Please account for the 24-48 hour processing time frame when looking at delivery dates. If you have a specific deadline please call in advance to ensure we can meet the required timeframe.
In addition, this policy does not apply to Baggins Originals or Custom Printed items as those are made to order and take 10-20 business days to complete.
We are happy to offer free Canada Post Regular Shipping for all Canadian orders with a subtotal greater than $125 ( after any eligible discounts and before tax). For orders under $125 (subtotal, and after any eligible discounts and before tax), we just charge what it costs us with Canada Post. The website will automatically calculate these options and you will have a chance to review them before submitting the order.
If you are not 100% satisfied with your purchase, we can look at two return options for the goods that didn't work (excluding custom prints, Baggins originals, and sale items), or exchange them for something else. Here are a few things to keep in mind:

Our current goal is to reduce our SKU count and clear out as much inventory as possible before we say goodbye to our retail roots.

Please contact orders@bagginsshoes.com if you have any questions or concerns regarding an online order.

At Baggins, we stand behind what we sell. In the rare event there is an issue with the product you received, please send us an email with photos of the defect and a description of what is wrong. We may ask you to send a picture of the product being destroyed or request you to mail the goods back. If we require you to ship the product back to us, we are happy to cover the cost of return shipping. Once this process is complete, will send a replacement product or issue store credit depending on availability.
Warranties are honored based on the wear of the shoe. We may ask for photos of the sole to ensure the product meets warranty requirements. Warranties will be accepted within 1 years of purchase with proof of purchase if they meet warranty requirements. Warranties cover manufacturer defects and not wear and tear, therefore the key measure is the wear of the bottom of the soles. If there are bald spots on the tread where the sole appears smooth rather than textured, this disqualifies the shoes for warranty despite the length of time you have had the purchase. Baggins reserves the right to refuse a warranty.
All warranty claims for the following brands must be forwarded to us by July 15th, 2024. After this time, customers must reach out to the brands directly for warranty assistance. Please contact orders@bagginsshoes.com for warranty assistance. Warranty claims for Converse and Vans products will still be processed by us, as per our current policies, for the time being.

Each shoe is made to order with love by a member of our trusty staff, using a patented process at our print shop. Baggins print shop staff makes every possible effort to ensure each pair of shoes we produce is of the highest quality. Because they are made custom to order, please allow for minor imperfections with inking and layout. Please note that the digital mock ups received or pictured may show colors brighter and more vibrant, due to the nature of direct to garment printing, colours may appear faded on the actual product.
During the custom printing process, your order status may be changed from "processing" to "on hold", this is just another way for us to track orders coming and going from the printshop and to ensure we don't accidentally miss an order. "On hold" does not mean your order is being held but rather we are in the process of printing your shoes.
All corporate custom orders, to ensure delivery they must be shipped with UPS and the cost is based on the weight and dimensions of the packages. We offer shipping with or without insurance. In the event of a total loss and the customer opted for no insurance option- we will do everything in our power to locate the package however we will not reprint or replace the order.
