Returns

As a small business with a range of high demand, often seasonal pieces we only offer returns for store credit only. Please note that all underwear and Sale items are considered Final Sale. 

If you decide to return any pieces please do so within 14 days of receiving your order. We don’t cover return shipping costs but will cover new outgoing shipping costs for exchanges. Items must be unworn and unwashed, with the tags still attachedand all product packaging intact for resale.  Once we receive your return and verify the quality, we will send you a Store Credit “Gift Card” which can be redeemed at checkout in full or in part until the total amount is used up. There is no expiry on Store Credits issued. 

Since you will be liable for any lost or damaged packages we recommend using a carrier that provides tracking and/or registration. 

Please inspect all items received upon receipt. Any fault with the garment cannot be determined after wearing and/or washing or being stored for a period before opening. 

We avoid most Superwash Merino wool which is a chemical treatment to make wool machine washable. Shrinking/felting a wool garment occurs when the item has been washed incorrectly. It is not indicative of a fault and there is no exchange/refunds after a garment has been washed.

Fill in the returns slip provided on the back of your order sheet that came with your order within 14 days of receipt of the goods. 

Send item/s back unworn in original packaging with all tags attached to: Woollykins Returns, Shed 90, 9 Walker Street, Castlemaine 3450 VIC. (Please try to re-use the compostable satchel you received your order in)

When your return has been received we can send out the item requested for exchange. 

Exchanges will be dependent on stock availability. 

QUICK EXCHANGE - If you're concerned about availability or want to expedite this process, Re-order the desired item online to the equivalent value at least of your return and we'll send you out a pre-paid returns label for the return of the unwanted garments with your new order. When your returns come back to us we will refund those items. IMPORTANT!Please email orders@woollykins.com.au to advise us of your Quick Exchange so we know to include a returns label with your new order. 

Please note there are no returns or exchanges on Sale or Clearance items or items that have been washed or worn.

What's your returns policy on items bought in sales and promotions?

All promotional purchases are final sale and are not eligible for return or exchange. There will be no price adjustments for previous purchases and no extensions allowed. 

Final Sale items cannot be returned. No exceptions will be made for sizing, fit, or fabric issues. We understand that buying Final Sale items can be tricky, so if you have any questions about the style, please reach out to us before placing your order. Sorry, but items purchased as a gift are still applicable to our 'Final Sale' policy and cannot be returned. 

We do everything possible to make sure your purchase is as you expect when it reaches you, but occasionally items might be subject to a fault. Manufacturing errors are rare, but if you receive a damaged or faulty product please email us at  orders@woollykins.com.au within 7 days of receiving your order. To receive a replacement item, follow these steps:

1. Do not remove the tags.

2. Take a photo of the damaged product and include them in your email.

3. We will review the issue and upon approval we will either provide a full refund or exchange, depending on stock and availability. We may provide a pre-paid label to return the item before we approve or for returning the damaged item after the replacement item has been received.

If your item arrives with repairable damage, you might prefer to receive a discount instead of an exchange, and repair the item yourself. By doing this, you will not only save on cost, but also save the energy involved in shipping for the exchange, as well as the production of a second item (yay Planet!). 

We actively avoid Superwash Merino wool which is a chemical treatment to enable normal machine washing of wool. Shrinking/felting a wool garment occurs when the item has been washed incorrectly. It is not indicative of a fault in the garment and there is no exchange/refunds after a garment has been washed.

Please note: We have strict protocols for protecting garments in our care from moths. Once items leave our studio and land with you their safe storage is out of our control. Therefore it is important you inform us of any faults detected in the garment within 7 days.

Please allow 1-2 days to process your Store Credit after your item has been returned. You’ll receive an email with your Store Credit “Gift Card” code that you can redeem at checkout in full or in part until the amount is used up. There is no expiry on Store Credit.

If you qualify for a refund, please allow 2-4 business days to process once your item has been returned, and 2-4 business days for your bank to post the refund to your account. You’ll receive an email when our team has processed your refund so you know it’s on the way.
