Returns Policy – Perfect Shoe

Welcome to the Perfect Shoe Returns Policy page. At perfectlyshoe.com, we want you to feel completely confident and delighted with every purchase you make. We understand that sometimes, despite our best efforts to provide detailed product descriptions, accurate sizing guides, and high-quality imagery, a pair of shoes may not work out for you. Whether it is a matter of fit, style preference, or simply a change of heart, we are here to make the returns process as straightforward, fair, and hassle-free as possible. Our goal is to ensure that your shopping experience remains positive from start to finish, even when a return is necessary.

Our Commitment to Your Satisfaction

We believe that buying shoes online should be a risk-free and enjoyable experience. That is why we stand behind the quality and craftsmanship of every product we offer. However, we also recognise that personal comfort and fit are highly subjective. Your feet are unique, and what feels wonderful to one person may not suit another. Therefore, we have designed our returns policy with flexibility and customer care at its core. We are committed to working with you to resolve any concerns, whether that means issuing a refund, facilitating an exchange, or offering store credit for future purchases.

Return Eligibility Criteria

To ensure a smooth and efficient return process, we ask that all returned items meet the following eligibility criteria:

• Condition: Items must be returned in their original, unworn, and unused condition. This means they should show no signs of wear, scuffs, or damage. We kindly request that you try on your shoes on a clean, soft surface, such as a carpet or rug, to protect the soles and prevent any marks. Shoes that have been worn outdoors, or that show visible signs of use, will not be eligible for return.
• Packaging: Please return the shoes in their original shoebox and packaging. The box itself should not be used as the outer shipping container, as this can cause damage to the box and the product inside. We recommend placing the shoebox inside a secure outer packaging envelope or carton for protection during transit. All original labels, tags, and dust bags must also be included.
• Timeframe: We encourage you to initiate your return promptly after receiving your order. While we do not impose an unreasonably short window, we ask that you notify us of your intention to return within a reasonable period. This allows us to process your request efficiently and ensures that we can restock items while they remain current in our collection.
• Non-returnable items: Please note that certain products are not eligible for return due to hygiene or customisation reasons. These include, but are not limited to, personalised or monogrammed footwear, items marked as final sale or clearance, and any product that has been altered or modified after purchase. We clearly indicate such exclusions on the relevant product pages to avoid any confusion at the time of ordering.

How to Initiate a Return

Returning an item to perfectlyshoe.com is a simple and straightforward process. We have designed our system to be user-friendly, so you can manage your return with minimal effort:

1. Log in to your account: Visit our website and log in to the account you used to place your order. Navigate to your order history and locate the specific order you wish to return.
2. Select the item(s): Choose the item(s) you are returning and indicate the reason for your return. This feedback is valuable to us, as it helps us improve our product offerings and sizing guidance for all customers.
3. Print your return label: Our system will generate a pre-printed return label for your convenience. Attach this label securely to the outer packaging of your return parcel. Please ensure that the label is clearly visible and not obstructed by any other markings.
4. Package your return: Place the shoes, with all original packaging and tags, into a sturdy outer box. Seal the box securely to prevent any damage during transit. We recommend using the original outer packaging if it is still in good condition.
5. Drop off your parcel: Take your sealed return parcel to the designated drop-off point specified on the return label. Keep your proof of postage receipt until your return has been fully processed, as this provides evidence of your shipment should any tracking issues arise.

Refund Process

Once we receive your returned item, our quality control team will carefully inspect it to ensure it meets our eligibility criteria. This inspection typically takes a short time, during which we verify the condition, packaging, and authenticity of the product. Upon successful inspection, we will initiate your refund.

• Refund method: Refunds will be issued to the original payment method used at the time of purchase. This includes credit cards, debit cards, and digital payment platforms. If you used a gift card or store credit, the refund will be applied back to that same instrument.
• Refund confirmation: You will receive a confirmation email once your refund has been processed. Please allow a reasonable number of business days for the funds to appear in your account, as processing times may vary depending on your bank or payment provider.

Exchanges

If you wish to exchange your purchase for a different size, colour, or style, we are happy to accommodate your request, subject to stock availability. The exchange process follows the same initial steps as a return. Once we receive your returned item and verify its condition, we will dispatch your exchange item as soon as possible. If your preferred exchange item is out of stock, we will notify you and offer you the choice of a refund or store credit. We do not hold items for exchange, so we recommend checking our website for real-time availability before initiating your return.

Late or Missing Refunds

If you have not received your refund after a reasonable period, please first check with your bank or credit card company, as there is often a processing lag between our issuance and the funds appearing in your account. If you have done this and still have not received your refund, please reach out to us through our website’s contact options, and we will investigate the matter thoroughly. Please have your order number and return tracking information ready, as this will help us assist you more efficiently.

Return Exceptions and Important Notes

• Faulty or Incorrect Items: In the unlikely event that you receive a faulty item or an item that does not match your order, please contact us immediately. We will prioritise your case and arrange for a full refund or replacement without any deductions, and we will guide you through the return process for such exceptional circumstances.
• International Returns: For our international customers, please be aware that return shipping costs and any applicable customs fees are the responsibility of the sender. We recommend using a trackable shipping service for international returns, as we cannot assume liability for parcels lost in transit without proper tracking.
• Restocking: We do not apply restocking fees; our process is designed to be fair and transparent. However, if items are returned in a condition that does not meet our eligibility standards, we may need to refuse the return or issue a partial refund to account for the diminished value of the product.
