UK DELIVERY
We have set our delivery costs to take account of average postage, packaging and associated costs with delivering such a service. These are as cost efficient as possible for our customers.
We endeavour to dispatch your order within 48 hours of being placed. This may be slightly longer for orders placed on a Friday, Weekend or Bank Holiday.
Standard Delivery
£4.95 – Normally delivered within 5 working days from dispatch on a tracked service. Delivered Monday-Saturday (excluding bank or public holidays). Addresses in remote postcodes may take 2-3 days longer than elsewhere.
FREE Standard delivery on orders of over £75 (subject to Terms and Conditions).
Next Day Delivery
£8.95 - Royal Mail Special delivery. In most cases, arrives next day if order is placed by 2pm Monday-Friday. There is no weekend dispatch so orders placed after 2pm Friday and at weekends should arrive Tuesday. Delivered 7 days (excluding bank or public holidays and limited locations on a Sunday).

Christmas UK last posting dates
We expect that 2024 will see a huge volume of online shopping in the run up to Christmas which will put extra strain on the postal service. We are not anticipating any major problems with Royal Mail at this time, however dates may be subject to change if we become aware of issues effecting delivery times.
We always advise customers to purchase as early as possible to avoid any potential delays. In the week before Christmas we would recommend Express delivery if you require your parcel for the 25th.
Orders MUST be received by 1pm
Standard Delivery: Friday 20th December 2024
Express Delivery: Friday 20th December 2024
(NB We will be closed from Friday 20th December until Monday 30th)
INTERNATIONAL DELIVERY
International Standard Delivery
We charge flat rate postal charges for our International customers regardless of the number of items or the value of the contents of your parcel. All goods are sent on a tracked service where available and may require a signature.
Europe - £12.95
Since the UK's exit from the EU, all parcels to Europe now undergo customs inspection and will have local taxes and duty applied by customs authorities in the country of delivery. These are set by each individual country and are outwith our control. You may end up paying up to 40% of your original purchase price on these extra fees. These fees have to be paid locally prior to your parcel being delivered.
Rest of the World (ROW) (Except US - see below) - £17.95
Please see “Prices” under Terms and Conditions regarding Sales Tax and Customs or Import duty. Please note that International shipments may be subject to cross-border inspections by customs authorities.
Parcels to UAE can only be sent to a PO Box address and require a mobile contact number.
International Express Delivery (GoGreen Climate neutral shipping)
Express Delivery is available to selected locations for parcels up to 2kg. This allows parcels to contain several sweaters or accessories. In the unlikely event your parcel weighs more than this, customers will be contacted and postage will be quoted on an individual basis.
We've also been finding recently that DHL have increased the locations that they class as "remote" and add large extra surcharges for this. For countries such as Australia, it appears to be most country areas. If we discover a significant surcharge, we will contact you to discuss options.
Express Delivery is a DHL service and takes 1-3 working days from dispatch dependent on location. Please note that there may be slight delays with customs clearance. Since the Covid-19 pandemic we have found lead times now tend to be longer.
We pay an additional cost on your behalf for a GoGreen Climate neutral service. Carbon emissions produced during your delivery are offset in climate protection projects.
Europe £35. Canada, Australia & New Zealand £40*. (*We shall contact you if the actual price varies significantly due to extra charges being applied to DHL). Prices will be available as an option once you enter your delivery address details at check out if available for your country. Other locations can be quoted for on an individual basis - please contact us if you would like us to look at this for you. We cannot deliver to PO Box addresses.
Customers will still be liable to pay any duties and taxes charged by customs authorities.
US Delivery (GoGreen Climate neutral shipping)
Standard parcel prices with USPS from the UK have spiralled meaning it is no longer viable for us to offer this rate of postage to our US customers. Consequently we are now only offering Express delivery with DHL to the US at a flat rate of £28. Since the pandemic, transit times have increased so this can take 1-7 working days from dispatch to arrive, dependent on location.
US Express - £28*
(*see International express delivery section above for a note about surcharges to "remote" locations). We pay an additional cost on your behalf for a GoGreen Climate neutral service. Carbon emissions produced during your delivery are offset in climate protection projects.
International Christmas last posting dates
BREXIT has significantly increased transit times to Europe due to customs clearance, as duties and tariffs must now be paid prior to delivery. Although we are not anticipating any major problems for 2024, we advise customers purchase as early as possible to avoid any potential delays.
