5. Returns Procedure
A. Right of Return
You have the right to cancel your purchase and return any purchased products (other than customized products) without giving any reason. This right lasts until fourteen (14) days after the day on which you (or a person indicated by you) acquires physical possession of the products. If you order multiple products and they are delivered on different days, the period during which you can cancel your purchase without giving any reason will commence on the day after you receive the last product. However, please note that this right to refund without a reason does not extend to products customized with our polo configurator or monogrammed bags or underwear.
If you wish to exchange your products, your exchange will be treated as a return, you will be refunded in accordance with this clause and you should place a new order for the replacement products.
To exercise your right to cancel, you must inform us of your decision to cancel by contacting our customer care at service.me@lacoste.com or by phone +2 0224800579 stating that you wish to exercise your right to cancel. You must submit your message before your right to cancel expires. We will contact you to schedule the pick up of your package. We invite you to reuse the packaging your order was shipped in to proceed with the return. Please return your articles in mint condition, without them being worn or washed. The sole of the shoes has to be clean and intact and the perfume's packaging still sealed. All of the packaging (plastic, boxes), accessories (glasses case), user manual have to be returned and product labels must be attached to the items as sold. You can contact our customer care service. In your account in the section ‘my orders & returns’ you will see the order number which the customer care agent will need to schedule a pick up from your address. You will get a refund as soon as our quality services receive and check your parcel. All items not complying with our return policy will be returned to you without refund.
Normally parcels are returned to us within 10 to 14 working days but on some occasions returned parcels are delayed especially at busy periods like eid or holiday seasons or depending on customs control. Please allow up to 15 working days before contacting us. It is important to note that refunds can take up to one month to be completed due to the time an inquiry with our logistics service and carrier company may take. We thank you for your understanding.

Your refund will be processed and paid no later than fourteen (14) days after we receive the returned products from you. We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the products back from you, or you have supplied evidence that you have sent the goods back (whichever is the earliest).
