Returns & Exchanges

Return Policies

We ask that the item meets our return conditions and is accompanied by an original receipt, gift receipt, or online order number if it’s available to you. 

If you need to send the item back through mail, please follow the steps on our Online Return Portal using the order number and email address associated with the original order (from the person who gifted you the item). If you need a store credit sent to a different email than the one associated with the original order, please send us an email with your original order number and RMA number to notify us.

If you will be coming into the store, simply bring the item and gift receipt or order number with you to return or exchange the item.

Hardpressed offers refunds* for items that meet our return conditions within 14 days of the original purchase or ship date. Refunds must be processed onto the original method of payment, so you may need assistance from the person who initially purchased the gift.

Hardpressed offers exchanges or store credit* in the form of a gift card for items that meet our return conditions within 30 days of the initial purchase or ship date.

*Some exclusions apply. Read our full policies for details.

RESTOCKING FEE

All returned items, arriving in-store or through mail, will be inspected upon receipt. Items must be unwashed, unworn, and in new condition with tags still attached. Items that do not arrive in "new" condition will be subject to a restocking fee determined by Hardpressed depending on the condition of the item. 

Circumstances that may warrant a restocking fee are items that require steaming due to signs of wear (beyond normal wear from trying on) or have abnormal amounts of lint or hair on them. Items will be disqualified from return if they are scented with smoke/perfumes/cologne, have visible stains, or have been laundered/dry cleaned, etc.

We're so sorry that you’ve received a defective or wrong item in your order and we want to apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused! We do our best to quality-check all of our products before they are shipped or put on our retail floor. However, we are human after all, so sometimes mistakes can happen.

If purchased in-store: Hardpressed is happy to reconcile this for you. Please call us at 1 (306) 384-5488, send us an email at store@hardpressed.ca, or come back to the store with the defective item and your original purchase receipt and we will be happy to resolve the matter as soon as possible.

If purchased online: To process an exchange for a damaged or incorrect item, please use our Online Return Portal and choose "Item is damaged" or "Received wrong item" as the reason for return. Select the same item and size for exchange and provide any necessary photos when prompted. Upon review and approval, a return label with steps on how to return the item(s) will be emailed to the customer. This may take up to 3 business days. A replacement (stock permitting) will be sent once the defective/wrong item is received back at our facility. Hardpressed will cover all shipping costs.

If the item you'd like in exchange is out of stock, your best option is to send it back for store credit. Store credit is issued in the form of a virtual gift card, can be used online or in-store, and never expires. From there, you can sign up for restock notification to be notified when the item you want has been restocked. If it's an item that won't be restocked, the store credit can be used toward any other item!

In the event that an item from an online order is unavailable, the customer will be contacted. Unless an alternative item is requested, Hardpressed will refund the cost of the unavailable item back onto the original payment method within 7 days of contacting the customer.
