Warranty & Returns
WARRANTY
Icetrek takes pride in producing the strongest and most functional polar expedition equipment in the world. Each product is designed and tested by professional polar adventurers. However we are also acutely aware of the harshness of the polar environment and the varying abilities of users, both of which impact on the life of our products. As such we offer the following warranty on our products.
