Why is the price different online vs In-store?

We often do flash deals or additional discounts online so the prices may be different online vs in the store.  We do not price match prices online when you go into a store. All prices reflected on the website are online only. 

 

How long will it take for my order to be shipped to me?

Shipping may take 2-7 business days, depending on your address. For exact delivery times based on your postal code, please visit www.canadapost.ca/deliverytool

 

I ordered clearance items but they were cancelled, why is that?

Due to demand, we cannot always guarantee clearance items will be available. If an item you ordered is sold out, an email will be sent to you to let you know. You will also receive an email with your invoice showing the adjusted total.

Our office and warehouse operate between 9:00am and 4:00pm (Eastern Time) on weekdays. For hours of a specific store location, please visit our store locator. All business hours are subject to change.

Placing An Order

How much will I have to pay for shipping?

Shipping fees are calculated based on your destination within Canada. But, if you spend $75 or more (before taxes & after discounts) you'll receive free shipping. Please see our shipping page for more details.

 

Why was I charged twice?

Once your order has been placed, the total order amount is authorized via your method of payment. This is to reserve the funds necessary for us to invoice and complete the order. Once your order has been completed, an actual charge will take place, and the authorization will disappear.

 

How long will I have to wait for my package?

We require approximately 2-7 business days to process your order. Once your order has been processed it will be shipped to you from our warehouse. Shipping may take 2-7 business days depending on your address. Clearance items will take longer to process.

 

Why was my order canceled?

From time to time, items may become unavailable between the time your order is placed and when it is processed. We will then adjust your order total to reflect the removal of that item from your purchase and charge you the remaining amount. We understand that you might be interested in one particular item but, in order to make your purchase more cost effective, you may order multiple items. Should that one item of interest become unavailable, we will not be able to ship it to you.

 

I want to place a bulk order, why is my order being cancelled?

If you are interested in placing a bulk order please contact us directly so we can help you place the order.  Our system may flag your order as fraud otherwise. Coupon codes cannot be used on bulk orders. This is just a safety precaution to protect us from cyber fraud and resellers. At this time we are not authorized to sell to resellers.

 

Why won’t my gift card work?

Unfortunately we are unable to accept gift cards online that were purchased from one of our stores. Fortunately, if you let us know, we can create an online-use gift card for you in the same amount. Please contact us.

 

  

Additional Payment Information

Do you accept Visa Debit or Visa Gift Cards?

Yes, we accept both Visa Debit and Visa Gift Cards. However, these types of payments respond differently to authorization and captured payments online, please read more about Visa Debit and Visa Gift Cards.

 

I paid with a Visa Debit/Visa Gift Card and my order was canceled, why did you take my money and when do I get it back?

The amount authorized at the time of purchase is deducted immediately from the account holder’s account, and it may take 7-15 business days for the cancellation to show up on your Visa Gift card record and for the funds to be credited to your card and available for use. Check the balance on your card, either online or by phone, to see when your cancelled purchase transaction has been processed. Refer to the back of your card for the web site address/phone number of the financial institution that issued your card. If you are not seeing a credit take place, please contact the issuing financial institution for further investigation.

Prepaid - VISA, MASTERCARDS, GIFTCARDS
Keep the card - Any refunds will go directly back on the card and without it you will not be able to access the funds. We can only refund to the original payment method. 

 

Why was my Visa Debit or Visa Gift Card declined?

We, like some internet merchants, use fraud protection software that may decline a Visa Gift Card or Visa Debit purchase transaction.

What does Vegan mean?

Vegan products are made without the use of animal byproducts. Examples of animal byproducts are leather, wool, silk, fur, or suede. Vegan products use very close artificial materials to create the similar quality and feel to the real thing. As such, Vegan footwear is becoming a very popular and much more affordable option.
