We keep our return policy short for a reason

Effective date: September 30, 2026

Returns & exchanges

Easy returns carry a real cost to the environment and small brands. We cover problems with your order and offer one size exchange. The full why is at the bottom of this page.

Find your fit first

Check the size guide on the product page before ordering. If you're between sizes, email localanalogteam@gmail.com and we'll help you choose.

Damaged, defective, or wrong items

If your order arrives damaged, defective, misprinted, or different from what you ordered, email us within 30 days of delivery. Include your order number and clear photos of the item and packaging. We'll replace it at no charge or refund you. Please contact us before sending anything back.

Size exchanges

If the fit isn't right, email us within 14 days of delivery. We offer one size exchange per item on unworn, unwashed gear with no signs of use. You pay return shipping. Please wait for our return authorization before sending anything. Once we receive and check the item, we'll send your new size.

Change of mind

We don't accept returns or give refunds for a change of mind or a different color. The size exchange above is the exception.

How to start

Email localanalogteam@gmail.com with your order number and what you need help with. Include photos for damaged, defective, or wrong items. We'll reply with the next steps. Don't send a return to the address on your shipping label; wait for our authorization and return instructions.

Why we keep it short

Easy, no-questions-asked returns became a familiar part of online shopping. But sending things back takes more transport, packaging, and work. Those costs matter to the environment and to small retailers.

Last we checked (these numbers change every year): the National Retail Federation projected $849.9 billion in U.S. retail returns for 2025. That's a lot of merchandise moving back through the system.

Local Analog is built on one idea: life doesn't happen on the screen. Click, buy, return, repeat keeps you shopping instead of out doing something. We'd rather make gear you choose with care, wear, and keep.

So we cover mistakes with your order, give you one fair shot at the right fit, and keep the rest simple. Buy what you'll wear. Then go outside.

Nothing in this policy takes away rights you have under applicable consumer law.
