If the order has already been shipped you can go to the FedEx tracking page and Manage Delivery to request a hold or address change instead.

SHIPPING
-
How long will it take to receive my order?
We offer free standard shipping for orders of $75+ destined within the contiguous U.S. Orders with standard shipping may take 3-5 business days to process before they are shipped. Once fulfilled, they are sent via FedEx Ground Economy which has an approximate shipping and delivery turnaround time of 5-7 business days. This means that the total turnaround time from order placement to delivery can take 8-12 business days. Free 2-day shipping for Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico is available on orders $250+. Please note shipments going to Alaska, Hawaii or Puerto Rico may take longer to arrive due to additional transit time.
International shipping times vary depending on the country of origin, but orders typically are delivered within 10-15 business days once shipped. Please note this does not include order processing time which is 3-5 business days. The total turnaround time from order placement to delivery can take 13-20 days for international orders. Shipping to Australia and New Zealand can take longer than that due to additional restrictions and processing timelines at customs.
Please note we are not responsible for any address entry errors. If you need your shipping address updated please reach out to our support team ASAP at heythere@halfdays.com or through our live chat. Once an order ships it is out of our control and address changes are no longer able to be made.
Orders are fulfilled and shipped Monday - Friday as our fulfillment center is closed on the weekends and federal holidays. Orders placed after 3 PM EST on weekdays will ship the following 2-4 business days.
Please note that processing + shipping times may vary during new product launches, high-volume seasons, and holidays. If an order is for a trip or event we recommend ordering in advance as much as possible in case there are any unexpected delays with the shipping carrier or inclement weather.
International shipping times vary depending on the country of origin but can take 10-15 business days for delivery. Some countries like Australia and Canada are experiencing delays with customs clearance backlog and inclement weather which will increase the shipping time and is out of our control.

-
Do you offer expedited shipping?
Yes! For U.S. orders we offer two expedited options via FedEx which can be added at checkout:
- Faster shipping for $30 (2-3 business days)
- Fastest shipping for $65 (1-2 business days)
The estimated delivery date at checkout is an estimate and not guaranteed as unexpected carrier delays may arise. Please take this into account especially during the winter season and order in advance as much as possible.
Please note orders with expedited shipping are still subject to processing time which is typically 1-2 business days, however, we will do our best to get your orders out ASAP. Processing + shipping times may vary based on new product launches, high-volume seasons, and holidays so please plan accordingly and order in advance as much as possible. Additionally, if delays arise due to inclement weather the expedited shipping will not be refunded as the weather is out of our control and the expedited shipping service is still being rendered. Expedited shipping is only available for U.S. orders, international orders only have one shipping option at this time.
-
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, we now ship globally! We are unable to ship to APOs at this time. If you are located in Australia, Canada, Great Britain, Mexico, or New Zealand select the country in the country selector at the bottom right hand corner of the page for the prices to show in your country's currency. The prices will be shown in USD for all other countries. International orders have duties and taxes included in your total so there are no unexpected fees upon delivery. Please note that shipping fees, duties, and taxes are non-refundable if an order/item is returned.
International order tracking may take up to 7 business days from order fulfillment to update as it needs to get received and sorted by the carrier before being exported. Once it is received it may take 24-48 hours for an update to appear on the tracking page. Some countries like Australia and Canada are experiencing delays due to customs clearance backlogs and inclement weather which will increase the shipping time and is out of our control. International service delays can be seen here. If you have any questions about your international shipment you may reach out directly to the carrier from the Need Help icon on the tracking page or send them an email at help@passportshipping.com.

-
How are duties and taxes calculated for international orders?
Duties and taxes are dynamically calculated depending on various factors: country destination, weight, dimensions, and order total. These are not fees that go to us or that we have control over. There may be additional fees for certain countries depending on certain factors. For instance, orders going to Australia or New Zealand that exceed $1,000 in local currency will be subject to an additional $150 fee. This fee is set by their respective governments and is subject to additional inspections that may lead to longer transit times. Please note duties and taxes are non-refundable even in the event of a return.
-
What is Halfdays Shipping Protection?
Once your package leaves our warehouse it is unfortunately out of our hands. Halfdays Shipping Protection is a low-cost option to cover your package in the case of theft, damage, or loss! It is automatically applied to your order at checkout, but it is always 100% your choice and easy to opt-out of. To opt-out, simply switch the toggle in cart or at checkout. We recommend shipping protection on all orders as Halfdays is not liable for lost, damaged, or stolen items if shipping protection is deselected. Please note that this does not cover address entry errors or carrier delays. It is also non-returnable and non-refundable if it is part of an order that has already been delivered as it is a service rendered.
-
Do I have to purchase Halfdays Shipping Protection?
Nope! Halfdays Shipping Protection is automatically applied to your order at checkout, but it is always 100% your choice and easy to opt-out of. Simply switch the toggle in cart or at checkout if you'd like to opt out. However, we do recommend shipping protection on all orders as Halfdays is not liable for lost, damaged, or stolen items if shipping protection is deselected.

