FAQ

How do I return or exchange an item?

To initiate a return please submit a request for a Return Authorization (RA) through your SSENSE account. Alternatively, you can contact our Customer Care team to assist you with the return process. SSENSE adheres to a strict no-paper policy, so as to reduce waste. This is why shipments do not include a return slip inside the box.

SSENSE does not process direct exchanges. We ask that you return the merchandise for a full refund and place a new order for the preferred item(s) at your earliest convenience.

Guest Orders: If an order was placed using the guest check out option, please create an SSENSE account to request and manage the return yourself. Alternatively, you can contact our Customer Care team to help facilitate the return.

Can I cancel or modify my order?

Modifying or cancelling an order is possible so long as the merchandise has not yet entered the packaging or shipment phases.

To modify or cancel your order:

• Log in to your SSENSE account
• Click on the Order History tab on the left-hand side
• Under Modify, select the subject of your request
• Fill out the contact form and send us your request

Please contact Customer Care if you do not have an SSENSE account and would like to make changes to an existing order. Our 24/7 Customer Care team will help facilitate any changes before the order enters the shipping queue.

Please note: if an order was placed using the guest check out option, you must create an SSENSE account to modify the order yourself. Alternatively, you can contact our Customer Care team for assistance.

When will I receive my order?

Once your purchase has been completed, an e-mail confirmation will be sent to the address on file. This e-mail acts as an invoice and includes your order number.

Once your order is placed a standard processing time of up to 2 business days is required before the order is shipped out. Orders placed after 11:00 AM (EST) may be processed the next business day, and orders placed on weekends and holidays will be processed the following business day starting at 8:00 AM (EST). During peak periods, processing times may exceed 2 business days.

Once your order has been shipped, you will receive an e-mail with your shipment’s tracking information, allowing you to keep tabs on the progress of your delivery.

How do I know the item will fit me? OR How does the item fit?

In order to help find the best fit, the following information is available on every product page:

-A size conversion chart to help convert international sizes
-Product-specific measurements (i.e sleeve length, pant leg width etc.)
-Size of the garment worn by the model, alongside their specific measurements

The above can be found in the ‘View Size Chart’ tab on any item’s product page.

Our Customer Care team is always available to answer any questions regarding measurements and fitting.

Are duties and taxes included?

Taxes

The prices listed on individual product pages are calculated based on the location you are shopping from. In order to ensure you’re seeing the most accurate pricing, taxes and delivery fees while you browse, make sure to select your shipping country at the bottom of any page.

Please note: when using the SSENSE mobile app please allow access to location services in order to see location specific pricing.

Duties

Canada
For orders that are placed within Canada, customers will be charged federal and provincial sales taxes -- these depend on which province the order is being shipped to. Since SSENSE is a Montreal-based company, Canadian orders will not be subjected to any duties upon delivery, as the shipment is not traversing any borders.

International
We ship to over 40 countries with duties and taxes included. If applicable, duties and taxes will be included in the final price at check out and your order will be shipped DDP (Delivered Duty Paid). Upon delivery, you will not be required to pay any additional fees.

If duties and taxes are not included in the final price at check out, your order will be shipped DDU (Delivered Duty Unpaid). As such, your order may incur duties, fees and import taxes upon delivery. This charge is determined by your local customs authority and payment of these fees is obligatory if you wish to obtain your shipment. For further information, please consult your local customs office.

United States

By placing an order with us, you acknowledge that this sale occurs outside the United States, and that you are importing your order for non-commercial (personal) use. You also acknowledge that you will be listed as the importer for US Customs and Border Protection purposes and that your order will be imported into the United States in accordance with the necessary customs requirements.

To simplify this process, your order indicates your agreement to authorize SSENSE to appoint a designated carrier/customs broker, where applicable, as your unpaid agent for customs purposes by executing a power of attorney applicable to a single noncommercial shipment. Your order serves as an electronic signature indicating your agreement to the following, as required by US Customs and Border Protection:

“The designated carrier/customs broker is hereby authorized to execute, as an unpaid agent who has knowledge of the facts, pursuant to the provisions of section 485(f), Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, the consignee’s and owner’s declarations provided for in section 485 (a) and (d), Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and to enter on my behalf or for my account the goods described in the attached invoice which contains a true and complete statement of the facts concerning the shipment.”

Your authorization permits the carrier/customs broker to file the customs entry on your behalf for any order that is over $2,500, or otherwise requires formal entry.
