specific matters in any policy or document to which a link access is provided herein.

1. INTRODUCTION

www.adidas.fi (the "Website") is owned by and/or operated by or on behalf of adidas International Trading B.V., Atlas Arena, Africa Building, Hoogoorddreef 9a, 1101 BA Amsterdam ZO, The Netherlands ("adidas/we/us").

If you place an order through this Website, upon confirmation that such order is accepted a sales contract will be executed between you and us, which will be governed by these adidas Terms and Conditions and specifically by the Purchase Terms mentioned below.

adidas AG is the parent company of adidas Group, which includes several affiliated companies; among them, adidas International Trading B.V.

2. PURCHASE TERMS

Please read these Purchase Terms carefully before ordering Products online from the adidas Website. Please, note that these Purchase Terms include the terms contained in those pages to which a link is provided within these Purchase Terms.

2.1 When do these Purchase Terms apply?

These Purchase Terms apply to all offers and contracts relating to the sale and delivery of Products by adidas. In other words, you agree to these Purchase Terms, when you (i) order anything from the Website or (ii) at any web page directly connected to the Website or when you accept an offer from adidas. It is only possible to deviate from these Purchase Terms if agreed in writing by adidas.

2.2 Products

adidas has different types of products. This may include products completely designed by adidas, meaning fully designed and created by adidas (“Standards Products”) – and products that, although designed by adidas, may be customised or modified by you by selecting materials, colours or such other customisation to your liking (“Customised Products”), jointly Products.

Where such service is available you may customise your products by selecting a Standard Product and making it personal. Making it personal means adding the name and number of your favourite player, yourself, your pet or well, basically anything (subject to section 2.11).

In addition, you may also tweak or design your own Mi adidas products by choosing your own colours and in some cases materials. Also within the Mi adidas customisation tool you can add your name, number and badge or flag

2.3 Requirements to conclude a contract with adidas

You have to be 16 years of age or older to buy Products via the Website.

You can only order on the Website if you are a consumer, not a reseller.

You guarantee that the information you provide to adidas in the request or order is accurate and complete.

2.4 How is a contract concluded with you?

2.4.1 Formation of contract related to Standard Products

All information on the Website is an invitation to treat only. In other words, the information is not an offer or binding contract. You agree that your order is an offer to purchase the Products listed in your order.

adidas is entitled to verify an order in advance at all times and/or to refuse to accept an order without providing reasons and with no liability to you or any third parties. If adidas does not confirm acceptance of your order within ten working days, it is deemed to have been refused.

All orders submitted by you are subject to acceptance by adidas. We may choose not to accept your order at our own discretion. Examples of when we may not accept your order are as follows:

If Products are shown on the Website but are not available;
If we are unable to obtain authorisation of your payment;
If shipping restrictions may apply to a Product ;

If Products shown on the Website contain a manifest error such as being incorrectly priced or otherwise incorrectly described.

After your order has been placed, we will send you an order acknowledgement email with your order number and details of the Products you have offered to purchase and details of any delivery services, except when your order relates to Customised Products as indicated in section 2.4.2 below. Acceptance of your order and the formation of a contract of sale of the Standard Products between you and adidas will not take place unless and until either:

you receive an e-mail from adidas which confirms the shipping of the Standard Products from our warehouse;
you received confirmation from the carrier that the Standard Products are ready for you to pick them up, when you have been chosen the option to pick up the Standard Products at an adidas store or carrier office or the carrier has stored the Standard Products at the pickup location; or
you receive a communication from adidas confirming that the Standard Products are ready for you to pick them up at the selected adidas store, in the event you have chosen to collect the Standard Products at an adidas store.