Please note that tags must still be attached to be eligible for a return and we reserve the right to refuse returns that show signs of wear or do not meet the above criteria.

We are not responsible for any packages that do not get delivered back to us or lost in transit without a receipt showing that it was dropped off for return. If there is no proof of return and the tracking does not show it was delivered back to us you will not be refunded.
INTERNATIONAL RETURN POLICY

-
When can I expect my refund?
Once your return is received and inspected, we will notify you if your return is accepted or declined. This process can take up to 10 business days from the date your return tracking information shows delivered.
If your return is accepted, your refund will be processed and applied to the original method of payment. If your return is not accepted for any reason (i.e. tags removed, damage, stains, rips) we will reach out to notify you and send back your item.
Please note that refunds can take up to 3-5 business days to appear back on your bank account or credit card due to varying processing times of financial organizations.
-
If I used a Gift Card and a credit card for my original payment, how will I be refunded?
If you used a Gift Card and a credit card to pay for your order then your refund will also go back to your Gift Card and credit card. If you are only returning part of your order then the refund will go to your Gift Card first and any amount that was not covered by your Gift Card will go back to your credit card. Please note this is not something that we can change.
-
Can I return for store credit?
Yes, you can absolutely choose Store Credit instead of returning for a refund! The good news is if you opt for Store Credit you will receive an additional 5% bonus credit for U.S. customers. For international customers, the return shipping cost will be deducted from the Store Credit amount. This will automatically be issued to you in the form of a Gift Card via email once your return has been submitted and the tracking shows as in transit back to us. Just select Store Credit when submitting your return. Please note that Store Credit expires one year from the date it is issued and cannot be issued again if you forget to use it.
Please note that if you opt for Store Credit for a return this is not reversible. If you use the Store Credit to make another purchase and end up returning that purchase, your refund will go back to the payment used which was the Store Credit. We cannot go back and refund the actual Store Credit itself from the original return of the first order that you opted to get Store Credit for. So please be sure that you would like Store Credit instead of a refund to your original payment when making a return since this cannot be reversed or changed down the road.
-
How do I make an exchange?
Exchanges are subject to the same terms and conditions as returns. All items with original tags that have not been worn, washed, or altered can be returned for a full refund to the original method of payment or exchanged within 15 days of receiving your order for U.S. orders. For international orders, all items with original tags that have not been worn, washed, or altered can be returned for a full refund to the original method of payment or exchanged within 30 days of shipment. All items must be unworn, unwashed, unaltered, and with tags still attached to be eligible for a return or exchange and we reserve the right to refuse returns that show signs of wear or do not meet the above criteria. We ask that you take care when trying on our products. Items with make-up, deodorant, other stains, or hair are considered damaged and will not be accepted. If we do not accept a return, it will be sent back to the customer.
We highly recommend getting a receipt when dropping off your return in case the package is lost in transit en route back to us.
To make an exchange please use this link to submit an Instant Exchange. If you need assistance with a return or exchange, please contact us at heythere@halfdays.com and we'll get back to you during regular business hours (Sunday-Saturday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Mountain Time).
Exchange orders cannot be edited at any time due to system limitations, so we ask that you double check your exchange before submitting.
-
What is an Instant Exchange?
Once you initiate your return, you have the option to do an Instant Exchange! This means your exchange order will get sent without having to wait for the orignal order to be returned. There will be a $1 hold and you'll only be charged if the returning items are not returned within 28 days from return initiation. If the original order is not returned within 28 days your card will be recharged for the original amount. However, this can be refunded once the return is processed. No worries, you get sent reminders to send in your return!
-
Can I edit or cancel my exchange order?
Once an exchange has been submitted we are unable to make any edits or cancelations due to system limitations. Please keep this in mind when creating an exchange and check that you are selecting the correct size and color before submitting. If you submit an exchange and no longer need it, you are welcome to submit a return once your order is received.
-
Can I send back multiple returns in one package?
Yes, if you have initiated multiple returns and would like to send it all back in one package you can use just one of the return labels. However, please note that you will need to include the corresponding packing slip for each return that was initiated. Even if the return authorizations were for items on the same order, if they were initiated separately we will need the packing slip for each one included in the return. This is so our returns processing team knows which return goes to which return authorization and reduces any additional processing time that may arise from any confusion.
-
If I opt to return for Store Credit, am I able to get a refund to my original form of payment instead if I change my mind after the return has already been submitted?
If you opted for Store Credit when submitting a return, we are not able to change that once it has been processed and the Store Credit Gift Card has issued to you.
-
