Welcome to Black Mercante. These Terms of Service govern your use of the Black Mercante website and your purchase of products from us.

By accessing our website or purchasing a product from Black Mercante, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use our website or purchase our products.

1. About Black Mercante

Black Mercante is an independent clothing and art brand specializing in original graphic garments, vintage-inspired apparel, reconstructed pieces, and limited or one-of-one releases.

Our products may include garments that have been intentionally distressed, washed, faded, altered, printed, or otherwise individually finished.

Because of the nature of these products, no two pieces may be exactly alike.

2. Product Descriptions

We make every effort to accurately photograph and describe our products.

However, colors may appear differently depending on your device or screen settings. Due to the handmade, vintage, distressed, or individually finished nature of certain Black Mercante pieces, variations in color, fading, distressing, printing, texture, garment shape, placement of graphics, and signs of wear may occur.

These characteristics may be intentional and are considered part of the design.

For one-of-one pieces, the item pictured is generally the exact item you will receive unless otherwise stated.

3. Pricing

All prices are displayed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated.

Black Mercante reserves the right to change product prices at any time without prior notice. Price changes will not affect orders that have already been accepted and paid for.

We reserve the right to correct pricing, product descriptions, or other errors on the website.

4. Orders

Placing an order does not necessarily guarantee acceptance.

Black Mercante reserves the right to cancel or refuse an order for reasons including, but not limited to, the item being unavailable, an apparent pricing or listing error, suspected fraudulent activity, incorrect customer information, shipping restrictions, or technical errors.

If we cancel an order after payment has been received, the amount paid for the canceled order will be refunded to the original payment method.

5. One-of-One & Limited Products

Many Black Mercante pieces are produced in extremely limited quantities or as one-of-one garments.

Once a one-of-one item is sold, it may not be reproduced.

Product availability is subject to change without notice.

6. Intellectual Property
