The following variables are considered to be manufacturing defects and are covered under the Fjällräven Limited Lifetime Warranty:
- Split seams
- Broken buttons/snaps

- Broken buckles
If your garment has a manufacturing defect, please Submit a Request below to contact Customer Service. The average turnaround time for a repair is approximately five weeks. To adhere to government regulations, all items are required to be cleaned prior to being returned for repair.
Repairs
Repairs are done to ensure the product remains in working condition. Some repairs can be visible due to the repair type. This can include patches, stitches, reinforcements and more. We do our best to match the colors of items, however, there can be variances in colors due to spare part availability. Please note that some items can have limitations on how an item is repaired due to the material and/or construction of the garment.