Please note that the option to reserve a Standard Product on the website and to then buy it locally in an adidas store is only possible in selected adidas stores as indicated during the purchasing process on the website. If you buy the reserved product, you are concluding a purchase agreement with the adidas retailer of your choice locally. This means that you can only return the product to the same store you bought it from. Therefore clauses 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 below do not apply because they refer only to the return of Standard Products purchased through the website.

adidas has and fully reserves the right to refuse to accept any order that it knows or reasonably suspects was made with the assistance or involvement of any software, robot, crawler, spider or other automated means or device.

2.4.2 Formation of contract related to Customised Products:

Once you have placed your order for Customised Products (including Mi adidas Products), we will send you an order confirmation email. Acceptance of your order and the formation of a contract of sale of the Customised Products between you and adidas will take place when you receive the order confirmation email from us.

2.5 Retention of title

All Products will remain the property of adidas until you have paid all amounts owing to us in full under any agreement, including the payment of costs, earlier or later deliveries or partial deliveries. You may not sell, dispose of or encumber any Product before full title thereof has passed to you.

2.6 Quality and maintenance of Products

Minor differences in colour and other variations in Products are possible as a result of different image acquisition, display technologies or other technical reasons. adidas is not liable for these variations and deviations.

adidas draws your attention to the washing and maintenance instructions printed on the labels of the Products. adidas is not liable for any damage resulting from incorrect handling of Products, including handling contrary to the instructions.

2.7 Order Cancellation

Because we start to process your order as soon as it is submitted, it is not possible to cancel your order.

2.8 Price

The stated prices include VAT. Prices are quoted in British Pound Sterling (GBP). adidas reserves the right to make price changes prior to an order placed by you.

adidas reserves the right to change, limit or terminate any special offers or discounts at any time.

adidas charge delivery costs. The delivery costs vary for each Product and type of delivery. Where applicable delivery may be “Express delivery”; “Standard delivery”, “Mi adidas delivery” and “Combined delivery” (Standard and Simply Customised Products, no Mi adidas)

For further cost details, please click here, Delivery section on our Website. These costs will, if applicable, be charged separately,itemised and added up with the total amount of the order.

2.9 Methods of payment

Please check the Website for information on available payment methods.

adidas reserves the right to conduct an individual credit check for each order in accordance with the adidas Privacy Statement. Depending on the results of this check, adidas reserves the right to refuse certain methods of payment.

2.10 Invoicing

Where we elect, or are required by applicable law, to issue or make available an invoice, adidas reserves the right to issue or make available electronic invoices and you agree to such form of invoicing.

2.11 Special aspects of Customised Products

To customise your Customised Product and making it personal you can add your own text. You can add your name, select a player and number or be as creative as you like. Please keep it decent. We reserve the right to remove inappropriate language and use of brand names. Also keep in mind that some special characters are not supported by our system.

We kindly request you not to use, upload, submit, copy or otherwise make public any names, words or phrases which fall into any of the categories below:

Consist of or contain the name of a product, service, company, organisation or event which belongs to someone else;
Consist of or contain the name or nickname of a famous person (living or dead);
Infringe or may infringe third party trademarks or other intellectual property rights; and/or
Are threatening, incite violence, are defamatory, obscene, discriminatory, inflammatory, sexually explicit or otherwise unlawful.
adidas reserves the right to reject any customisation, names, words or phrases (or combinations thereof) which fall into any of the above categories or which are otherwise unacceptable to adidas in its sole discretion. This will result in your order being cancelled. Further, adidas will be entitled to claim compensation equal to the value of the Products ordered.

Note that by placing your order for your Customised Products, you:

Represent and guarantee that any names, words or phrases you use, upload, submit, copy or otherwise make public for use on your Customised Product do not fall into any of the above categories;
Agree to indemnify adidas and its affiliated companies and keep adidas and its affiliated companies indemnified against all costs, expenses, damages, losses and liabilities incurred or suffered by adidas or its affiliated companies as a result of the use of any names, words or phrases used, uploaded, submitted, copied or otherwise made public by you (including use on your Customised Product);
Grant to adidas and its affiliated companies a non-exclusive, irrevocable royalty-free, worldwide, fully sub-licensable right to use, reproduce, disclose and modify the names, words or phrases submitted by you for the purposes of fulfilling your order.
Insofar as the order involves Customised Products you will not have any cooling-off period, right of revocation, right of return or right of termination (Section 6:230p under f, subsection 1˚ of the Dutch Civil Code).

