Returns and Exchanges
LET’S REDUCE OUR IMPACT ON THE PLANET BY CUTTING DOWN UNNECESSARY PARCELS
There is a reason behind our decision not to offer free returns or free exchanges. “Try before you buy” has become a norm in the world of fashion. A norm that is also often misused. According to the newspaper The Independent, 17% of customers aged 35 – 44 years have admitted to making a purchase only to take an Instagram photo and then return the goods back to the store. Free returns generate large volumes of unnecessary parcels being sent there and back, which in turn increases CO2 emissions, wasted packaging materials (shipping boxes, product re-packaging), and product overstocking. We are aware that online shopping may be a bit more complex in choosing the right fit and size and that is why we have detailed sizing charts and fit descriptions for each product. Our customer service team is also ready to help you with making the right choice. Should you still choose a product that does not fit you as you wish, worry not, we will gladly exchange the products. We believe that together, we can do maximum to minimize our impact on our beautiful planet, which, in addition to everything else, gives us the opportunity to enjoy amazing, snowy winters.
YOU DON’T WANT TO WEAR WORN UNDERWEAR
There are things you don’t lend to your friends and one of them is definitely underwear. Even legislature has that covered by a law § 1837 section g), which states that due to hygienic reasons, it is not possible to return certain products that were taken out of the original packaging and underwear is in that category. Therefore, please make sure to check the sizing charts in detail to find your right size, or contact our customer service if you need further help.
