Refunds, Returns & Exchanges
We have a 5-day return policy, which means you have 5 days after receiving your item to request a return. For orders placed during the holiday season of December we accept returns requested within 5 days of December 25 in exchange for an alternate size or store credit at the equivalent value of the purchase. Please see below for further information on our return and refund policies.
To be eligible for a return, your item must be in the same condition that you received it. Meaning unworn or unused, folded as it came, with tags, and in its original packaging. You will also need the receipt or proof of purchase.
To start a return, please contact us through the chat on our website or process the request for return on your account page. To be able to process the return on your account page please make sure you have an updated customer profile by clicking here. If a return is processed on the account page we will notify you in 24-48 hours if the return is accepted or if we require more information. If the return is accepted but does not arrive in eligible return condition as listed above, then your refund may be denied and the item(s) will be sent back with the original shipping rate as an additional fee.
When your request to return is accepted, we will send you a return shipping label, as well as instructions on how and where to send your package. At this time we do not offer return shipping labels on international orders - this is something we are working to address with our logistics partners. Items sent back to us without first requesting a return will not be accepted. Once your item is returned and accepted as being in eligible return condition we will process your refund with return shipping fees deducted.
Shipping Policy
All orders are processed within 1 to 3 business days (excluding weekends and holidays) after receiving your order confirmation email. You will receive another notification when your order has shipped.
Damages and Issues
Please inspect your order upon reception and contact us immediately if the item is defective, damaged or if you receive the wrong item, so that we can evaluate the issue and make it right.
Exceptions / Non-Returnable Items
Certain types of items cannot be returned, like perishable goods (such as food, flowers, or plants), custom products (such as special orders or personalized items), and personal care goods (such as beauty products). We also do not accept returns for hazardous materials, flammable liquids, or gases. Please get in touch if you have questions or concerns about your specific item.
Unfortunately, we cannot accept returns on sale items, gift cards, collaboration items or items purchased for commercial use unless approved in writing from a Knickerbocker representative beforehand.
Exchanges
The fastest way to ensure you get what you want is to return the item you have, and once the return is accepted, make a separate purchase for the new item.
European Union 14 Day Cooling Off Period
Notwithstanding the above, if the merchandise is being shipped into the European Union, you have the right to cancel or return your order within 14 days, for any reason and without a justification. As above, your item must be in the same condition that you received it, unworn or unused, with tags, and in its original packaging. You will also need the receipt or proof of purchase.
Refunds
We will notify you once we have received and inspected your return to let you know if the refund was approved or not. Please give us 24-48 hours upon receipt of your return to notify you. If your return is approved, you will be automatically refunded on your original payment method within 10 business days and receive a notification at the contact information associated with the order. Please remember it can take some time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund. If more than 15 business days have passed since we have approved your return and processed your refund, please contact us through the chat on our website.
