FAQ
Shipping, returns, sizing, and everything in between. If your question isn't answered here, email us and we'll sort it out.
Shipping and delivery
How long will my order take to arrive?
We process orders within 2–5 business days. After that, domestic delivery usually takes 1–8 business days, and international orders take 1–20 business days depending on where you are.
How much does shipping cost?
Shipping is free to select destinations. Your exact shipping cost is calculated at checkout once you enter your address.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes — we ship to most countries worldwide, with a few exceptions due to legal or carrier limitations.
We can't currently ship to:
- Russia, Belarus, Cuba, Iran, Syria, North Korea, and Venezuela
- The Gaza Strip
- Parts of Ukraine, including Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk
Shipping to the rest of Ukraine is severely limited, and Kosovo ships only from Latvia. These restrictions can change.
Will I have to pay customs or duties?
Possibly. International customers may be responsible for customs fees or import duties charged by their own country. These aren't included in your order total at checkout.
How do I track my order?
You'll get a tracking link by email as soon as your order ships. You can also track it anytime by logging into your account.

What's your return policy?
We accept returns within 30 days of delivery on unworn, unwashed items with the tags still attached. Full details are on our refund policy page.
How do I start a return?
Email us at dontstopsmilingapparel@gmail.com with your order number, or start a return from your account page, and we'll send you the next steps.
Do you offer exchanges?

Are final sale items returnable?
No. Sale and clearance items marked "Final Sale" aren't eligible for return or exchange.
Sizing and fit
How do I know what size to order?
Check the size chart on each product page for the most accurate fit before ordering. If you're between sizes, we recommend sizing up.
What if my item doesn't fit?
No worries you can return it within 30 days, as long as it's unworn and unwashed with tags attached. See the returns section above.

Our brand
What does "Don't Stop Smiling" mean?
It's a refusal to let hardship, cynicism, or bad days become your default state. It isn't toxic positivity not "everything is fine" it's a practice: choosing warmth and resilience as a repeated act, not a mood you wait for.
The phrase works because it's a command, not a description. It assumes you will face reasons to stop, and tells you not to.
