Return & Exchanges Policy

Returning something? :)

TSL will gladly accept returns of items purchased on our website and items purchased from our stores or from our website. Items must be in their original condition (and in original undamaged packaging) and must not be worn, used, altered or washed.

A return or exchange needs to be logged within 14 days of receipt of purchase – we’ll credit your original form of payment. If the order total was less than R4000, we’ll credit your original form of payment EXCLUDING the shipping cost (shipping costs are non-refundable).

If the purchase is a gift and you wish to extend the return period slightly, please let us know upon purchase and we will make a special note on your receipt.

  • For website orders: In order to obtain a purchase price refund, please provide a collection address for TSL and we will arrange for a courier to collect your product(s) (at TSL’s cost, for orders over R4,000).

If the incorrect product is delivered to you by mistake (i.e. it is not the product you purchased), please do not remove the product from its original packaging or try the product on at all. Please promptly contact TSL at customercare@thatshoelady.com, so that we can resolve the mistake by arranging to:

  • collect such product from you,
  • receive the product back in good condition,
  • and consequently deliver the correct product to you as quickly as possible.

Items may be exchanged for new stock (within 14 days of receipt of purchase) that was previously not on the website at time of original purchase, but all additional shipping costs are to be paid by the customer.

Orders cannot be cancelled once they are in the ‘processing’ status.

Should you choose to return your item to one of our stores, please be advised that this will still need to be processed and cleared through our online team, however you may log the return in-store and allow for a minimum of 48hrs to receive feedback via your chosen contact method.
