3. Getting the Size Right
- Check their current jacket: compare its chest and length with our size guide.
- Between sizes? Go one size up so it fits over a hoodie.
- Not sure at all? Choose a ready-made jacket. Ready-made jackets can be returned within 30 days, while custom jackets can't be returned for a change of mind.
4. Gift Tips: Duties, Returns and the Holiday Sale
- Free US shipping on every order, with no minimum.
- Import duties on custom jackets: custom jackets are imported into the US, so customs may charge duties, which the carrier collects before delivery. To avoid surprising the recipient, ship the gift to yourself.
- Ready-made jackets ship within the US, so there are no import duties.
- Holiday sale: 25% off everything until December 31.
