You must be careful with the word "lifetime warranty" A certain outdoor gear company sells lifetime socks, shoelaces and at one time lifetime work pants. These items are pricey for what they are but hey, you get new ones if you wear them out....right? Years ago I was looking for a rugged pair of pants and I spent the cash for the "lifetime" work pants. The tags said "lifetime" and I asked an employee what that meant and they said "wear them out and we will give you a new one, just like the socks".
Years later they were really ragged and I set out to get them replaced, took the receipt AND the tags I had saved with me. I was told that they were not lifetime, it was just a descriptor used on the tag to depict quality. I thought this was misleading because the "lifetime" socks bear the same wording and style as the pants and I know people gat the socks replaced without argument.
Be careful of the word "lifetime", it may not mean what you think.
