10. How should I care for my custom apparel?
All custom apparel should be washed inside out, in cold water, with like coloured items and then hung to dry. Garments should be removed from the washing machine as soon as possible after completion of the washing cycle. This will preserve the technical features, colour and print clarity and protect your other clothing items from potential running of colours and ink.
11. What happens if everything arrives and something is wrong?
If a problem, omission or miss-communication happens you should contact customer service to discuss. Most problems that occur during custom production are minor in nature, meaning that they do not impact the overall appearance or function of the garment. In most cases, we will request your understanding and offer you a coupon or retroactive discount that more than compensates you for the error. However, if the problem is of pervasive we may request that you return the goods with a discount and a full remake of your order.
Your satisfaction is very important to us and we will take all reasonable actions to provide solutions that are equal to or exceed the value of any problem that may have occurred. We appreciate your patience and understanding that short run, customer direct manufacturing is a complicated process and on occasion results may not exactly equal the customers visualization of the end product. We do however guarantee quality and reasonable customer satisfaction.
12. What is GAIA's warranty policy?
