Important to note: Please note that orders returned online will be issued a full refund only. If you'd like to exchange online, please place a new order and return your existing item for a refund. 

Please note for hygiene reasons, we are unable to offer returns or exchanges for the below items unless there is a genuine manufacturing fault for which we will offer a full refund online.

3 CONDITIONS FOR A SUCCESSFUL RETURN

Shoes must be returned in their original, undamaged shoebox.  Do not attach return labels directly to the shoebox. The shoebox must be protected in a satchel or packaging. Please use either the original postage bag or an inside-out plastic shopping bag to protect the shoe box during transit.*
*We reserve the right to reject any returns that do not meet these requirements.

RETURN OPTIONS

• Online purchases using credit/debit cards may be refunded or exchanged in-store. Please ensure you have your proof of purchase for our team member to assist you.
• Online purchases using PayPal can only be returned online for a full refund. PayPal orders cannot be refunded in-store. As PayPal is a heavily encrypted, secure payment method, our store systems are unable to process PayPal refunds. Please see our article on PayPal returns for more information.

Cost of returns

The returns shipping fee is $10 paid for in the Returns Portal.

Refunds

Once you have dropped your parcel off at the Post Office, please allow some time for your item to reach our warehouse. Please hold onto your Australia Post return tracking number so you can track your order and see when it reaches us.

Upon receipt, a returned item will be processed by our returns warehouse within 2-3 business days.

Once processed, the refund will show in your account within 2-5 business days, depending on your financial institution.

Due to the increased volume over sale periods, please allow an additional 1-2 business days for refund processing.

Faulty items

If you believe you have received a faulty item, please do not submit a return as our returns warehouse does not process faulty assessments.

If you believe your online purchase arrived with a manufacturing fault, or you received something different to your original order, we'll be happy to cover the cost of the return.

If this is the case, please refer to our Online Faulty Assessment process here.
