International Orders
Import duties, taxes and fees are not included in the product price or shipping and handling cost; those costs will be collected by your local customs office upon delivery in certain countries and the payment of these are the sole responsibility of the mail recipient. Consult your local customs office for more information about any applicable fees.
International orders typically arrive in 1-4 weeks. However, occasionally orders may be delayed by customs and can take up to 8 weeks to be delivered. If you have not received your order within 8 weeks, please contact us.

If you are not 100% satisfied with your purchase, change of mind returns are accepted within 30 days of the order dispatch date. Simply contact us to request a return. All items must be received in ‘as new’ condition – unwashed, unworn and unmodified in any way, including all tags attached and in its original packaging.
If you have received a faulty product, it may be replaced or refunded following evaluation from our Merchandise Team. Simply contact us within 60 days of the order dispatch date to request a return. Faulty products are defined as items received as damaged or which develop a manufacturing fault. Items that are damaged through use or general wear and tear are not classified as faulty.
We reserve the right to refuse any return which does not adhere to the above conditions.
Once approved for return, we will credit the refund for the products returned via your original method of payment minus the delivery fees. Unless we have made a mistake with your order, return postage is at your own expense.

You must ensure that the products are returned to us within 30 days of the date we issue you with an RMA number. Returns outside of this time frame may be refused at our discretion, or will only entitle you to a store credit.
All returns are the responsibility of the buyer until the parcel is received by us. We recommend a tracked delivery service such as Registered Post or any equivalent service. While we endeavour to process returns as quickly as possible, please allow up to 5 days for your return to be processed by us after receipt. Financial institutions may require additional time to process the refund before it is reflected in your account.
