​
Custom made orders: We will email you to confirm your custom request and you will be given an estimated delivery date. We generally have a two week garment make time, unless our order book is full, in which case we will contact you with an estimated delivery date and you will be given the option to cancel the order at this time if our delivery capability does not fit with your requirements.

Please note: deliveries may take longer during our busier times, such as during sales and promotions. If for any reason there is likely to be a delay in dispatching your order, such as stock availability we will notify you by email.

We use Royal Mail First Class post for all UK deliveries.
Due to new GPSR regulations we are no longer able to ship to the EU and NI.
Due to high shipping charges, we are unable to ship to worldwide locations.

The term “ready to wear” clothing means any garment that has not been made to order.
​
How do I return an unwanted item?
Please contact The Cloth Fox by email, phone, direct message or return to the shop to advise us of your return/exchange needs. Goods must be returned to The Cloth Fox, 10 St Thomas Street, Lymington, Hampshire, SO41 9NA.
​
Unfortunately, as a small business we are currently unable to provide a free returns service for our customers and any returned item will need to be made at your own expense.
​
We recommend that you receive proof of postage for your returned items as we cannot be responsible for items lost in transit.​
Can I exchange an item?
Yes, if your returned goods meet the criteria set out for a refund and you would prefer to exchange the goods we are happy to oblige (any additional funds will be charged or refunded at the time of exchange if the exchange item costs more or less than the original).
​​​
When will I receive my refund?
Once we have received your return parcel in the post we will email you to confirm your parcel has been received by us. Please allow 3-5 working days for returns to be processed once they are received by us.
​
If you have requested a refund for your order we will send you the refund the same way you made payment. For example if you paid for your order by Debit Card, your refund will be sent back via your Debit Card.
​
Please allow 5-7 working days for the refund to show in your account once the refund has been processed.
