How Do I Return From Overseas?
INTRODUCING OUR NEW INDUSTRY LEADING EXPRESS EXCHANGE SERVICE.
We have recently changed the way that we process items returned to us for an exchange to make it as slick as possible and help you get the right item before it sells out! Instead of waiting for the item to come back to us to be processed, we will process your exchange when the courier confirms that they have the returned parcel in their possession meaning that you get your exchanged item up to 5 days quicker in busy periods!
Returns
We understand that sometimes you'll need to return items to us and we've made this easy, fast and simple.
We want you to love our products as much as we do, so if it doesn’t fit, you’ve had a change of heart, if it’s faulty or you just aren’t feeling it. No worries! We believe returns should be easy.
We'll exchange or refund all items which:
Are returned to us within 100 days of receipt.
Are returned to us in perfect condition, with their original packaging and with the labels attached.
Please note:
Footwear should be tried on a clean, soft surface to avoid scuffing the soles. Any unclean or scuffed items will be returned to you.
Clothing must be returned in an unworn, fragrance-free condition with labels attached. Any marked items or that smell of fragrance will be returned to you.
If we receive your return in an unsatisfactory condition we reserve the right to return the product back to you.
If you receive an imperfect item please contact us on customerservice@sportsshoes.com.
If you wear the item or attempt to repair it your warranty will be voided meaning your product can no longer be returned.
For health and hygiene reasons, we are unable to accept the return of underwear and swimwear that has been worn.
Your statutory rights are not affected.
HOW TO RETURN
At the moment we don’t offer a returns service ourselves, but we’ve got together with our courier partners below who are delighted to offer Sportsshoes.com customers a range of easy return options and reduced postage rates when returning items back to us. Please make sure to read the terms and conditions carefully when returning items via third party courier services.
Please note that unless an item is denoted as Free Returns it is your responsibility to return unwanted items to us and to bear the costs of returning them. Sportsshoes.com is not responsible for returned goods lost in transit and it’s important to ensure that you return goods on a postal service with adequate insurance should you need to make a claim.

If your return has an order value of over £300 please contact us so we arrange adequate insurance.