2.12 Delivery

adidas will deliver to the address indicated by you within the FI mainland. adidas can only deliver to a home or office address or if you have chosen to collect the Products from an adidas store, at the address of the relevant adidas store. adidas will confirm this to you by an email when informing you that the Products are ready for you to pick up.

Deliveries will be done on business days, not being a public holiday in your country or in the area in which our adidas warehouse is located. Therefore, please, take into account anypublic holidays including any national, provincial and/or local holidays in your country of residence and in the city of Rieste Germany (adidas warehouse address). Note that public holidays may vary per country and per year. We suggest checking all public holidays to get a better estimation of delivery periods.

For detailed information about delivery periods, please check the specifications for the different types of delivery such as “Express delivery”, “Standard delivery”, “Customised Product delivery” and “Mi adidas Customised Product Delivery” by clicking here in the ‘Delivery‘ section of our Website. Note that Delivery periods are indicative and are therefore not regarded as strict deadlines. The mere fact that a delivery period is exceeded does not entitle you to compensation. Notwithstanding this, in case of the unlikely event of delay in an Express delivery, adidas shall at its discretion refund to you the full cost of Express delivery.

Note that Customised Products have different delivery periods. Adding text to a product takes some time. This means that your complete order of Standard Products and Customised Products will take longer to deliver. We would like to stress, however, that Mi adidas Customised Products will be delivered separately from any other Products you may have ordered, and will take approximate 4/6 weeks to be delivered. For detailed information, please verify the delivery period in your country by clicking here.

adidas is entitled, insofar as reasonably possible, to make split deliveries so that you receive your Products as soon as possible. There are no additional costs associated with such split deliveries. However, in the event that you request that adidas delivers in parts, adidas may charge you for extra delivery costs. Each split order shall constitute a separate sales contract. If adidas is late delivering a part or one split order is faulty, that will not entitle you to cancel any other split order.

In the unlikely event that after entering into the sales contract, adidas can no longer deliver your Products and is not responsible for this situation, adidas will be entitled to terminate the sales contract. adidas will, of course, inform you as soon as reasonably practicable and reimburse any payments made.

2.13 Your right of withdrawal

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within fourteen (14) days without giving any reason.

The withdrawal period shall be fourteen days from the date you, or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, have/has taken possession of the goods or (in the case of a contract for multiple goods that you have ordered in the context of a single order and which are being delivered separately) the final delivery of partial goods or (in the case of a contract for the delivery of an item consisting of multiple partial deliveries or items) the last partial delivery or the last item.

To exercise your right of withdrawal you must inform us (adidas International Trading BV, skr. poczt. Nr 315, ul. Targowa 73, Warsaw, 03-700, Poland) submitting a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, a fax or an email) stating your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the sample withdrawal form attached as Appendix 1 to these terms and conditions, however, this is not mandatory. You may also withdraw the offer of contract electronically by filling in the explicit withdrawal declaration on our website at https://www.contactus.adidas.com/EMEA/ContactUs?country=FI&brand=adidas&language=en_GB If you use this option, we shall confirm receipt of order withdrawal immediately via email.

To meet the withdrawal period deadline you will need to notify us about the fact that you are exercising your right of withdrawal before the expiry of the withdrawal period.

Consequences of withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse all payments we received from you, including delivery charges (with the exception of the additional charges arising from the fact that you chose a different method of delivery to the cheapest standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within fourteen (14) days from the date on which the notification of withdrawal of this contract has been received by us. For this repayment we shall use the same method of payment that you used making the original transaction, unless we arrange a different method with you; you will not be charged any fees for such repayments under any circumstances. We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the returned goods, or until you have submitted proof that you have returned the goods, whichever comes earlier.

