Activewear often needs a movement test, but a retailer may limit returns once tags are removed or an item has been worn outdoors.

Read the condition rules

Check the return window, hygiene restrictions and whether the product must keep its packaging or tags. Verify whether the refund is cash or store credit.

Try it on thoughtfully

Use a clean indoor surface and check squat coverage, seams and waistband movement. Stop before an activity that would make the item ineligible for return.

Count return costs

Delivery and return shipping can change the value of a sale price. Compare the total cost of keeping or returning the item before ordering several options.

Details and policies can change. Check the current terms with the seller or provider before deciding.
