Our general returns policy applies.

Item(s) purchased online can be returned to a store near you. If our stores are closed in the instance of a lockdown, don’t worry!

Accidentally ordered the wrong size or had a change of mind?

We offer both return and exchange options, provided your items meet our Returns Policy. 

Exchanging online 

If you wish to exchange online, we recommend placing a new order and returning your existing item online for a refund. Orders returned online will be issued a full refund only.

Our online return instructions will guide you through the returns process. 

Exchanging in-store 

Our in-store team will happily process exchanges for store purchases and online purchases made with credit card or Afterpay. 

Afterpay purchases can be exchanged for same value items only. If you wish to exchange for an item of a higher or lower value, we suggest returning and repurchasing. Please note that exchanges can only be facilitated against the original card. 

Please note that PayPal purchases can only be exchanged for a different size in the exact style. As PayPal is a heavily encrypted, secure payment method, our store systems are unable to process PayPal transactions. PayPal orders must be returned online if you are not exchanging sizes in the exact style. 

We want you to be completely satisfied with our products and we're sorry to hear about your experience with our item(s).

Important to note: If your item was purchased from a third-party retailer and not directly from us (in-store or online), you will need to return to the retailer and have it assessed by them. Unfortunately, our CAT Experts  are unable to assist with returns or exchanges from other retailers.

Once the place of purchase has assessed your item(s) they will be able to advise the next steps.

You will be refunded according to your original payment method within 2-5 business days of your return being processed. 

Debit or credit card 

Your refund will reflect in your account within 2-5 business days of your return being processed. 

PayPal 

We will initiate your refund, and PayPal will be in touch once they have finalised your refund. You'll be able to transfer the funds from PayPal into your account. 

Afterpay 

When your refund is processed, Afterpay will send you an email and make the necessary adjustments to your payment schedule. Please see our article on Afterpay refunds for more information.

Please allow an additional 1-2 business days for refund processing over sales periods and public holidays. 

Unfortunately, PayPal orders cannot be refunded in-store. As PayPal is a heavily encrypted, secure payment method, our store systems are unable to process PayPal refunds. 

If your item meets our Returns Policy, you are welcome to return to our online store and we will initiate a refund for your order.

PayPal will be in touch once they have finalised your refund and you can then transfer the funds into your bank account if you wish.

We suggest turning the original packaging or a reusable shopping bag inside out to package your return in and protect it during transit.
