What is Adidas’ return policy for customized or personalized items, and how should I prepare before shipping such items back for a return?
Adidas’ customized or personalized items return policy may differ from their standard policy. Reviewing the specific guidelines for such items below is crucial, as they may have unique terms and conditions.
Before shipping customized or personalized items back for a return, ensure they meet Adidas’ criteria, including being unworn and in their original condition. Keep your order confirmation handy, use appropriate packaging to protect the item during transit, and follow Adidas’ instructions for return labels if provided. These steps will help ensure a smooth return process and increase the likelihood of a successful resolution.
Adidas typically offers a 30-day return policy from the date of purchase.
