Return & Refund Policy
At Prichet's Shoe Services, we want customers to feel confident when shopping with us. We stand behind the quality of our products and aim to provide a fair and transparent return and refund experience. This Refund Policy explains the conditions, timelines, and procedures related to returns, refunds, exchanges, and damaged or incorrect items.
This policy applies to all purchases made through Prichet's Shoe Services.
Return & Exchange Eligibility
We offer a 30-day window for eligible returns and exchanges.
Timeline
- Customers may request a return or exchange within 30 days from the date the order is delivered.
- Requests submitted after this 30-day period will not be accepted.
Product Condition (Footwear Specifics)
To qualify for an approved return or exchange, items must be in their original, unused condition. Because fit is important, we welcome you to try on your shoes indoors to check the fit and comfort.
However, to be accepted, the returned footwear must meet the following criteria:
- The shoes must show no signs of outdoor wear, scuffs, dirt, or heavy creasing on the upper.
- The outsoles and insoles must be completely clean.
- Original packaging (including the original shoe box and any shoe trees/tags) must be included and undamaged.
- Proof of purchase or the order number is required.
All returned items are thoroughly inspected upon arrival before any final approval is granted.
