Hikawa Warranty Policy FAQ

Every Hikawa item is covered with a 6 month warranty beginning the date the phone case is received by the purchaser, not the shipment date.

Warranty is automatically activated, no action on part of customer is required.

The Hikawa team reserves the right to assess each claim to determine eligibility.

The Hikawa team has written the warranty policies with customer first fairness and sustainability in mind.

This warranty covers:

  • Manufacturing defects. Flaws that exist because of how the product was made, not how it was used.
  • Shipping Damage. Product arrives cracked, crushed, or otherwise damaged in transit, it's covered as long as you tell us within 10 days of delivery and send photos of the item and the packaging. packaging photos matter; they're often what let us file with the carrier and get you a fast resolution without a back-and-forth.
  • Other issues that may be considered on a case by case basis by the Hikawa Team. Seams that split without stress, silicone that peels or delaminates on its own, magsafe magnets that fail to hold, hardware that fails under normal use.
  • Loss. If product doesn't arrive at all rather than arriving damaged, that's handled under our shipping/lost-package process, not this warranty.

The following products are covered under this limited 1-year warranty:

  • Handmade phone cases
  • Silicone ready-to-ship phone cases
  • Hikawa Accessories
  • Hikawa MagSafe Accessories

A portion of Hikawa goods are handmade in small batches and may include slight inconsistencies or irregularities. These variations are inherent to the handmade process and are not considered defects.

Products not eligible:

  • damage from unauthorized repairs, alterations, or third-party modifications
  • damage from exposure to heat, chemicals, solvents, or cleaning products not intended for the material
  • natural material variation — handmade and mold-made pieces are cast in small batches. slight differences in color, texture, or finish between units are part of the process, not a defect
  • items purchased secondhand or outside of authorized Bailey Hikawa channels
  • Archival / Final Sale products with disclosed defects at time of sale. (cosmetic dust, bubbles, or texture inherent to the mold-made process)

We strive to offer fair and transparent customer service. These policies are created with fairness, customer first kindness, and the sustainability of our business in mind.
