Our outer shipping mailers are lightweight, recyclable, and weather-resistant to keep dead weight and excess waste to an absolute minimum.

RETURNS & WARRANTY

We offer a voluntary 30-day return policy. If you decide your purchase is not right for you, you may return the item within 30 days of delivery for a full refund or store credit.

Items must be unused, unwashed, and returned in their original packaging with all tags and protective sleeves intact.

Our goods come with statutory guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL).

If an item arrives damaged or contains a manufacturing fault, contact hello@esstride.com with photos and your Order ID. We provide a prepaid return label and arrange an immediate replacement or full refund.

05

PRODUCT CARE & PRINCIPLES

For daily maintenance, wipe down hardware surfaces with a soft, dry microfibre cloth to remove fingerprints and dust.

Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, industrial solvents, or abrasive pads, as these can wear down protective surface coatings over time.

Our name combines “ES” (Ease) and “STRIDE” (Forward motion). We believe good design is reductive: removing what isn't needed, refining what remains, and engineering gear that fits naturally into everyday life.
