Shipping & Returns

• We ship to every destination in the world via EMS and DHL from Taiwan.
• We ship the order within 2 - 4 business days (depending on stock availability). Once your order is shipped, you will receive a shipment confirmation and tracking no. by e-mail.
• Due to the shipping cost increase caused by the current global COVID-19 situation, we will temporarily stop accepting orders form some remote countries such as South America, Africa, Russia...etc. Countries not available to make order will not show up in the country name field of order form. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused.

• FREE SHIPPING does not exempt customers from paying additional customs duty and VAT fees, which is a requirement for shipment to select countries. 
• We believe in getting gear to you at no additional cost. For all orders over USD $130 we will ship to you for free via express delivery. Please be aware that this policy will not apply to remote countries. The shipping fee will be calculated based on the country and will be displayed at the Payment Page.
• You may request exchange or return for any personal reason (i.e. size doesn't fit or you don't like the color or style) within 14 days of having received the shoes and the returned shoes should be unused.
