Refund policy
Standard Refund Policy
We have a 30-day Return/Exchange policy. This means you have 30 days after the date of delivery to request a return. Once your return is accepted, you have 14 days to ship it out. To be eligible for a return, your item must be in the same condition that you received it: unworn, unused, unwashed, and in its original packaging.
How to Start a Return: To start a return, you can contact us at Hello@wildtreeoutdoor.com or request a return through your Wildtree account. If your return is accepted, we’ll send you instructions on how and where to send your package. Items sent back to us without first requesting a return will not be accepted.
Damages and Issues: Please inspect your order upon receipt and contact us within 72 hours if the item is defective, damaged, or incorrect. To initiate a claim, you must provide clear photographic evidence. We do not issue "instant refunds" for defects. At our discretion, we will either:
- Send a replacement: If you still want the item, we will ship a replacement once the defect is verified via photo.
-
Require a return for inspection: If a refund is requested instead of a replacement, the item must be returned to us for inspection before a refund is approved.
If an item is returned as 'defective' but is found to be in standard condition upon inspection, the return will be processed as a Standard Return; in this case, a 10% restocking fee and all shipping costs will be deducted from your refund.
Please note: Items that show signs of intentional damage, improper use, or clear signs of wear do not qualify for a refund. In such cases, the return will be denied, no refund will be issued, and the item can be shipped back to the customer at their expense.
For apparel items, if there is a verified manufacturing defect or misprint, please contact us within 72 hours with photos so we can arrange for a replacement to be sent at no cost to you.
Non-Returnable & Final Sale Items: Certain items are not eligible for return or exchange:
- Apparel: All apparel (including T-shirts, hoodies, and hats) is custom-made to order via our printing partners. These items are Final Sale and cannot be returned or exchanged for sizing issues or buyer’s remorse. Please consult our size charts carefully before ordering.
- Gift Cards: All gift card purchases are Final Sale and cannot be refunded or redeemed for cash, except where required by law.
- Sale Items: Items marked as "Final Sale" or purchased during a clearance event are non-returnable.
Exchanges: The fastest way to ensure you get what you want is to request an exchange for your eligible camera gear or accessories. Once the exchange is accepted, place a separate order for the new item. We will ship your new order ASAP and refund your first order once we receive the original item back in its original condition. Please note that apparel items are excluded from our exchange policy. We do not charge a restocking fee on exchanges.
Refunds: We will notify you once we’ve received and inspected your return, and let you know if the refund was approved. If approved, you’ll be automatically refunded on your original payment method. Please remember it can take some time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund.
Shipping & Fees: Unless your item was received damaged, defective, or incorrect due to our error, you will be responsible for paying the shipping costs to return your item and a 10% restocking fee will be deducted from your refund total. If we provide a return shipping label, the cost of that label will be deducted from your refund. For all standard returns, original shipping costs are non-refundable. Full refunds (including original shipping) are only issued in instances where the return is a result of our error or a confirmed defective product. For products returned that were claimed to be damaged or incorrect but are found to be in standard condition upon inspection, Wildtree will deduct the return shipping costs and the 10% restocking fee from the total refund.
International & Undeliverable Orders: Orders returned by the postal service due to unpaid customs duties/VAT, incorrect address, not picked up from mail service, or not due to our error will be refunded for only the cost of the product minus a 10% restocking fee. Any return freight charges or brokerage fees billed to Wildtree by the carrier for refused international packages will also be deducted from the refund. Wildtree is not responsible for packages lost due to an incorrect address.
Extended Holiday Return Period
We are happy to offer an extended return period for the holiday season. For any order placed on or after November 1st, the deadline for submitting a return request is extended until January 7th.
Clarification on Return Submission: You are always guaranteed the standard 30-day window to submit a return request from your date of delivery. If your standard 30-day window falls after January 7th (e.g., for orders placed mid-December or later), your return request deadline will be the standard 30 days from the date of delivery.
Important: For return requests submitted after the standard 30 days but before the final January 7th deadline, you must Contact Us Directly to initiate the return. Our system's automated self-service return function is disabled after 30 days and will not work. To initiate a manual return request, please email us at Hello@wildtreeoutdoor.com.
In summary: Your return request must be submitted by the later of either January 7th or 30 days from your delivery date. (Note: This deadline is for requesting the return authorization. The physical item must be shipped back within 14 days after your request is approved.) All other terms, conditions, and eligibility requirements of our standard Refund Policy above apply.
