You can return an item within 30 days if you : 

  • Changed your mind

All return claims for the reasons listed above must be made within 30 days of receiving your product. If you contact us after this period, our customer service team will review your claim on a case-by-case basis.

Items must be returned in perfect, saleable condition with all tags, labels, and packaging intact. Suitcases must include their original box if provided.

You are responsible for covering the return shipping costs. Please ensure you use Registered Post to avoid any possibility of an item being lost.

Refunds : 
Once your return is processed, you’ll receive a product refund to your original payment method. Note that If you received free shipping on your order, $9.90 will be deducted to cover our original shipping cost.

If we receive an item that is not in perfect resale condition, a restocking fee will apply or the item will be returned to you.

  • Significantly different from what was described
  • Not functioning as intended
  • In breach of the manufacturer's warranty or consumer guarantees

We do not accept returns on these highly personal or food items to protect our customers. This policy ensures you are purchasing items that are unused, unsoiled, and in perfect condition.

Personal items include, but are not limited to:

  • Sleeping Bags, Mats & Liners, Pillows, Water bottles, Hydration Packs
