We want you to love your Goumi goodies as much as we do and are happy to accept a return/exchange of your items for something that better fits your family's needs. Please make sure all items are returned with tags, in the original packaging, unused, and unwashed within 30 days of the fulfillment date for US customers.
We’ve partnered with Redo Returns to allow for quick and easy returns/exchanges. You can initiate your return or exchange through the portal here.
We’ve updated our returns process!
We’re now partnering with Redo to make returns easier for you. Our standard return policy still applies — refunds have a $10 handling fee, and exchanges or store credit have a $7 handling fee to help cover shipping and restocking costs.
✨ But here’s the good news: when you purchase Checkout+ at checkout for $1.98, you'll unlock free returns + package protection on your order. It’s a simple way to give yourself peace of mind at checkout and skip the return fees later.
As a small, mama-owned company, we’re excited to finally give you an option that makes returns & delivery guarantees economically feasible! 💛
You’ll need to provide your zip code and the order number, which can be found in your original confirmation email or the packing slip that came in your package.
Please note that all returned items must be unaltered and must include all tags the item came with. If you received a defective or incorrect item, please contact us at hello@goumikids.com and we will gladly help you.
You may exchange new, unworn, and unwashed items for a different size or color of the same style/price range.
Please note that all items marked as final sale, purchased with a “sale” banner, items purchased during a flash sale, masks, and items purchased at 50% off are not eligible for returns or exchanges. Items purchased during our Black Friday Sale are final sale.
Funds will not be returned to your account until the product is received at our facility and found to be in new, unused condition. This can take up to 15 business days. Any item received that is not in new condition will not be refunded and the customer will be responsible for covering the shipping cost to send the item back to them if they choose to keep it.
-
If you received a damaged or defective product please submit a return through our return portal and select damaged item as your reason for return. We will glady help.
Product Info
-
All of our limited and seasonal collections are made in limited quantities to avoid overproduction (a leading cause of waste in the fashion industry) and are often not restocked after their initial launch. Our staples are restocked quarterly and as needed.
-
We recommend washing your goumi goodies on low or delicate with a mild detergent (if you’d like you can add in some vinegar as a natural fabric softener!) Make sure to wash your goumi with similar items. This will help prevent agitation that can occur when washing with bulkier items.
Drying on the gentle cycle/low temperature is okay. However, we recommend laying flat to dry if you’re able, as this will help your goumi last as long as possible!
Be careful with spray and wash! Make sure to read the instructions on the bottle carefully. If stain treatment is left on clothing for too long permanent stains can occur. -
The beauty of our organic cotton bamboo is its incredible softness, however, bamboo is known to fuzz a little. Although this does not make the item unusable or even less soft, there are still some ways to reduce pilling.
One way to reduce pilling is to wash without any bulk items (for example: towels, sheets, etc.). Wash on delicate and lay flat to dry. We’ve found that if washed with other bamboo items or similar fabrics pilling is less likely to occur. Washing your goodies inside out is also a great way to reduce pilling!
-
Our main fabric is a blend of 30% organic cotton and 70% eco- friendly sourced bamboo from viscose that is manufactured in a closed loop process meaning that all liquid is recycled and all solvents are captured and removed to ensure that the process is as eco-friendly as well. We are always looking for ways to be more organic in our process.
Most fabrics have an upside and downside. The bamboo, while less ideal to process, uses less water in production than a traditional cotton. All our fabrics are source tested and dyed with eco-friendly dyes. The manufacturing process is very complex and we have initiatives to introduce new fibers and fabrics that have the wonderful softness that bamboo achieves and are more organic in processing.
Please note that not all our products are vegan friendly. Some of our knit items do have a small leather tag. -
Our products are manufactured in Chengdu, China.
We have a long-standing relationship with our factory team and our team is compensated with an above fair wage. We’ve worked with the same factory team for over 8 years! They’re a family-run business with team members all from the same town and they have been producing our goods for the entire duration of our company, which is different from many other China factory situations.
