Frequently Asked Questions
Shipping
How long does shipping take?
Please allow 1 business day for processing plus up to 5 business days for delivery.
Expedited orders will be delivered according to the shipping speed that you chose at check out. Remember that even expedited orders require 1 business day to process before they can ship.
Shipments to APO/FPO addresses and US territories may require up to 45 business days and are not eligible for expedited delivery.
Where do you ship to?
We ship within the United States including PO Boxes, US territories, and APO/FPO addresses.
We plan to ship to other regions when we can provide a localized experience with fast shipping and lower shipping and customs fees. Sign up to be notified when we ship internationally.
View our Shipping page for more details.
What if I live outside of the US?
If you’re outside the US, you can use a freight forwarder. These services give you a US address to use at checkout. Your order ships to that address, and the forwarder then sends the package to you. When checking out, use the forwarder’s US address for both shipping and billing.
Please note that we don't recommend using a forwarder for most people because of the additional cost and hassle.
What should I do if my package is lost?
If your tracking shows "delivered," but you don’t have the package, first contact the shipping carrier. They may have mis-delivered it or still have it on the truck. Check the carrier’s tracking page for a proof-of-delivery photo.
If you and the carrier still can’t locate the package, contact us with your order number. Our Concierge team will file a claim and replace your order.
Returns
What is your return policy?
If you don't love your new gear, you may return it unused, within 30 days of the shipping date of your purchase for a refund, exchange, or store credit.
