Please note that all mailing costs are covered by the customer.
The below described procedure must be followed:
1. Contact us via e-mail to info@cardou.com within 10 days of receiving the product explaining the reason why you wish to exchange it. The official delivery date considered, is the one indicated on the courier delivery receipt so please keep it as a reference.

Complete with all their original accessories included, undamaged with all their labels in place and in their original packaging. As far as the shoes are concerned, we recommend that you are very careful in your first trial until you decide to keep them. Start by wearing only the left shoe on a carpet so that the soles or the heels are not scratched by hard surfaces. Please note that shoes whose soles are marked will not be accepted for exchange. Wear thin stockings and do not persist in wearing them if they feel small since this will stretch and spoil their form. Once worn, avoid movements that could crease, scratch, or open the skin.
