Exchanges & Returns
Would you like to exchange your item for a different size, colour, or style?
Unfortunately, we do not yet offer an exchange service outside of the Netherlands. If you would like to receive another colour or size, we recommend returning the initial order. In the meantime, you can place a new order.
If you’d like to return your ordered items, you can do so within 14 days after delivery. Returns are processed within five business days. When your return is processed you will receive an e-mail confirming your refund.
Please note: we only take items in return that are unused, unworn, unwashed, undamaged and in original condition with attached label(s). In case of a return, please complete the return form and add it to the package.
