Returns Policy

This policy applies to in-store purchases only. Please see our Online Returns Policy for purchases made online.

We're constantly checking Government updates and directives, so if an area, city or state lockdown impacts your ability to return your item, don't worry! Our 30 day returns policy remains, but we won't count the days that stores and/or post offices are closed.

Need to return your items? We want you to be completely satisfied with our products and we will gladly accept returns within 30 days of receipt where the products are in new, unworn with tags attached and in their original packaging.

 3 simple conditions for a successful return:

• Item(s) were purchased in the last 30 days and proof of purchase can be provided.
• Item(s) must be unworn & undamaged with original tags attached.
• Items are in their original packaging (shoebox) and in original condition.

Shoes must be returned in their original, undamaged shoebox. 

In-store conditions

In-store purchases cannot be returned or refunded to the online store at this point in time.

Exchanges & store credit

In-store purchases that are eligible for return and within 30 days of receipt may be exchanged for other items, or store credit provided. It is at the discretion of our team to decide whether a full refund will be provided. 

Credit notes are valid for 12 months.

Credit notes must be presented at time of redemption.

Faulty items

We will gladly accept returns for any faulty item(s) provided that it is a genuine manufacturing fault.

Please note that this process applies to online purchases only. Please see our in-store faulty assessment for more information on purchases made in-store.  

We're so sorry to hear that your item is faulty. If you believe any purchased items may have manufacturing faults, please follow the below steps.

You are welcome to head into your local store and have the item assessed by a store manager. Click here for more information on in-store faulty assessments! If the item is deemed faulty, our team will be able to assist you. Please note that any items purchased with PayPal cannot be returned to store. You will need to contact our Vans Team for a faulty assessment.

Alternatively, if you cannot make it to your local store, you may contact our Vans Team for a faulty assessment. Please provide us with the below information as it helps to speed up the process:

- Order number or proof of purchase

- Photographs that display the fault from all angles.

*Please do not send the faulty product back without contacting us first.

* Proof of purchase is required to initiate a Faulty Assessment. 

*If an item has been misused or worn in a manner contrary to its purpose, the item will be classified as ‘general wear and tear’. Forms of misuse may include but are not limited to cuts, heat or burns, exposure to chemicals or harsh elements, contact with gravel/bitumen while using motorized vehicles, skateboarding, machine washing and any alterations (eg. shoe repair).

*If your item has been deemed faulty, we ask that you ensure your item is either destroyed or disposed of. Accent Group and its related entities cannot accept liability for any further loss or damage suffered if the shoes continue to be worn.

• exchange for the same item
• exchange for a different size
• a full refund (depending on the payment method)
• disagree that there is a genuine manufacturing fault and therefore not process the return.
