Tracking

Once your items are shipped, you'll receive a confirmation email containing a tracking number and details of your delivery. We do our best to ensure you get your order on time, but situations out of our control sometimes happen (weather related, carrier issues, national holidays, etc).

International taxes and duties

Duties & taxes are included for Europe, US and United Kingdom orders.

For rest of the world, unfortunately there's nothing we can do about this and we hope you understand. Local guidelines apply once your purchase arrives in the country of destination and may be subject to local customs duties and/or local taxes in that country. These taxes and duties are not included with your purchase. Please check with the local authority to ascertain applicable rates as these charges are borne by you.

Returns

Sale items are final and cannot be exchanged or returned.
Our products are carefully checked for quality by our team (but we're all humans, so if we missed something please let us know). If for some reason you’re not fully satisfied with your selection, we accept returns within 14 days of delivery, however please take the time to read our returns policy as we will not accept returns that don't meet our policy requirements. Should you not comply with our returns guidelines, unfortunately the item will be shipped back to you, and you will be liable for the shipping costs.

Our returns policy

• All tags must be attached and packaging must be in its original condition with the protective hygiene seal. For hygiene purposes, we ask that you please try on your new swimwear with underwear on over the hygiene seal in case you need to return it.
  
  
• Items should be returned new and unused. Returns that are damaged, show signs of use or altered will not be accepted and will be sent back to the customer. 
  
  
• We typically process refunds within 5 business days from the date we receive the item. The full amount of the item will be refunded in your original form of payment, however original shipping and handling charges are non-refundable unless the item is faulty. We'll notify you via email once we process your refund. Keep in mind your banking institution may require additional days to process and credit this transaction to your account.
  
  
• You may return the goods by any secure means. We do advise sending via a trackable and insured method so that in the event of theft or loss during delivery to our warehouse, the carrier can refund you.
  
  

Returning your purchase

Email us with your order number to know where to send the package to. Place the item in the original shipping box or a secure package. If you're shipping back more than one item, make sure to ship them together as it will facilitate your refund. Keep proof of shipping and tracking information.

Exchanges

Sébastien offers a one time free exchange. Exchanges are only accepted for items of same or superior value or alternatively we can offer store credit. Sale purchases are final and cannot be exchanged or refunded. Exchanged items are final sale.

Faulty goods

We're very rigorous with quality checks and aim not to send out faulty pieces but we're still human. You, the buyer, are responsible for inspecting the items and to let us know within a 5 days period of receiving the goods, of any fault. We classify a faulty good as an item received damaged or where a manufacturing fault occurs. If the item is damaged as a result of wear and tear that does not apply.
