Product Disclaimer

IAMBIC strives to present its entire range of products and colors with utmost accuracy. Every fit, style, and color is depicted as faithfully as possible. However, IAMBIC cannot ensure an exact match between the colors portrayed on the Website and the actual delivered product.

Since all of our shoes are partially handmade and use natural materials like leather, minor imperfections or variations may occur. Please bear this in mind when making a purchase.

Although we endeavor to maintain sufficient capacity to deliver ordered products listed on our Website, there may be instances where products or services are sold out. If this occurs, our team will promptly inform you via email.

Communications

If we want to use your personal information for newsletter signups or other marketing purposes, we will explicitly seek your permission to do so, and we will provide you with an opportunity to decline providing us this permission.
