3. Cases Where Returns/Exchanges Cannot Be Accepted

Returns and exchanges cannot be accepted for items that fall under any of the following categories:

• Items more than 7 days past delivery

• Items that have been used even once (including scuff marks on soles from trying on at home)

• Items with creases from trying on

• Incorrect size for made-to-order items

• Items with glue stains, minor scratches on the sole, or items tried on in-store

• Scratches or dirt on the shoebox before shipping

 • Special items such as sale items or samples

• Items purchased from places other than this website or the Kiyosumi-Shirakawa store

• If the shoebox is lost or a shipping label is attached directly to it

• If the "invoice" or "delivery note" is lost

• Minor dirt or scratches that we deem to be "good quality" by our standards

• [Examples] Small amount of glue residue, floating insoles, wrinkles from lasting

• Color and texture appear different from the image

• Odor

 Strong rubber adhesive is used in the shoe manufacturing process, and if the delivery period is short, odors may remain.Returns/exchanges based on odor are not accepted.

If you are concerned about the odor, please air the shoes in a well-ventilated, shaded area.

■ Adhesive, manufacturing individual differences, and decorations

・In the shoe manufacturing process, adhesive (glue) is used for sole bonding and finishing treatment.
While we remove as much as possible, due to the materials and structure, some unremovable areas may remain.

These are unavoidable specifications due to manufacturing and do not constitute defective products. They are not eligible for returns or exchanges.

However, if requested, we can re-wipe the glue and re-finish the product at our store. Please consult us first, as we need to inspect the actual product to determine the presence of glue and the feasibility of wiping it off.

・Fabrics with patterns or nap may have variations in how the pattern appears on the left and right, and individual differences. Also, due to small-batch production, the color and texture may vary between lots depending on when the fabric was reordered. We ask for your understanding.

・Please check immediately upon arrival to ensure that decorative items (such as rhinestones, corsages, ribbons, etc.) are not detached from the main body and that no rhinestones are missing. We may not be able to assist with issues that arise after wear. Initial missing rhinestones will be repaired free of charge if we have the corresponding stones in stock (customers are responsible for round-trip shipping costs). Replacement of decorative items will be handled for a fee if stock is available.
