Usually an item is in stock when the size appears in the drop down box.It does, however, happen that items go out of stock due to popular demand on a particular day. However, you will be notified immediately should an item no longer be available when your order is being processed.

What happens to my payment if an item is out of stock at the Online Store?

We will firstly send a request to source the item from a store. If the stores are unable to supply us with the item, you will have the choice of either an alternative item (ie. The same style but a different color), or a voucher to the full value of the product that is out of stock which you can then use for a purchase to the same value of the item that is no longer available.Should you, however, not be happy with any of these options, we will proceed with a refund of the total paid for the item that is out of stock in the same method your payment was received, ie. Credit card or bank transfer.
