Returns, Warranty & FAQs

Orders come through our system and go directly to our warehouse. Once check out is complete we can not guarantee that we will be able to update your order. We will try our best, but any charges incurred from the need to redirect an order, or return to sender to re-deliver as a result of an incorrect address used at checkout, will be borne by the customer.

We completely get it, we change our minds too! While we wish could, unfortunately once an order is placed, it goes directly through to our warehouse and we are no longer able to alter or cancel it. We do hope to have a cancellation window one day in the future. There may be a rare occasion when we can locate and hold an order once processed so we do encourage you to reach out, but please be aware, this is not always possible.

Should the item(s) not work out, make sure to exchange for a preferred style or return for a refund.

We want to speak to you too! Contact us with any questions, concerns, or feedback. We will be sure to get back to you within 48 hours. However, please note that inquiries sent on Fridays will receive a reply the following Monday, but possibly sooner. You can also call us on
