Returns and Exchanges
We craft each ZEN & ZEN item with the utmost care and are confident you will adore your purchase! However, if for any reason you are not satisfied, we are happy to assist you with a return for a refund or a one-time exchange for a different size or colour.
All returns and exchanges are subject to the following conditions.
At this time, we are unable to process exchanges or returns for international orders. We are actively working to build a seamless international returns service and hope to offer this flexibility in the near future.

The Return Process
Step 1: Confirmation & Courier Pickup

Important: To ensure a successful pickup by our courier, Please carry out either of the following two options:
1. Replace the original label with a freshly-printed return label, or
2. Write the tracking number (found under the bar code of your return label) only on the original shipping label attached to your parcel.
Kindly Note on Packaging Integrity:
As per our Eligibility requirements, all returns must be in their original, unaltered packaging (including the outer box) to be accepted. Therefore, we must kindly ask that you do not write directly on the packaging box itself, as any markings, tape, or damage to the external packaging would render the item ineligible for a refund or exchange.
