Terms of service
Last updated: 30 July 2026
Welcome to Hanzo. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Hanzo website, including all purchases made through our online store.
By accessing this website or placing an order, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with these Terms, you should not use this website.
These Terms should be read together with our Privacy Policy, Shipping Policy, Refund Policy, Sourcing Policy and Trade Compliance Policy, all of which form part of the terms governing your use of this website.
1. About Hanzo
This website is operated by Hanzo Apparel Ltd., a company incorporated in England and Wales and registered with Companies House.
Throughout these Terms, "Hanzo", "we", "our" and "us" refer to Hanzo Apparel Ltd.
If you have any questions regarding these Terms, please contact us using the contact details provided on this website.
2. Eligibility
By placing an order, you confirm that:
- you are legally capable of entering into a binding contract;
- all information you provide is accurate and complete;
- you are authorised to use the chosen payment method;
- you will comply with all applicable laws relating to your purchase.
3. Our Products
Hanzo specialises in genuine pre-owned and vintage fur garments sourced from Japan.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, all products offered for sale are unique, one-of-a-kind items.
Because our products are vintage or pre-owned:
- no two items are identical;
- minor signs of previous ownership consistent with age may be present;
- professionally replaced linings or repairs may exist on vintage garments;
- colours may vary slightly depending upon individual monitor or mobile device settings.
Where significant wear, repairs or defects are known to us, they will be disclosed within the product description.
Product photographs form part of the product description and are intended to represent the item as accurately as reasonably possible.
4. Pricing
All prices displayed on this website are shown in the stated currency.
Prices may change without prior notice.
The price applicable to your purchase will be the price displayed at the time your order is submitted.
Although every effort is made to ensure pricing accuracy, errors may occasionally occur. Where a genuine pricing error has occurred, Hanzo reserves the right to cancel the order and issue a full refund.
5. Orders
Submission of an order does not automatically create a binding contract.
Orders become accepted only when:
- payment has been successfully authorised; and
- Hanzo confirms acceptance of the order.
We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any order where reasonably necessary, including but not limited to situations involving:
- suspected fraud;
- suspected unauthorised payment;
- pricing errors;
- inventory errors;
- legal or regulatory restrictions;
- carrier restrictions;
- sanctions compliance;
- customs compliance;
- suspected abuse of our services.
Where payment has already been received for an order that cannot be fulfilled, a full refund will be issued using the original payment method.
6. Payment
Payments are processed through authorised payment service providers.
Hanzo does not store customers' full payment card information.
Orders will only be processed following successful payment authorisation.
If a payment provider declines or reverses a transaction, Hanzo reserves the right to suspend or cancel the associated order until the matter has been resolved.
7. International Orders
Hanzo sells internationally.
Customers are responsible for ensuring that the purchase and importation of products into their jurisdiction is lawful.
Prior to dispatch, Hanzo conducts its own compliance review to determine whether an order can be exported and shipped in accordance with applicable laws and carrier requirements.
If Hanzo determines that an order cannot be legally exported or imported, we reserve the right to cancel the order before dispatch and provide a full refund.
Customers remain responsible for any customs duties, VAT, GST, import taxes or customs clearance fees imposed by the destination country unless otherwise stated during checkout.
Further information can be found in our Shipping Policy and Trade Compliance Policy.
8. Product Compliance
Hanzo is committed to responsible international trade.
We do not knowingly sell products that violate applicable wildlife trade legislation, sanctions regulations or customs requirements.
Every product is individually reviewed before purchase and before sale in accordance with our Sourcing Policy.
If any uncertainty exists regarding legality, authenticity, species identification or regulatory compliance, Hanzo will not offer the item for sale.
9. Intellectual Property

The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
