Shipping and Returns Policy
Shipping
We charge actual shipping costs to ship to Hawaii, Alaska, and APO/FPO addresses. We will contact you with a shipping quote before we proceed with your order. Unfortunately these shipping costs are not automatically calculated when you check out. After we contact you, your order will not be processed until we hear back from you and you confirm shipping charges.
We also charge actual shipping costs to ship internationally. We will contact you with a shipping quote before we proceed with your order. It is not automatically calculated when you check out. Additional customs and duties may apply depending on country; this is the buyer’s responsibility. Shipping FedEx International takes 3-5 days in shipping; custom delays may occur and are out of our control.
If you would like to expedite your shipping method, we charge $20 for FedEx 2nd Day Air within the continental US ($40 for skis). If you would like to ship overnight, please email us at bentgate@bentgate.com, call us at 303-271-9382, or toll free at 1-877-236-8428. Our website does not automatically calculate overnight shipping rates.
Most orders are shipped FedEx Ground. This requires a physical address, and cannot be delivered to PO Boxes. To ship USPS, we charge actual shipping costs. Shipping via FedEx Ground generally takes 3-5 days.
Note that the international shipping costs for inexpensive items are often prohibitively expensive. Please contact us at bentgate@bentgate.com or by phone at 303-271-9382 if you have any questions.
There are certain brands we cannot ship outside North America, this includes but may not be limited to: Arc’teryx, La Sportiva, and Hilleberg.

Items must be in new condition with original packaging. Please only wear footwear indoors while deciding if it will work for you. If you have any questions, please call 877-BENT-GATE or email bentgate@bentgate.com. Our 30 day return policy gives you time to decide if the product is right for you, while enabling us to sell the item in season if you decide it isn't just what you're looking for.

With all products, please return the original packaging (especially shoes & boot boxes) and enclose it inside a shipping envelope or box (don't just stick postage on the original box as it's not saleable that way).
