I saw my order status is “On Hold” What does that mean and what should I do?

Questions Related to Products & Inventory

The shoe I want says “out of stock” Can you tell me when you’ll be getting more?
No. We are unable to predict if we can or will be able to obtain more of any item. Major shoe brands have limited manufacturing runs, and often additional inventory is not available.

I don’t see the size I need or the shoe I want. Do you have it or can you get it?
No, we’re sorry. As stated above, due to limited manufacturing runs, once an item is sold out, it is unusual to be able to obtain more inventories. All available sizes are posted to the product page and kept up to date on a daily basis. In addition, all orders are placed six months in advance of the brand’s official release date, making special orders impossible.

When will you be getting the shoe that is going to be released soon?
While orders are placed six months in advance, Sneakerworldwide.com does not have any control over what our suppliers will order and then make available to us. For this reason, we cannot provide any advance inventory information. Sneakerworldwide.com is updated daily with the latest information about available sizes and styles, and new items are posted as soon as they are received.

I ordered a pair of shoes, but they started to fall apart after I wore them a few times. What do I do?
Within 45 days on your order date, you may contact Customer Service at 1-646-529-6046 for a defective product return authorization. This authorization allows you to return the shoes, but does not guarantee acceptance of the return or a refund. Outside of the 45 days, damage is considered normal wear and tear associated with athletic shoes.


Questions Related to Returns & Exchanges

What’s your return policy?
Sneakerworldwide.com accepts returns for up to 30 days from the order date if the shoes are new and completely unworn with the original shoebox intact. Please read our full return policy and contact Customer Service for a return authorization number prior to returning the merchandise.

I want to return shoes. How do I do that?
Contact Customer Service for a return authorization number prior to returning the merchandise. Box the shoes, shoebox, and any accessories (extra laces, key chains, etc.) in a shipping box with your return authorization number and mail the shoes to the address provided on your receipt.
Please note that we cannot accept returns where the shoebox has been taped and used as a shipping box. DO NOT USE THE SHOEBOX AS THE SHIPPING BOX. ALWAYS BOX THE RETURN IN A SHIPPING BOX.

How do I make an exchange?
Exchanges are treated as new orders with Sneakerworldwide.com. You may place a new order for the desired item at the same time you receive a return authorization or you may wait until your return is received and a refund is issued before placing a new order. Please ask a representative about your options.

When should I expect to receive refund?
Returns are processed on Tuesdays and Fridays. Once Sneakerworldwide.com receives your return, we will process it and apply any applicable refund with the next available batch. Once a refund is issued, please allow 2-5 days for the money to post to your account.
