Affiliate disclosure

Boots & Barbells is funded by affiliate commissions. When a guide links to a retailer and you buy something through that link, the retailer pays us a small percentage. You pay exactly the same price either way.

Our rules

• Recommendations are decided first; affiliate links are added after. A product is never ranked higher because it pays more.
• Every guide lists real downsides and names who should not buy each product.
• We accept no free products, sponsorships, or paid placements.
• Affiliate links are marked with rel="sponsored" and each guide with affiliate links carries a disclosure notice at the top.

This disclosure exists because EU consumer-protection rules and affiliate program terms require it — and because you deserve to know how the site you're reading pays its bills. Questions? Contact us.
