Returns & Cancellation Policy

Cancellation:
  You may cancel your order for a full refund before it has been prepared for shipment at warehouse.  You may email us at info@borealdesign.com to see if your order can still be cancelled.  After an order has been packaged and scheduled for pick up with freight company you will no longer be able to cancel your order.  At this point you will have to return your order once you receive it. 

Returns: 
  1. We accept returns for a period of 15 days from purchase (both in-store and online purchases).
  2. In-person returns can be done at the Boutique 3600 1st Street, suite 30, St-Hubert, Quebec, Canada, J3Y8Y5
  3. Items must be in a new condition, not show any use or wear, must have the retail packaging intact, and must be returned with all originally included parts and accessories, along with sales receipt.
  4. Once your returned item is received and inspected by our team, your refund will be processed (less any original shipping fees) and minus a 20% restocking fee. If the product is found to be in poor condition, or if any originally included parts or accessories are missing, the amount of your refund will be reduced.
  5. Customers are responsible for shipping fees to send the item back to us.
  6. BorealDesign is not responsible for any shipping fees, nor refund of shipping fees, associated with a customer refusing delivery of their kayak order. It is the customer's sole responsibility to ensure they or the person they purchased the kayak for are there at the shipped-to-address to receive the delivery from the shipping carrier,  or have someone authorized to accept delivery on behalf of the customer according to shipping carrier policy. If a kayak delivery is refused by the customer and is returned to BorealDesign, we have the right to charge the customer another shipping fee to re-ship the kayak.
  7. We reserve the right to refuse/cancel any order for whatever reason. You will then be refunded immediately.