What if I used a discount code and return the order, can I use it on a new order?
Discount codes are one time use. If you return an order that you used a discount code on, the code will not be reissued.
-
Can I return or exchange sale items?
Yes, items that are on sale can be returned within 15 days of delivery unless they are Final Sale. Please note our normal return eligibility still applies and that items must be in unworn and unaltered condition with tags still attached.
Sale items can only be exchanged for a different size, they cannot be exchanged for a different color or style since the sale only applies to certain colors and products. Not to worry, you can still submit a return for a refund or Store Credit and use that towards purchasing a different item.
Final Sale items are not returnable or exchangeable at any time.
WARRANTY
-
Do you have a warranty on your products?
All of our products are covered against manufacturing defects by a 365-day warranty (from date of purchase) as long as they are original, unaltered, and unmodified. Defects in materials and workmanship will be replaced at the discretion of the Halfdays team. However, depending on the situation, condition of the product, and current inventory we cannot guarantee a replacement. Please note that if we do offer to replace an item, it will be for the same item/size/color unless it is out of stock. An exact replacement may not be possible depending on current colors and styles available. Our colors are subject to change like any other apparel and may not be available at the time of replacement. If this is the case, we will offer to replace with another available color. If you got a matching set, we will only replace the damaged item. This warranty does not cover incidental damages, improper care, negligence, normal wear, and tear, or the natural breakdown of colors and materials over an extended time and use. Final sale items or items purchased from our Sample Sales are not covered by our warranty.
Please note that after 365 days from the date of purchase, we will not be able to replace any items. If the item was purchased through a retailer you will need to reach out directly to that retailer for a replacement or refund.
Any items purchased from a Sample Sale, in-person or online, is ineligible to be covered by our warranty as they are Final Sale and purchased as is.
To inquire about a replacement please reach out to heythere@halfdays.com with your order number, photos of the product issue, and an explanation of the situation. See below for more information and exclusions on our warranty.
-
What is and is not covered under the warranty?
All of our products are covered by a 365-day warranty (from date of purchase) for manufacturing defects as long as they are original, unaltered, and unmodified. All replacements will be made at Halfday’s discretion. This warranty does not cover incidental damages, improper care, negligence, normal wear, and tear, or the natural breakdown of colors and materials over an extended time and use.
Some things that are not covered include:
- Stains from spilled liquids or food i.e. coffee, drinks, chili, your favorite snack
- Cuts at the bottom of pant legs from skis
- Cosmetic stains such as dirt stains from falling that do not affect the functionality of the garment
- Reasonable wear and tear from impacting trees, rocks, skis, icy parking lots, or other sharp objects.
This is not an exhaustive list and we reserve the right to refuse a return if the damage is determined to not be due to a defect. If you are unsure if something is covered, please reach out to us and we’d be happy to help.
Damaged/Defective items must be sent back to Halfdays via a prepaid label in order to receive a refund or replacement. We ask that damaged items are returned so that our team can inspect the items to identify the cause of the defects. This helps us make improvements for future products!
-
Do you have a repair service for rips and/or tears?
While we do not currently have a repair service, we are in the process of developing potential systems for repairs, upcycling, and reuse for damaged products. In the meantime, please let us know if your Halfdays products have any manufacturing or workmanship defects within 365 days of purchase and we will work with you to replace your item if possible. We are also continuously working to improve our quality, sizing, and fit. If you have any feedback please let us know!
PRODUCT CARE
-
Washing Instructions
Always check the care instructions on the inside of your Halfdays garment for specific information on how to properly take care of your gear. We’ve found that these tips can help extend the life of your garment and reduce environmental impact.
-
Gear Specific Aftercare Detergent
We recommend using a detergent that is made for technical outerwear as it can help your products last. Other detergents can leave residues that will affect the performance of the gear over time. If you are using a non gear specific detergent, it is advised to use a second rinse cycle to help remove any residual soap that may be left on the garment.
Our recommended gear specific detergent is Nikwax® for all of your cleaning and rewaterproofing needs.
-
Fabric Softeners and Dryer Sheets
We do not recommend using fabric softeners or dryer sheets due to the waxy agents they leave behind. This residue can impair moisture wicking, quick dry, and odor repellent fabrics as well as inhibit the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating on your outerwear from performing its job of keeping you dry!
-
Dry Cleaning
We do not recommend dry cleaning your gear as it can affect the performance of the product. More importantly, the EPA estimates that 85% of the dry cleaners in America use perchloroethylene, or “perc,” to clean garments and textile products. This chemical solvent has significant human and environmental risks. We care about clean clothes but we care more about the environment.
-
Puffer Jackets
Becuse of the construction of these jackets, we recommend spot cleaning only as they can retain water in the wash which can damage the garment. If you need help with a pesky stain, we advise you to send your jacket to our trusted gear washing partner for help!
-
Base Layers
Wash on delicate with like colors and fabrics. Hang to dry.
