RETURN POLICY
RETURNS, EXCHANGES & REFUND POLICY
At Agbeke Alaso-Oke, we take pride in creating thoughtfully designed garments that celebrate Nigerian heritage, craftsmanship and contemporary style. We are committed to ensuring that every customer, whether in Nigeria or abroad, is satisfied with their purchase.
Where you experience any issue with your order, please contact us promptly. This Policy sets out the circumstances and conditions under which Agbeke Alaso-Oke may accept returns, process exchanges and issue refunds.
- RETURN ELIGIBILITY
You may request a return within 14 days of receiving your order, provided that the item satisfies the conditions set out in this Policy.
To qualify for a return, the item must:
- Be unused and in its original condition;
- Be free from stains, damage, alterations or any other signs of use;
- Have all original tags and labels attached, where applicable;
- Be returned in its original packaging, where applicable; and
- Be accompanied by proof of purchase or the applicable order number.
Please note: “Unused” means an item that has not been worn or used outside the customer’s private residence and has not been worn or used for any public appearance, event, occasion, outing, photography, videography, or similar purpose. For the avoidance of doubt, an item shall not be considered unused where the customer has taken, published, posted, uploaded, transmitted, or otherwise shared any photograph or video of themselves wearing or using the item, whether on social media or by any other means.
Any item that does not satisfy these conditions may, subject to applicable law, be deemed ineligible for return, exchange or refund.
- ACCEPTABLE REASONS FOR RETURNS
- Defective or Damaged Items
Where an item arrives damaged or has a manufacturing defect, you must notify Agbeke Alaso-Oke within 7 days of receiving the order.
You may be required to provide photographs or videos reasonably demonstrating the alleged damage or defect.
Upon review and confirmation of the issue, Agbeke Alaso-Oke will arrange an appropriate resolution, which may include:
- A replacement;
- An exchange; or
- A full refund.
Where the damage or defect is attributable to Agbeke Alaso-Oke, we will bear the reasonable cost of returning the affected item.
- Incorrect Item Received
Where you receive an item different from the item ordered, you must notify Agbeke Alaso-Oke within 7 days of delivery.
We will arrange for the incorrect item to be returned and, subject to availability, will dispatch the correct item at no additional cost to you.
Where the correct item is unavailable, we may offer an alternative resolution, including a refund.
- Item Not as Described
Where the item received materially differs from its description, agreed specifications or product representation on our website, you must contact us within 7 days of receipt.
Following an assessment of the complaint, we may provide a replacement, exchange, refund or such other appropriate resolution as may be applicable.
Please note that slight variations in colour may arise from lighting, photography or differences in individual screen settings. Such variations will not, in themselves, constitute a defect or material discrepancy.
- Quality Concerns
Where you reasonably believe that an item does not meet the applicable quality expectations, you must contact us within 7 days of receiving the item.
We will assess the complaint and determine the appropriate resolution having regard to the nature and circumstances of the issue.
- Wrong Size or Fit
Where an item does not fit as expected, you must contact us within 7 days of receipt.
Subject to availability and compliance with this Policy, we may offer an exchange for another available size.
The item must be unworn and unused and must be returned with its original tags and packaging, where applicable.
Please note: Customers are responsible for providing accurate size and measurement information when placing an order. An item correctly supplied in accordance with the size selected by the customer will not ordinarily qualify for a refund solely because the customer selected an incorrect size.
Accordingly, Agbeke Alaso-Oke does not offer refunds for changes of mind, incorrect size selection or preference-based dissatisfaction, except where otherwise required by applicable law.
- MADE-TO-ORDER AND CUSTOMISED ITEMS
Customised and made-to-order items are generally non-refundable where the customer changes their mind, selects an incorrect size or is dissatisfied with a preference-based aspect of the garment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, where a customised or made-to-order item is defective, damaged, incorrectly supplied or materially different from the agreed specifications, the customer may be eligible for a refund, exchange or other appropriate resolution, subject to our assessment and applicable consumer protection laws.
Before production commences, customers are required to carefully confirm their:
- Measurements;
- Selected size;
- Colour;
- Fabric;
- Design details; and
- Other customisation requirements.
Where applicable, any specific return conditions relating to a made-to-order or customised item will be communicated to the customer before production commences.
- NON-RETURNABLE ITEMS
The following items are generally not eligible for return or refund:
- Items that have been worn, washed, altered or damaged after delivery;
- Items returned without their original tags, where applicable;
- Customised or specially altered items, except where the item is defective, damaged, incorrectly supplied or materially different from the agreed specifications;
- Items specially ordered outside our regular stock, except where otherwise agreed or where the item is defective or incorrectly supplied; and
- Items returned after the applicable return period.
Any exception to the foregoing will be considered having regard to the circumstances of the particular order and applicable consumer protection requirements.

We will notify you by email of the outcome of the assessment.

- REFUNDS
Agbeke Alaso-Oke offers refunds primarily in respect of items that are:

- Incorrectly supplied; or
- Materially different from the agreed description or specifications.
Where a refund is approved:

- The time required for the refund to reflect in your account may vary depending on your bank or payment provider.
Refunds will generally be issued in the currency in which the original payment was processed.
The amount ultimately received may vary due to exchange-rate fluctuations, currency conversion or charges imposed by banks or other financial institutions. Agbeke Alaso-Oke will not be responsible for such variations or charges.

Where you have been notified that your refund has been processed but the refund has not yet reflected in your account, you should:
- Check your bank account or payment account;
- Contact your bank or payment provider to confirm whether the refund is pending; and

Any special conditions applicable to promotional or sale items will be communicated to customers before purchase.
- APPLICABLE CONSUMER RIGHTS
This Policy is intended to set out Agbeke Alaso-Oke’s procedures and terms governing returns, exchanges and refunds.
Nothing in this Policy shall be construed as limiting, excluding or waiving any consumer right or remedy that cannot lawfully be limited, excluded or waived under applicable law.
Where the laws of a customer’s country provide mandatory rights or protections that differ from the provisions of this Policy, such mandatory rights and protections shall apply to the extent required by law.