We shall bear the costs of returning the goods (see 2.15 below).

You must send back or submit the goods immediately, but in any event no later than fourteen (14) days from the date on which you inform us about the withdrawal from this contract (adidas International Trading BV, CDC Rieste, Hildesheimer Strasse 2-10, 49597 Rieste, Germany). The deadline shall be deemed met if you send the goods before the deadline of fourteen (14) days expires.

You only have to pay for any diminished value of goods if this diminished value is due to improper handling on your behalf while ascertaining the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

Exceptions to your right of withdrawal

You do not have a legal right of withdrawal for contracts regarding the:

delivery of goods that are made to your own specifications or which are clearly tailored to your personal needs; and/or
delivery of goods which are not suitable to be returned for health or hygiene reasons and where a seal was removed after delivery.

- End of withdrawal conditions -

A simple (but not mandatory) option to exercise your right of withdrawal is to take one of the following options:

Complete the withdrawal form in Appendix 1 to these Terms and Conditions (or draft another express declaration), attach it to the package in which you are returning the products to us (in correspondence to the contract that you wish to withdraw from) and send the package to us in accordance with the return policies under section 2.15.
Fill in the customer services form at https://www.contactus.adidas.com/EMEA/ContactUs?country=FI&brand=adidas&language=en_GB So that we can process your withdrawal, enter (1) your first name and (2) your last name, (3) select the category "Orders & Delivery", (4) enter “withdrawal” in the subject line and (5) attach a scan of the completed withdrawal form (see Appendix 1 to these General Terms and Conditions) AND/OR enter in the "question" field a clear statement that you wish to withdraw from the contract, for example, by writing "I/We* hereby give notice that I/We withdraw from my/our contract of sale of the following goods: [<< So that we can process the withdrawal, please indicate: (i) the relevant goods, (ii) the order, (iii) the order date and (iv) when you received the goods <<] “If you use this option, we will confirm the receipt of your withdrawal immediately by email.
Fill out the withdrawal form in Appendix 1 to these Terms and Conditions (or draft another express declaration) and send it by post to adidas International Trading BV, skr. poczt. Nr 315, ul. Targowa 73, Warsaw, 03-700, Poland.

2.14 Our voluntary return guarantee in addition to your legal right of withdrawal

adidas grants you the following voluntary return guarantee (“Voluntary Return Guarantee”):

This voluntary return guarantee does not affect your legal rights (especially your legal right of withdrawal in accordance with the above provisions and your statutory warranty rights). This means that in addition to your legal statutory right of withdrawal, adidas also gives you this voluntary return guarantee (in accordance with the following provisions) as a contractual right of return with respect to a standard product ordered. This voluntary return guarantee does not affect your statutory rights in any way.

If you are not fully satisfied with your Standard Product, you have the right (in addition to and notwithstanding your statutory right of withdrawal described above) to withdraw from the sales contract. In other words, you have the right to return the Standard Product as described below, and we shall ensure that you obtain a refund (as outlined below). Simply follow the guidelines explained in the following section:

Subject to the provisions of these Terms and Conditions, you may return the Standard Product received within thirty (30) calendar days (“Return Period”) from the day you receive the Standard Product, without specifying any reasons. In order to meet the deadline, you must return the standard product to us before the deadline expires and as described below in the return guidelines under Section 2.15 of these General Terms and Conditions. Please note that the Voluntary Return Period does not apply to Standard Products that are considered to be hype Products. Hype Products include but are not limited to Yeezy. In the process of ordering these hype Products we communicate to you that the Withdrawal Period of 14 days applies.

