What is your latest online returns policy?

We're constantly checking Government updates and directives, so if an area, city or state lockdown impacts your ability to return your item, don't worry! Our 30 day returns policy remains, but we won't count the days that stores and/or post offices are closed.

Need to return your items? We want you to be completely satisfied with our products and we will gladly accept returns within 30 days of receipt where the products are in new, unworn with tags attached and in their original packaging.

3 simple conditions for a successful return:

• Item(s) were purchased in the last 30 days and proof of purchase can be provided.
• Item(s) must be unworn & undamaged with original tags attached.
• Items are in their original packaging (shoebox) and in original condition.

• Please note that returns cannot be sent with the shoebox taped up, written on or exposed. Please use either the original postage bag or an inside out plastic shopping bag. *

  *We reserve the right to reject any returns that do not meet these requirements.

Important to note! Orders returned online will be issued a full refund only. If you'd like to exchange online, please place a new order and return your existing item for a refund. Alternatively, you can visit our Werribee store for an exchange.

*Any item(s) that were not purchased from an authorised CAT store will need to be returned/exchanged at the original store of purchase. Please click here for more information.

You are responsible for the costs of returning any item(s) to our online store. Any returned item(s) are your property and remain your responsibility until they reach our warehouse.

Refunds

Once you have dropped your parcel off at the Post Office, please allow some time for your item to reach our warehouse. Our top tip is to keep a note of your Australia Post return tracking number, that way you can track your order and see when it reaches us.

Upon receipt, a returned item will be processed by our returns warehouse within 2-3 business days.

Once processed, the refund will show in your account within 2-5 business days, depending on your financial institution.

Due to the increased volume over sales periods, please allow an additional 1-2 business days for refund processing.

Faulty items

If you believe you have received a faulty item, please do not submit a return as our returns warehouse does not process faulty assessments. Please read about our Faulty Assessment process here.

If you believe your online purchase arrived with a manufacturing fault, or you received something different to your original order, we'll be happy to cover the cost of the return.

If this is the case, please contact our CAT Experts below with as many details as possible about the order. We'll request your order/receipt number and photographs of the tongues, tops, sides, soles and fault.
