-
Emailing SLG@SteppingLikeGOD.com with your order number, the item(s) you wish to return, and the reason for the return.
-
-
Return Authorization: Our team will review your request and provide a Return Authorization Number (RAN) and a prepaid shipping label (for U.S. customers only) within 3 business days. International customers are responsible for return shipping costs unless the return is due to our error (e.g., defective or incorrect item).
Step 2: Package and Ship the Item
-
Packaging: Place the item(s) in their original packaging (or a secure alternative) along with a copy of your order confirmation or a note including your order number, RAN, and reason for return.
-
Shipping:
-
U.S. Customers: Use the provided prepaid shipping label to send the package via the designated carrier (e.g., USPS, FedEx, or UPS). Drop off the package at an authorized carrier location or schedule a pickup if available.
-
International Customers: Ship the package to SLG Returns Department, [----------], using a reliable carrier with tracking. We recommend retaining proof of shipment and tracking information.
-
-
Deadline: Items must be shipped back to SLG within 14 days of receiving the RAN to remain eligible for a refund.
Step 3: Inspection and Refund Processing
-
Inspection: Once we receive your return, we will inspect the item(s) to ensure they meet the eligibility criteria. This process typically takes 3–5 business days.
-
Refund Issuance: If approved, a refund will be issued to the original payment method within 7–10 business days of receiving and inspecting the return. The refund will include the purchase price of the item(s), excluding original shipping costs, unless the return is due to our error.
-
Notification: You will receive an email confirmation once the refund has been processed. For international orders, note that bank processing times or currency conversion may cause slight delays.
3. Exchanges
-
Availability: Exchanges are subject to product availability. If you wish to exchange an item (e.g., for a different size or color), follow the same return procedure and indicate your exchange request when contacting Customer Service.
-
Process: If the desired item is available, we will ship the replacement once we receive and approve your return. If the item is unavailable, you may choose a refund or store credit.
-
Shipping for Exchanges: For U.S. customers, SLG will cover the shipping cost for the replacement item. International customers are responsible for shipping costs for the replacement item unless the return is due to our error.
4. Defective or Incorrect Items
-
Reporting: If you receive a defective, damaged, or incorrect item, contact us within 7 days of delivery at SLG@SteppingLikeGOD.com. Please provide your order number, a description of the issue, and photos of the item and packaging (if applicable).
-
Resolution: For approved claims, SLG will provide a prepaid shipping label (for both U.S. and international customers) and offer a replacement, refund, or store credit at your discretion. If a replacement is chosen and the item is unavailable, a refund or store credit will be issued.
-
Shipping Costs: SLG will cover all shipping costs for returns due to defective or incorrect items.

Original Shipping Costs: Original shipping fees are non-refundable unless the return is due to SLG’s error (e.g., defective or incorrect item).

Customs and Duties: International customers are responsible for any customs duties or taxes associated with returning items. We recommend checking with your local customs authority for details.
-
Return Address: All international returns must be sent to SLG Returns Department, [--------}

Gift Cards: Gift cards are non-returnable and non-refunded.
