How Does the Shopbop Return Policy Work? DoNotPay Knows!

In case you want to skip all the hassle, we have a solution for that as well—, and let our AI-powered app handle it.

All About the Shopbop Return Policy

Shopbop’s return policy is detailed and straightforward, so you should make sure that your item is eligible. Most products can be sent back—unless they are:

  • Final sale products
  • Worn
  • Washed
  • Altered
  • Packed in a box that’s not the original packaging

When returning footwear, the box needs to be in its original condition. You shouldn’t send the shoes in that packaging, but place them in a different one for shipping. If the shoe box is damaged or you don’t have it, Shopbop will charge a fee.

If you don’t have the original security tag or you damaged it, your return request can be rejected, or the refund can be delayed.

Note that you can’t exchange your items. Even if you want a different size, you first need to return the old product and order a new one. The same goes with goods that arrive damaged—send them back and get yourself a new item.

The company will reimburse the cost of the product only. If you paid for shipping, that amount won’t be paid back to you.

Return Deadline for U.S. Customers

Buyers who purchased their product in the U.S. have 30 days of the receipt date to make the return. If you send the item within 15 days, you won’t need to pay for the shipping.

For returns over that period—but within the 30-day limit—the company will charge you a $10 fee. You’ll get a free prepaid shipping label in both cases.

If the deadline passes, you might get store credit if Shopbop reps allow it.

Return Deadline for International Customers

If you made an order from a country outside the U.S., you need to initiate the return within 30 days. The shipping cost is yours to cover. How much you’ll have to pay depends on the country you reside in. International buyers don’t get a prepaid label.
