BFPO & Military camps:

We currently do NOT ship to BFPO addresses. Due to a change in Royal Mail processing of BFPO addresses, we have received a large number of these items being returned. We suggest you get it sent to a UK address for forwarding or when you return. Military camps we DO ship to, however, this is done at your own risk due to the unreliability of the MOD mailing systems. If your order is returned to us we will resend it to a UK address but may ask for an additional postage fee to help cover the forwarding cost.

Returns:

If you would like to return an item* please return it to the return address located below. We request that you include a note within the package stating your order number and reason for return. Without this, the return and any refund may be delayed. It is also requested and recommended that you send an email to [email protected] with the same information.

*PLEASE NOTE: Due to Silkies being sold to be worn without underwear for hygiene reasons we cannot accept exchanges.  If you are unhappy with your silkies please email the above email address as faulty or damaged goods will still be refunded as per our policy.

We recommend that all returns are sent tracked and signed for postage, in a parcel that is equivalent to or better than the packaging the item arrived to you in. If the item arrived with any specific packaging or attached labels these must be returned attached or this may affect your refund options.

Damaged or faulty goods:

If an item arrives damaged or faulty, please email [email protected] with photos of the issue. We will then offer a refund or replacement if the stock is available. Depending on the fault the item may be requested to be returned. If this is the case it will be done so at the cost of GTC and not the customer, if the item is not requested then the customer is asked to recycle or reuse it however possible to reduce the further impact on the earth.

Exchanges of size:

Due to processing times and distribution systems, we are unable to offer exchanges for size. We will issue a full refund for the order and request you reorder the correct size, which would be faster than an exchange process anyway.
