Stock availability: we try to maintain accurate stock counts on our website but from time-to-time there may be a stock discrepancy and we will not be able to fulfill all your items at time of purchase. In this instance, we will fulfill the available products to you, and contact you about whether you would prefer for us to process a refund or an in-store credit for any item that is out of stock.

Shipping costs are calculated during checkout. For shoes being shipped within Australia, a flat rate of $10 per pair is charged.

Payment for shipping will be collected with the purchase. This price will be the final price for shipping cost to the customer.
3. Returns
3.1 Return Due to Change of Mind
Under Australian Consumer Law, businesses are not obliged to accept returns for change of mind; because a customer found the same item cheaper; or when consumers have ignored the instructions of the seller.
Hallowed Footwear requires consumers to acknowledge at Checkout, that their foot measurements have been referenced to the relevant product size chart (found on each product page) to select the correct size. We take the time to measure every shoe style, in all of its available sizes, to assist customers with their size choice.
Hallowed Footwear offers Australian customers a ‘peace of mind’ replacement guarantee on their first purchase. This guarantee requires goods are received back to Hallowed Footwear in re-saleable, unworn condition (in line with our returns policy) for a size exchange of the same style purchased, or a style exchange for a pair of shoes of equal or lesser value (with credit not for the difference), without the customer incurring the cost of postage for the replacement pair being forwarded to them.
3.2 Return Due to Fault
Hallowed Footwear will happily accept returns due to fault, as long as a request to return is received by us within 14 days of receipt of item. This request must be made in writing to admin@hallowedfootwear.com.au. The item must be returned to us in original packaging in unused, resaleable condition. The customer is to arrange return by standard Australia Post shipping. This amount will be refunded to the customer once goods have been inspected and found faulty by Hallowed Footwear. Once returns are received and accepted as faulty, refund for product and postage will be processed to store credit or to the credit card or PayPal account used for purchase. We will notify you once this has been completed through email.
