YOUR PACKAGE HAS BEEN RETURNED TO THE SENDER?

If your package is returned to us, don't worry! Upon receiving it, we will contact you via email and reship your order at our expense. However, if you prefer not to keep your order, you will be refunded, excluding the delivery charges.

IS YOUR PACKAGE LOST?

If, after 10 days following the confirmation of your order, you still haven't received it, we invite you to check the status of your order in your customer account and contact us here.

We will initiate an investigation with the postal services. Once the investigation is completed (usually within about 10 days) and the package is considered lost, you have two options: we will fully refund your order, or we can offer you a voucher valid for 3 months on our website albertine-swim.com (http://albertine-swim.com/ (http://albertine-swim.com/)) or in one of our 3 stores.

HOW TO MAKE A RETURN?

To make a return, visit our Return an Item page and follow the procedure.

Returns are subject to a fee (€6) unless you are making an exchange (for color, model, or size). In that case, you will receive a prepaid label to send back the item you ordered.

CAN I MAKE A RETURN IN-STORE?

You can absolutely visit one of our 3 stores in Paris, Hossegor, or Biarritz to make an exchange (in the form of a voucher) or request a refund.

WHAT ARE THE RETURN CONDITIONS?

Any item returned incomplete (without product tag, straps, removable pads, fasteners, buttons), damaged, washed, or stained will not be refunded.

Your return request may be rejected if:

  • The return deadline is exceeded. In this case, you will receive a voucher valid on the website for 3 months.
  • The returned item does not meet the detailed return conditions mentioned above.

If your item has a defect, we sincerely apologize, and we encourage you to notify us upon receipt at this email address.

WHAT ARE THE REFUND TIMELINES?

Returns are processed within a period of 15 business days; however, during peak times, these timelines may be slightly extended.

The amount is refunded to the bank account associated with the card used for the order payment. An email confirming the processing of your return will be sent to you. The refunded amount corresponds to the value of the returned products with tags and in perfect condition.

If your return has not been processed after 3 weeks, feel free to contact us here.

CAN I MAKE A RETURN WITH A GIFT CARD?

If you used a gift card for your order, you will receive a new voucher equal to the value of the returned products. It is valid for 3 months on albertine-swim.com and in our stores.

CAN I MAKE A RETURN IF I USED A PROMOTION CODE?

If you used a discount code during your order, it will not be reissued after your return. You will be refunded the amount of your order.
