RETURN PACKAGING
You are free to return your item(s) in the original packaging or whatever packaging you choose. Please do not staple any bags as it can damage the item(s).
Shoes must be returned in their original box and placed inside an additional, protective shipping box. Damage to the shoe box makes the shoes ineligible for returns. In this case, the shoes will be shipped back to you and you are subject to the return shipping costs.

AFTERPAY ORDERS
If an order is placed using Afterpay and an item doesn't work out, simply mail it back to us within 14 days of your order date and the total cost of your item(s) will be applied onto an Ale Collective e-giftcard. We do not issue store credits for partial payments, and you will still be responsible for the remaining payments to Afterpay from your original purchase.
