HOW LONG DOES SHIPPING TAKE?

MADE TO ORDER

Items are made in house by one person so orders may take up to one working week to dispatch. You will receive an automated email update once your order has shipped. If you have not, don't hesitate to reach out to get your tracking information.

PREMADE ITEMS

Items will take 1-3 working days to be processed and shipped out. If you have ordered a made to order piece along with a premade piece, your order will ship out when the made to order garment is finished unless otherwise specified. You will receive an automated email update once your order has been dispatched. If you have not, don't hesitate to reach out to receive your tracking information.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING

Orders are shipped via Canada Post/UPS with tracking included then passed onto your country's postal service.

WHAT DOES BIODEGRADEABLE MEAN? 

Items made with hemp fabric will not magically disintegrate in the wash. Instead, with proper care, items hemp clothing can actually last longer than regular synthetic garments. They can last as long as any other garment and, when finally disposed of, can naturally degrade unlike other fabrics with polyester etc. so do not worry! 

HOW DO I CARE FOR MY GARMENT?

It is best recommended to handwash your items in cold soapy water or machine wash (preferably in a laundry bag or inside a pillowcase) on cold wash to preserve the colors and leave to air dry. Do not machine dry.
