Returns and Refunds
1. Returns Policy
We have made every effort to display as accurately as possible the colors of our products that appear on the Brooks Brothers Online Store. However, as computer monitors vary, we cannot guarantee that your monitor's display of any color will be completely accurate.
All items are quality controlled and checked for any faults before they are dispatched to customers.
Should you receive an item that is not in perfect condition please contact us immediately.
Please send all items you wish to return from an order in the same shipment to ensure your return is processed as quickly as possible.
Items should be returned in their original packaging to ensure they are adequately protected in transit. Shoe boxes should also be protected as they are considered part of the product, and your return may not be accepted if the box is damaged.
2. How to process a return
If you are a customer based in the EU, you have the right to cancel your order with us under the Consumer Protection Distance Selling Regulations 2000 (DSRs). Alternatively, you may prefer to return items using our free returns and exchanges collection service.
Returning items using our free collection service
As an alternative to using your rights under the DSRs, you may prefer to return items using our free returns and exchanges collection service. Making a return or exchange is easy using our free collection service.
If for whatever reason you are unsatisfied with your purchase, make sure you request your Return Authorization Number (RAN) number within 14 days of receiving your order and return the items within 14 days of receiving your RAN number.
To request your RAN, sign into your account and in the 'Orders' section, identify the order containing the item (s) you would like to return and click on the 'Return Product' button.If you have placed an order but have not yet registered, CLICK HERE to request your RAN.
On the Return Authorization Request section, fill in all the requested details and select the item(s) you would like to return and choose the reason why you want to send your item(s) back. If an item is faulty, please provide details why. Then click on the 'Send Return Authorization Request' button.
Refunds can only be done on your credit card or on your bank account. To request a refund in the case you chose Cash on Delivery, it is necessary to have a bank account: refunds with this payment method can only be issued through Wire Transfer to a Bank Account.
Check the box to agree with our Return Policy. You will then receive an email containing your RAN number which is valid for the next 14 days within which you can send your unwanted item(s) back to us.
To process your return you will have to contact UPS directly and schedule your package pick-up. Click here to locate your nearest UPS branch and schedule a time. If you are in Italy you can return your order with Poste Italiane.
Attach the pre-printed Return sticker (sent to you with the order) on the package you are sending back. If you do not find the pre-printed label inside your order, you may ask UPS to bring a ‘Waybill' at the moment of the pickup. Fill in the ‘Waybill' with the following details:

Customers from outside the EU should fill in 5 copies of the Returns Proforma invoice with item descriptions and unit values.

Cancelling your order under the Distance Selling Regulations
If you are based in the EU under the Consumer Protection Distance Selling Regulations 2000 (DSRs), you have the right to cancel your order with us, provided you give us written notice within 14 (fourteen) working days of receipt.
You must notify Customer Service in writing of your wish to cancel the contract for your entire order under the DSRs within 14 (fourteen) working days of receiving your items. Either email customerservice@Brooks Brothers.com or write to us at:
On receipt of your notice of contract cancellation, Customer Service will email you a Return Authorization Number (RAN) number. Please complete this on the Returns Proforma Invoice that you received with your order, and include it with your return so we can process your refund promptly. In the case you have lost the Return Proforma Invoice, download it using the link you find on the Return Authorization email you received from our Customer Service or download it here.
We recommend that you insure the return shipment as you are under a duty to take reasonable care of the goods and will be liable for damage to them until we receive them at our warehouse. We also recommend that you use a secure, trackable means to return your order to us, and that you retain proof of sending, in the case of a dispute.
Please note that you must cover the cost of the return shipment, as our free collection service does not apply to orders cancelled under the Distance Selling Regulations.
All items must be returned unused, in their original condition and from the country that the order was delivered to. We will refund the full value of your order, excluding shipping costs, within 30 days of receiving your notice of contract cancellation. If we do not receive the cancelled order, we will arrange to have it collected from you at your cost.
Please note that you may only use your right to cancel the order under the DSRs if you give us formal written notice of cancellation within 14 (fourteen) working days of receiving the order, as described above.
Additional returns information
We cannot accommodate exchanges at this time.
Send your return from the same Country in which you've placed your order. We will not be able to accept returns from different countries.
Returns which do not respect the conditions above or with missing or incomplete Customs documentation will be refused and returned to the Shipper.
Your return package will be accepted within 7 working days from the delivery date at our warehouse.
3. Receiving a refund
After our warehouse has received your return and verified that all of the conditions have been met, you will be refund within 30 days.
Your refund will be credited to the original purchaser's credit card or on the bank account you provided (in case you selected C.O.D. payment) and will not include shipping costs for faulty items or for orders cancelled under the DSRs only. Shipping costs will not be refunded for items returned using our free collection service.
If your order has been sent to a destination within the EU, all sales taxes (VAT) will be refunded. Outside the EU, customs duties and sales taxes are non-refundable through the Brooks Brothers Online Store. However, you may be able to recover these by contacting your local customs bureau directly. As this may not be available for all countries, we recommend that you hire a customs broker if you wish to claim back duties on returned merchandise.
Please note credit card refunds may take up to 10 business days for your bank to complete, depending on their processing time. This can vary greatly between card issuers, and unfortunately, we are unable to influence this.
