CHANGE OF MIND

Please choose carefully.

In accordance with our policy, the Australian Consumer Law and in view of the current administration of Wittner Retail Australia Pty Ltd (Administrators Appointed) ("Company"), we do not offer refunds for change of mind.

If you have changed your mind or selected the wrong size:

  • We are happy to offer a size exchange in the identical item of stock (i.e identical style of shoes) within 30 days of purchase, subject to the Company having sufficient stock available to facilitate an exchange ("Size Exchange"). If the Company does not have sufficient stock to facilitate a Size Exchange, no Size Exchange will be available.
  • In order to be eligible for a Size Exchange, items must be unworn, in original condition and accompanied by proof of purchase (e.g. receipt).

FAULTY OR MISDESCRIBED PRODUCTS

If your item is faulty or not as described, you are entitled to a repair, replacement (if available) or refund in line with your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.

  • For the avoidance of doubt, faulty or misdescribed products do not include issues with normal wear and tear, comfort or fit.
  • Please note that the administration of the Company may impact the speed or availability of repairs, replacements and refunds.

SALE ITEMS

Sale items, unless faulty or misdescribed, are not eligible for a refund.

  • We are happy to offer a Size Exchange within 30 days of purchase, subject to the Company having sufficient stock available to facilitate an exchange.
  • In order to be eligible for a Size Exchange, items must be unworn, in original condition and accompanied by proof of purchase (e.g. receipt).
  • Please note that the administration of the Company may impact the speed or availability of repairs, replacements and refunds.
  • Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law for faulty and misdescribed sale products remain unaffected, and remedies will be provided in accordance with the terms above.

FINAL SALE and OUTLET ITEMS

Items marked "Final Sale" or included in our Outlet range are sold as-is and may have minor blemishes or imperfections.

  • No returns, including refunds, exchanges, or store credits are offered on these items, including for incorrect size or change of mine. That is, no size exchange will be available when you purchase items marked "Final Sale".
  • If the product is deemed faulty as defined in and for the purposes of the Australian Consumer Law, we will provide a remedy in accordance with the terms above.

Returns FAQs

What’s Wittner’s return policy?

 

A receipt and/or proof of purchase is required for all refunds, which will be made in the same tender as original payment. For any store purchase made outside Australia product must be presented in the country of original purchase.

Should an item be defective or wrongly described you can choose between a refund, exchange or credit note. Quality is important to us; any minor defects will be repaired by a Wittner approved quality repairer. We cannot be responsible for fit, comfort and normal wear and tear.

All items offered in this promotion are sold as-is and are a “Final Sale”. Final sale items may vary in appearance including slight blemishes and colour fading. There are no returns or exchanges accepted unless the item is deemed faulty. No returns or exchanges can be accepted for incorrect size.

My shoe is faulty. What should I do?

 

Faulty merchandise can be returned to any Wittner store or Wittner online within a reasonable timeframe. Your item will undergo a physical assessment by a Wittner Store Manager, where they can determine whether your item is eligible for repair, replacement or refund.