If the return arrives after the deadline has expired or the Standard Product has been used or damaged beyond normal inspection use, or is not returned in its original packaging, adidas shall reserve the right to reject the return and shall not give any compensation under this Voluntary Return Guarantee. Returns of clothing items can only be accepted if the original label has not been removed (all the aforementioned do not affect your legal statutory rights as described above, in particular your warranty rights and your right of withdrawal.)

When returning the Standard Product, please follow the instructions on your packing slip (see the return guidelines under section 2.15 of these purchase conditions). All return packages must be shipped using the return label from the carrier or using some other form of traceable shipment.

The return of Standard Products is at adidas’ risk and at adidas’ expense as long as these are reasonable expenses and as long as such returns are made in accordance with section 2.15. Returns not made in accordance with section 2.15 shall be at your own risk and at your expense. The Standard Products, unused, complete and in their original packaging, as far as reasonably possible, must be returned to:

Adidas International Trading B.V.

CDC Rieste

Hildesheimer Strasse 2-10

49597 Rieste

Germany

For all valid returns made in accordance with these Purchase Terms & Conditions, adidas shall reimburse the purchase price and the delivery costs (in case of returned orders being complete) received from you within fourteen (14) days after receipt of the Standard Product.

The length of time your return is in transit is beyond our control, despite us processing your return immediately upon receipt. A returns processing period of at least fourteen (14) days - to receive and to process your return - must therefore be allowed. Although adidas will normally refund the money within approximately two (2) days after processing a return, it may take additional time for a bank or credit card company to process a refund and for the refund to reach an account. We shall notify you via email once we have received and processed the returned Standard Product(s). We shall refund the total value of the Standard Product(s). Refunds will be made using the same type of payment as was used making the original purchase.

Please note that special provisions apply for Customised Products as these have been designed specifically for you. This means that (without this affecting your statutory rights) we cannot accept returns of these under the Voluntary Returns Guarantee, unless they have manufacturing defects. If you have questions regarding the return of customised products that were purchased from the website, please contact us on 0800-915445 or send an email to our Customer Services Team. For questions regarding customised products that you purchased in one of our shops, please call the store where you bought the product from directly. The phone number can be found on your sales receipt.

2.15 Return instructions for Standard Products:

To return a Standard Product please follow the instructions as set out in the Return section of our FAQ’s on our Website.

2.16 Return related to Customised Products

As explained above, since Customised Products (including Mi adidas products) are created just for you, we do not accept returns of Customised Products except for manufacturing defects. If your Customised Product has a defect please contact us for return instructions at 0800-915445* or e-mail our Customer Service team.

2.17 Exchange policy

adidas does not exchange Products. If you wish to exchange a Product, you will need to return your purchase for refund and place a new order. It is only possible to get a refund on returns when the return is in line with our return policy.

2.18 Damaged or defective Products

For adidas, quality is paramount. We thoroughly test all our Products in real-life conditions to ensure they are fully capable of standing up to the uses for which they were designed. It is extremely rare for our Products to be damaged or defective. adidas has a legal obligation to make sure that our Products are conform to the sales contract.

Returned Products are inspected by the adidas Quality Assurance Department and refunded if the damage is the result of a manufacturing defect or deviation from factory specifications. We undertake to fully refund the cost of any defective Products.

If the problem was caused by reasons other than materials quality or assembly process, the original product is returned to you. We do not refund Products:

Obtained from a source other than the Website
Damaged by abuse or negligence (exposure to chemicals, caustic substances, open flame, high heat, sharp object, etc.)
Damaged by misuse or activities other than the intended purpose (use of running shoes for court sports or hiking footwear as work boots, etc.)

Please note the life expectancy of any adidas Product depends on the individual using the Product, the conditions of use, and the characteristic wear patterns of the user. Our Products damaged by normal wear and tear or that have exceeded the reasonable lifespan of the Product are not replaced.

Our Customer Service team is available to assist you. Please don't hesitate to contact us with your questions and comments. Call us at 0800-915445* or e-mail us.
