Refund policy
At Shortwear, we want customers to shop with confidence. This Return & Refund Policy explains when returns may be accepted, how to request a return, who is responsible for return shipping, how refunds are handled, and what to do if an item arrives damaged, defective, or incorrect.
1. Return Window
Return requests must be submitted within 30 days of delivery, unless a longer period is required by applicable law or is clearly stated on our website.
Website: shortwear.shop
2. Eligibility for Returns
To be eligible for a return, the item should:
- Be unworn, unused, and in its original condition
- Have original tags attached where applicable
- Include the original packaging where applicable
- Be free from stains, odors, washing, alterations, or other signs of wear
- Include any accessories or other items originally supplied with the product
- Be accompanied by proof of purchase, such as your order number, confirmation email, or receipt
We may request photographs or other information before approving a return.
3. Non-Returnable Items
Returns or refunds may be declined for items that are not eligible, including, where applicable:
- Worn, washed, damaged, altered, or modified clothing where the issue was not caused by Shortwear
- Items with removed tags where tags were originally attached
- Items showing signs of use, stains, odors, or improper care
- Items returned after the applicable return period
- Personalized or custom-made products
- Gift cards
- Final-sale products where clearly marked and permitted by law
- Items that cannot reasonably be returned for health or hygiene reasons once the applicable packaging or hygiene protection has been removed, where permitted by law
- Any product clearly identified as non-returnable where permitted by applicable law
This section does not limit any mandatory consumer rights you may have under applicable law.
4. How to Request a Return
To request a return, contact our customer support team at:
Email: support@shortwear.shop
Please include:
- Your full name
- Order number
- Item you wish to return
- Reason for the return
- Relevant photographs where necessary
If your return is approved, we will provide return instructions.
Please do not send an item back before receiving return authorization from Shortwear.
5. Return Shipping Costs
Unless the item is defective, damaged, incorrect, or applicable law requires otherwise, customers are generally responsible for return shipping costs.
For customer-remorse returns, such as ordering the wrong size or color, selecting the wrong product, or changing your mind, return shipping costs may be the customer's responsibility.
If Shortwear confirms that an item was delivered damaged, defective, or incorrect, we will provide an appropriate solution based on the circumstances and applicable law.
We recommend using a trackable shipping service when returning an item.
Shortwear does not charge a restocking fee for approved returns.
6. Exchanges
We do not currently offer direct exchanges.
If you would like a different product, color, size, or style, please contact us first. If your original item is eligible for return, you may return it under this policy and place a separate new order.
7. Damaged, Defective, or Incorrect Items
If you receive an item that is damaged, defective, or different from what you ordered, please contact us as soon as possible at:
Email: support@shortwear.shop
Please provide:
- Your order number
- A description of the problem
- Clear photographs of the item
- Photographs of the packaging where relevant
Once the issue has been reviewed and confirmed, an appropriate remedy may include:
- Replacement
- Refund
- Another remedy required under applicable law
Please keep the item and packaging until we advise you how to proceed.
8. Refunds
Once an approved return is received and inspected, we will notify you of the outcome.
If the refund is approved, it will generally be processed within 5–10 business days after approval.
Because Shortwear offers Cash on Delivery (COD) for eligible orders, COD refunds cannot automatically be returned to an original card payment method in the same way as an online card payment.
Where a COD refund is approved, our customer support team will contact you regarding the available refund method and any information reasonably required to complete the refund.
Processing times may vary depending on the refund method used.
9. Cash on Delivery Returns
For Cash on Delivery orders:
- A return must still meet the eligibility requirements in this policy.
- Refusing a parcel at the door does not automatically guarantee a refund or approved return.
- Customers should contact Shortwear first if they wish to cancel or return an order.
- Repeated refusal of confirmed COD orders may affect eligibility for future COD orders.
If payment has already been made to the courier and a return is later approved, the refund will be handled according to the approved refund method communicated by our customer support team.
10. Order Cancellations
If you need to cancel an order, please contact us as soon as possible:
Email: support@shortwear.shop
If the order has not yet been processed or dispatched, we will make reasonable efforts to cancel it.
If the order has already been processed or shipped, cancellation may no longer be possible. In that case, the return process may apply after delivery, subject to this policy.
Please also review our separate Cancellation Policy for additional information.
11. Return Address
Please contact us before sending any item back.
If your return is approved and you are instructed to return the item to our business address, use:
Shortwear
29212 Inverness Dr
Bay Village, CA 44140
United States
Please do not send unauthorized returns to this address.
12. Missing Return Packages
Shortwear is not responsible for return parcels lost in transit where the return shipping was arranged by the customer, except where otherwise required by applicable law.
For this reason, we recommend:
- Using a trackable shipping service
- Keeping your shipping receipt
- Retaining the tracking number until your return has been completed
13. Refund Exceptions
Original shipping costs or other charges may not be refundable where permitted by applicable law, unless the return results from a damaged, defective, incorrect, or otherwise eligible product issue.
Any mandatory consumer rights that apply to your order remain unaffected.
