-year warranty policy in which you can receive free repairs if you purchased your wetsuit within 2 years at the time of the repair request. After 2 years, we can still repair your wetsuit but you will have to pay for the costs of the repair plus labor fees.  

Does your wetsuit have a rip or tear? Broken zipper? Knees blown out? Please contact us and we will email you back with the next steps. We want to make sure that our community is always able to get into the water to pursue their passion with functionally superior gear. We also offer a 2-year limited warranty from the date of purchase on manufacturing defects for all our wetsuits with proof of purchase. As individual consumers, the single best thing we can do for the planet is to keep our stuff in use longer. Repairing your wetsuit is highly encouraged and will not void our 2-year warranty if qualified. NOT COVERED: Repairs or alterations to any area of the product done or attempted by anyone other than an authorized Swellmade repair facility - Damage from sunlight or chlorine - Damage done outside of normal recreational use.

Please fill out the Matuse repair/warranty online form and someone will reach out to you within 7 days with further information on how to process your repair/warranty request. Here's the link: https://www.matuse.com/pages/repair-warranty-program.
