Return Policy

Our policy lasts 7 days from receipt of goods. If 7 days have gone by since your purchase, we can't offer you a refund or exchange. Unfortunately, we cannot accept returns for printed, embroidery items and items that are not faulty or damaged for instance if you change your mind or simply do not like the design. For hygienic reasons Face mask items cannot be returned or exchanged. 

By placing the order, you accept this condition and are legally bound by it.

We DO NOT:

• Accept returns for goods that are not faulty
• Accept returns simply because you changed your mind
• Accept returns simply because the items DID NOT FIT
• Accept returns for any decorated items
• Our return policy is not negotiable so please bear this in mind before placing an order

To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging. In accordance with the ACCC we cannot offer a refund unless the product is faulty or damaged. (You can ask a business for your preference of a free repair, replacement or refund, but you are not always entitled to one. For example, the consumer guarantees do not apply if you got what you asked for but simply changed your mind, found it cheaper somewhere else, decided you did not like the purchase or had no use for it.)

In the event a return is authorised for a non-faulty item we do not refund any postage costs to and from you, we also reserve the right to charge a re-stocking fee of $20.00 or 30% of order value excluding shipping costs (whichever is greater).

All refunds are made onto the original payment method only. We do not accept any returns due to garment shrinkage, all of our garments are supplied by local Australian companies adhering to AU/NZ standards and shrinkage of the garments are generally due to the garments care instruction not being followed properly and washing them at higher temperatures than recommended, this is not deemed as a garment defect and we are not in a position to refund the purchase.
