Return guidelines
In the interest of hygiene we are not able to accept returns of underwear unless they are in their original, unopened packaging or are faulty.
All items that you return must be in a resalable condition that are unworn, unwashed, and complete with original tags. All goods will be inspected by our returns team and any item that is in an unsuitable condition or with tags removed will not be processed and sent back to you to the original delivery address.
All returns must be made via post. Unfortunately products ordered online cannot currently be returned or exchanged in store. Products purchased in Original Penguin stores must be returned to the original place of purchase. This also includes any purchases from our retail partner stores.
It is very important that you remember to include your completed returns form with your parcel. Returns may not be processed without the returns form included.
We request that you please keep your proof of postage/return receipt, as this may be needed in the event that your return is lost or delayed.
