Refund policy

Last updated: 13 October 2026

If something is not right, contact us. You can return an item for any reason within 30 days of delivery, and you have six months if it is faulty.

1. Cancelling within seven days

Under section 44 of the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act, you may cancel your order within seven days of receiving it, for any reason and without penalty. You pay only the direct cost of returning the goods to us, and we refund everything you paid within 30 days of your cancellation.

2. Returns within 30 days

In addition to your legal rights, we accept returns for any reason within 30 days of delivery. The item must be unworn beyond trying it on, undamaged and returned with its original packaging. You pay the return delivery cost.

This does not affect your seven day right in section 1 or your rights for faulty goods in section 3.

3. Faulty items

Under section 56 of the Consumer Protection Act, if an item is defective, unsafe, not of good quality or not fit for its ordinary purpose, you may return it within six months of delivery. You choose whether we repair it, replace it or refund you. We cover the cost of returning a faulty item.

4. What is not a fault

  • Normal wear and tear, including scratches and marks from everyday wear.
  • Damage caused by accidents, misuse or improper care.
  • Damage caused by contact with chemicals such as chlorine, perfume or cleaning products.

5. How to return an item

Email hello@apollos.co.za with your order number and the reason for your return. We will reply within one business day with instructions. Please do not send an item back before you have heard from us. For a faulty item, we will arrange the collection.

We do not offer direct exchanges. If you would like something different, return the item for a refund and place a new order.

6. Refunds

We refund to the original payment method. We process your refund once we have received and checked the returned item, and in any event within 30 days. Your bank may take a few further business days to show it.

If you cancel within seven days under section 1, we also refund any delivery charge you paid.

7. Lost or damaged parcels
