Items that are damaged as a result of wear and tear are not considered to be faulty. It is at the discretion of The Shelter's Head Office to determine fault. If you would like to return a faulty item, follow the standard returns procedure. Upon accepting the fault of the product, we firstly have the option to repair the faulty item or replace it for the same product in the same size. If we cannot repair or fulfill with a replacement you will receive a credit or refund including your original postage charges. Unfortunately any levies charged at the destination country are non refundable.

What if the parcel I am returning is lost?

The Shelter cannot be held responsible for reimbursement or compensation for lost packages sent to us. We suggest you insure your return package or send it with a tracked courier.
