Refund Policy
Ruck registrations are refundable for 24 hours after registration closes. After this window, registrations become final and non-refundable because we begin the required process of submitting participant information to the Czech or Austrian Military Associations for production scheduling.
Once your name is submitted for production and verification, these organizations do not offer refunds, and neither can we.
-
When Will My Award Ship
All Czech and Austrian awards are handmade and verified overseas. Once the event window closes and your ruck submission is confirmed, your medal set enters production with the appropriate foreign military association. We pick up completed awards monthly and ship them as soon as they arrive.
Our goal is for most awards to be shipped within 4–8 weeks after event completion.
