How new customers access custom fit options

We ask all new customers to get a better understanding of how our product fits before customizing. This process reduces returns and exchanges on customized products and keeps our return policy generous.

You can either start with Home try-on or order In stock, then exchange for custom fit options:

Frequently asked questions

• I’m confident in the custom fit options I need, can I start with a custom order?

  No, we’ve learned new customers get better results when they start with Home try-on or In stock.

• Can I order multiple In stock products and return the ones that don't fit?

  No, if you want to try on multiple sizes, please start with Home try-on.

How does Order for returning customers work?

If you have ever ordered from us, you can use Order for returning customers.

Order for returning customers is designed to be an easy reordering method for existing customers.

When we receive your order, we review your fit history, read your comments, and email you a list of fit options for your new order. Expect to receive the email in 1-2 days. You can confirm or make changes.
