Refund Policy

1) NO FREE RETURNS

  • Customers are responsible for all return shipping costs.
  • Customers are responsible for reviewing size guides before purchase.
  • Shipping costs (original or return) are non-refundable, except in cases of faulty or incorrect items.


2) 14-DAY RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL (EU/EEA)

If you are located in the EU/EEA, you have a legal right to withdraw within 14 days of receiving your order.

To exercise this right:

  • You must email kankretclothing@gmail.com within 14 days
  • You must return the goods within 14 days after notification

Returns sent without prior contact may experience delays in processing


3) RETURN AUTHORIZATION PROCESS

Before returning any item, you must contact us at:

kankretclothing@gmail.com

Inspection standard

Items must be in condition comparable to new retail stock.

We reserve the right to:

  • reject returns, or

if items show any signs of handling beyond what is necessary to assess them.

This is based on EU rules regarding consumer liability for diminished value.
