What's the Warranty on my Gator Case?

Gator Cases is dedicated to producing the highest quality cases, bags, and accessories. We back up that commitment with a Limited Lifetime Warranty on any manufacturing defects in material and workmanship.

This warranty applies to the original owner and requires you to present a copy of your proof of purchase at the time of the claim. Our warranty entitles the original owner a replacement of the product, or replacement with a comparable product of similar value and condition at our discretion, for the lifetime of the product.

This warranty is limited to Gator Cases products only and excludes loss of personal property, loss of use, accidental damage, misuse, or normal wear and tear. In the event of a warranty claim, Gator Cases is not responsible for shipping costs.
