Returns
We want to make sure that you're completely happy with your Hākinakina pieces and understand it can be daunting buying swimwear online. To make things a little easier if you’re unhappy with your selection or the fit is not quite right, please email us within 7 days of receiving your order to request a refund or exchange. Include the reason for return and title the subject line “Return/Exchange”.
Returned garment(s) must be in their original condition, unworn and unwashed with all tags and hygiene labels still attached.

We reserve the right to refuse a return if it does not reach our standards.

Exchanges
Exchanges are subject to availability. For domestic exchanges we will dispatch your exchanged order once via regular post at no extra charge. If multiple exchanges occur, you will be charged postage to send the exchanged items back to you.
For international exchanges, we recommend ordering the new garment(s) you wish to exchange for online and then returning the original garment(s) to be processed as a refund once received back to us. Shipping charges to send the exchanged item are the responsibility of the customer.
Sale items
Please choose carefully as we do not offer refunds or exchanges on sale items, this includes discount codes and flash sales.
