Returns & Exchanges

We want you to be completely satisfied with your online purchase. If you are unhappy for any reason, we'll gladly accept the return of unworn/unhemmed items.

IMPORTANT

IN ORDER FOR YOUR RETURN TO BE VALID YOU MUST NOTIFY US OF YOUR INTENT TO RETURN PRIOR TO SHIPPING THE ITEM BACK. Failure to do so will risk the items being lost and your return will not be accepted (parcels from customers who did not notify us will not be accepted by the building and will be returned to you by the courier/post office). Also, note that the "ship from" address is different from the address of our return processing center, so you CANNOT ship back to the address on the shipping label of the package we sent you. If you ship to the wrong address, you will be charged a 10% (of the value of the items) retrieving fee.

To ship an item back to JAPAN BLUE JEANS WEBSTORE please:

  • Within 14 days of receiving your order, email us at japanblue-jeans@lingble.com with a description of what you want to return and your order number, and we will get back to you with return instructions.
  • Indicate on your invoice whether you are exchanging or returning the item(s).
  • For exchanges: please indicate the desired model/size. We recommend you contact customer service to place your exchange on hold so it does not sell out while we await your package. Please email us at japanblue-jeans@lingble.com or leave a message with the “Chat with Us” button found at the bottom left-hand side of the page with the order number, the item, and the size you would like on hold for the exchange.
  • Pack your item(s) and invoice into a bag
  • On the air waybill please include your invoice number and note "Return shipment to Japan."
  • All costs in relation to costs of returns/exchange shall be borne by you. Please note that the shipping fee quoted on our website for purchases under the free shipping threshold is not a reference for the actual return costs. We can also arrange for return shipping labels and pick up for you if you prefer, and we will deduct the return shipping costs from your refund amount.
  • If your final purchase amount is below the free shipping threshold after returning a product, we will deduct the original shipping costs that would have been charged from the refund. However, if you choose to be refunded via reward points/a cash coupon, we won't deduct the original shipping costs.

For a return or exchange to be valid:

  • All returned items should be in their new and original condition as you received them: with tags, unused, unwashed, unhemmed and unworn. 
  • All returns must be shipped to us with a tracking number and signature on delivery and must be received by us no later than 30 days from the date of purchase (barring any customs-related delays for returns).
  • Please email us a photo or scanned copy of the return invoice/receipt and the tracking number to japanblue-jeans@lingble.com.
  • We reserve the right to not accept returns or exchanges that do not meet the above requirements.

Refund Process:

  • If you have an account, login here.
  • You may choose to receive your refund in the original form of payment or as reward points/a cash coupon.
  • Once we receive the returned item(s), your refund will be initiated within 1-2 business days.
  • Refunds in the original form of payment may take up to 10 business days to show up on your account due to varying processing times between payment providers.  If you do not receive your refund after 10 business days, please contact customer service via [email protected] or live chat and they will gladly assist you.

ANY COSTS INCURRED (INCLUDING CUSTOMS DUTIES AND TAXES) AS A RESULT OF A FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE RETURN INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED BY US VIA EMAIL OR HEREIN, SHALL BE DEDUCTED FROM THE REFUND OR CREDIT AMOUNT.
