RETURNS AND REFUNDS

Our company prides itself on great customer service.
Part of that comes from our straight-forward policies.
NOV 2023

Our team of designers, cutters, tailors, and seamstresses have over 100 years combined in garment manufacturing. We know that the only way to deliver a premium garment is to do it carefully and with attention to details.

Understand that every item we sell (including ready-to-wear) is made-to-order. Most garments are manufactured within 21 days (under normal circumstances) and will arrive according on the shipping options you select during checkout.

Please understand that our timelines are not fixed and do vary by workload and complexity. Although we diligently strive to meet our deadlines, our team will not be held liable to external deadlines. For best results, order at least 30 days prior to your event. 

Standard size items include garments purchased without customization or entering specific body measurements. It is important to note, however, that all garments are made-to-order and are subject to our timeline. Returns will not be accepted simply on the basis of order delivery timeline, however, if you are not satisfied with the quality or size of your standard sized item, you may return it.

Returns are accepted for up to 30 days from the date of receipt. To be eligible for a return, exchange, or refund your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. Understand, Washington Apparel Company (nor its affiliates) will not validate a return, exchange, or refund until the afore-mentioned criteria is met.

Listed below are the procedures for returns on standard size items:

  1. Notify us via our contact us form of the error and we’ll contact you within 24 hours to better understand the error. Please upload pictures or describe the error in detail.
  2. If the order is incorrect we will remake and ship you the correct item with express shipping free of charge or offer a full refund upon receipt of the item(s).
  3. Utilize the provided return label. If you do not use the provided return label, you will be responsible for paying the shipping costs for returning your item. Shipping costs are non-refundable. Depending on where you live, the time it may take for your product to reach us may vary. If you are shipping an item over $100, you should consider using a trackable shipping service or purchasing shipping insurance. We don’t guarantee that we will receive your returned item.

In order to facilitate timely refunds please follow the steps listed for standard returns.

  1. Once your return is received, then your refund will be processed to your original method of payment once your financial institution clears the transaction. 
  2. Refunds may take up to 10 business days. If you haven’t received a refund after 10 business days, contact your financial institution.
  3. If you’ve done this and still have not received your refund, please call directly at 910-248-3999, or email us at [email protected], or contact us using our contact form.

Made-to-measure items are customized garments that rely solely on your unique measurements. There is sometimes a distinct difference between the consumers expectation and the tailor’s ability to create to the customers satisfaction. Due to the complexity of this matter, we do not accept returns on made-to-measure items. Additionally, once you’ve commissioned a garment by paying the deposit amount all sales are final. 

Of course, we understand that sometimes there are human errors, therefore (with tangible/visible evidence) we offer the following remedies:

  1. Notify us of the error and we’ll contact you within 48 hours to better understand the error. Please upload pictures or describe the error in detail.
  2. If the order is incorrect due to our error, but can be altered, return the item to us. We will perform alterations to get your clothing to the correct fit at no cost to you. Alternatively you may take the item to a local tailor, then submit to us the receipt for reimbursement. To return your product for alterations, utilize the provided return label. If you do not use the provided return label, you will be responsible for paying the shipping costs for returning your item. Shipping costs are non-refundable. Depending on where you live, the time it may take for your product to reach us may vary. If you are shipping an item over $100, you should consider using a trackable shipping service or purchasing shipping insurance. We don’t guarantee that we will receive your returned item.
  3. If the order is incorrect due to our error, but can not be altered we’ll confirm your correct measurements with a consultation, then begin manufacturing a brand new item, then ship it to you with express shipping at no cost to you.

 

It is the clients responsibility to claim their in-store merchandise within 90 days of notification that the items are available for pickup. After the 3rd notification and the expiration of 90 days, the items and any payments will be forfeited.