We meet with them annually to brainstorm even better ways to produce our goumi goods and also to personally thank the entire team, from our directors to our sewers.
Here's a little background on why we work with China factories:
- They’re great at producing at scale with precision
- Because shipping & logistics are relatively easy from there to the US and we’re familiar with that process already from all of our years of experience
- They allow us to keep the pricing to our customers and still manage all the costs and risks that come along with building a business.
-
Variations of your items can occur when purchased from the sale section. Because these items are from older collections, designs, sizing, and dyes may have changed over time.
-
You can view our size guide here. If you have any further questions regarding sizing please reach out to us at hello@goumikids.com.
Shipping & Delivery
-
We do! We currently offer free shipping on all domestic orders over $85. The order sum must total $85 after discounts are applied, but before taxes and shipping.
-
Orders ship within 1-3 business days (this processing time is subject to change during sales, launches, or the holiday season). Keep in mind that once packages have left our facility they are then in the hands of the shipping carrier.
-
Yes, we offer international shipping! Duty charges and taxes vary from country to country and even province to province so the amounts are calculated at checkout.
The countries we ship to are Canada, Poland, New Zealand, Kuwait, United Kingdom, Australia, United Arab Emirates, India, Saudi Arabia, Mexico, Taiwan, France, Sweden, Italy, Bahrain, and Hong Kong.
-
Once your order has been shipped, goumikids will send you a shipping confirmation email and tracking number.
-
Unfortunately, we do not offer expedited shipping at this time.
-
Packages that are marked as delivered, but are “not received” are the responsibility of the customer to locate. Please check with your neighbors, next to your porch, or your back door. Your local post office can check the geotag of the delivery scan and escalate an investigation on your behalf, but goumi is not able to track down a package on our end. goumikids is not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged packages.
We offer and highly recommend Delivery Guarantee for each purchase. Delivery Guarantee will protect your package if an issue arises during transit. If you do not have Route Insurance and your package gets lost by USPS you will need to contact USPS to track down your goodies. We do not issue refunds or replacements on lost packages.
If you have any concerns once your package has been received by USPS, you may wish to open an investigation either through your local post office, or by calling the main USPS support number at 1 (800) 275-8777 (select carrier to speak to a representative.) We have found that recipient-initiated investigations are a smoother process in terms of routing the inquiry through the correct channels, so unfortunately we are not able to offer to open the investigation on your behalf.
-
Checkout + is both Free Returns AND Package Protection. It will cover the cost of a package if it gets lost, stolen, or damaged during transit. You can file a claim here:
All you will need to get started is your email address and order number. Redo will accept claims for packages that have either had 7 days since the last shipping in-transit update, or 5 days since the delivery date (but the package was not received). They will be able to provide you with a replacement order or refund.
Order Info
-
We have a very small window to cancel orders. We can cancel as long as the order has not yet been sent to the fulfillment center. Once it reaches fulfillment it cannot be canceled as they begin working on your package to get it ready to ship.
-
Unfortunately, we are unable to edit orders due to how the system works. Because of this please make sure to double check your order for correct sizing and accidental duplicates as once the order is placed changes cannot be made.
-
In most cases we are unable to change the address on an order. So please double check that your address is correct at checkout.
-
Unfortunately, we cannot combine two orders into one as we are unable to edit orders once they are placed. This would greatly slow down fulfillment and could potentially cause confusion and possibly errors during the process. Which we never want!
-
Only one discount code can be used per purchase. This also applies to rewards codes which show in the system as a discount code. Discount codes cannot be stacked with other discount codes or stacked with rewards codes.
-
An order confirmation email is sent automatically when an order is placed. After confirming that your order confirmation email did not go to your spam/junk folder and you believe you are missing it, please reach out to us at hello@goumikids.com and we will be happy to assist you.
-
We cannot make price adjustments to orders placed before or after our special sales.
