Terms of Service

Overview

This website is operated by 1.61 Soft Goods. Throughout the site, the terms “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to 1.61 Soft Goods.

By visiting our website, purchasing products, or using our services, you agree to these Terms of Service.

Please read these terms carefully before using our website or placing an order.


Products

All products from 1.61 Soft Goods are designed and handmade in our Tokyo workshop.

Many products are made to order. Please allow at least 2 weeks (business days) for production before shipment. During busy periods, production times may be longer.

Because each item is handmade:

  • Minor variations in color, texture, stitching, and appearance may occur.
  • Natural leather may contain variations, marks, grain differences, and signs of character.
  • Canvas and fabric materials may vary slightly between production batches.

These characteristics are part of the nature of handmade goods and are not considered defects.

Product photos and descriptions are provided as accurately as possible. However, slight differences may occur depending on your device display, lighting, or material variation.


Product Improvements and Changes

As part of our ongoing product improvement process, 1.61 Soft Goods reserves the right to modify product designs, materials, specifications, colors, or availability without prior notice.

Changes will not affect orders that have already been confirmed unless required for safety, legal, or production reasons.


Orders and Payment

Orders are considered accepted after payment has been successfully received.

Production will not begin until full payment has been received.

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel an order when necessary, including:

  • Incorrect pricing or listing errors
  • Suspected fraudulent activity
  • Product availability issues
  • Shipping restrictions
  • Other circumstances where fulfillment is not possible

If an order is canceled after payment has been received, any eligible refund will be issued through the original payment method.

Custom and Personalized Orders

Custom products are produced specifically for the customer.

Because custom orders are made specifically to customer specifications:

  • They cannot be returned or exchanged for change-of-mind reasons.
