Our customer support team will get back to you with your return parcel details & return authorisation slip. The shoe box is just as important as the shoes themselves, so please do not alter or damage in anyway – e.g. do not attach shipping forms, tape or mark the box. Doing so can result in your return being invalid. Shoes cannot be returned for change of mind with scratched or dirty soles. We suggest you try them on for the first time on carpet to ensure they are in perfect condition. Clarks will not take responsibility for returned items not received if registered post is not used.
Refunds will automatically be processed back to the original method of payment used to make the original purchase once we have received your items. Please allow up to 5 working days for your refund to be processed. Please keep in mind your financial institute can take an extra few days to return the funds to your account.
Once a refund has been processed to your Afterpay/Zipay account, After Pay/Zip Pay will then contact you to confirm the refund amount depending on the amount of payments you have made. For example, if you have only paid 2 installments of your total order value, After Pay/Zip Pay will only refund the partial amount paid with them, and then cancel the remaining outstanding amount. This may mean that you would receive a partial refund of your total order value as only that amount was captured from your linked credit card up to the refund date.
Yes, for a change of mind you are able to return any unworn items to Clarks Parramatta retail store within 28 days of your order date. Please note that our Highpoint store closed on Feb 15th 2024.
Please make sure the shoes are unworn and unused with the original tags still attached - we are unable to accept shoes with dirty marks or damaged soles for a change of mind. We recommend you call ahead to avoid disappointment.
