Our Philosophy on Returns

First and foremost, we want you to be happy with your purchase.
You do not need a Return Authorization to exchange or return any item assuming it meets the guidelines below. Just ship it back to us, and we will take care of the rest.

We find that the vast majority of our customers do not elect to return or exchange their items, so we have elected to pass along the most competitive prices and shipping rates we can by not paying for return shipping on returns and exchanges.

Exchanges

If you would prefer a different product, size, or style ~ please ship the item back to us at the address below and include a note letting us know what you would like in exchange. Items being sent back to us can be shipped via UPS, FedEx, or USPS Priority Mail, and it’s suggested you keep your tracking number handy until you know we’ve received the item.

If you instead elect to place a new order for the item, to be processed as quickly as possible, ship the first item back and your refund will be handled immediately.

Returns

All items should be returned, via a trackable service, to the address below, in saleable condition. Upon receipt, refund will be applied to the original form of payment. Please allow 10-14 business days for the full processing of your return.

Please send all returns or exchanges, with the original packing slip and a reason for return/exchange, to:
