Product Warranty

The riobol one-year limited warranty

Every riobol is built to train hard. We stand behind our craftsmanship.

RIOBOL llc ("RIOBOL") warrants to the original purchaser that the riobol will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one (1) year from the date of original purchase ("Warranty Period"). This is a limited warranty. It covers manufacturing defects only.

What this warranty covers

If your riobol fails due to a defect in materials or workmanship during the Warranty Period, RIOBOL will replace the defective riobol with the same or a comparable product. Replacement is the sole remedy available under this warranty. RIOBOL provides one (1) replacement per original purchase during the Warranty Period. If the cost of return shipping would be unreasonable relative to the product value, RIOBOL may, at its sole discretion, waive the return requirement.

What this warranty does not cover

This warranty does not cover:

Normal wear and tear, including surface scuffing, texture changes, discoloration, punctures, holes or grip reduction resulting from regular training use

Damage caused by overinflation, underinflation, or inflation outside the pressure range specified on the product or packaging

Damage caused by misuse, abuse, neglect, accident, or use inconsistent with the product's intended purpose as a soccer training ball

Damage caused by exposure to extreme heat, sharp objects, or inappropriate playing surfaces

Cosmetic damage that does not affect the riobol's performance as a training tool

Any riobol that has been modified or repaired by anyone other than RIOBOL

How to make a warranty claim

Contact us at contact@riobol.com within the Warranty Period with: (1) your original order number or proof of purchase, and (2) a brief description and photograph of the defect. We will respond within five (5) business days. We may ask you to return the defective riobol before a replacement is sent. Return shipping for warranty claims is the responsibility of the purchaser.

Who this warranty applies to

This warranty is available to the original purchaser only and is non-transferable. It does not extend to subsequent owners.

Limitation of implied warranties

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE ONE-YEAR WARRANTY PERIOD. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.

Limitation of liability

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, RIOBOL'S LIABILITY UNDER THIS WARRANTY IS LIMITED TO REPLACEMENT OF THE DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. RIOBOL SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OR PERFORMANCE OF THE RIOBOL. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not apply to you.

Your additional rights

This warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may also have other rights that vary by state.

Returns & Exchanges

RIOBOL accepts returns on riobols that are unused, uninflated, and in original packaging within 30 days of the date of delivery.. To initiate a return, email contact@riobol.com with your order number and reason for return. We will provide return instructions.

Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer. Once we receive and inspect the returned item, we will issue a refund to your original payment method within five (5) business days of receiving and inspecting the returned item. Processing time by your bank or payment provider may add additional days before the credit appears..

We do not accept returns on riobols that have been inflated, used for training, or show signs of use. A defective riobol within the Warranty Period should be handled through our warranty process above, not as a return.

We do not offer exchanges. If you would like a different product, return the original for a refund and place a new order.
