Shipping costs may be added to the value of your order depending on the destination see table. Shipments to destinations outside of the European Union may be subject to additional customs charges. A ALMANDE offers free shipping on purchases over €120 to mainland Portugal. After successful payment, you will receive an email from ALMANDE confirming your purchase. At that time, your order will begin to be processed and is normally dispatched within 48 hours.

As soon as your order leaves our warehouse, you will receive an email informing you that it has been shipped and the corresponding tracking code of your shipment.

When the order arrives at the carrier's warehouse, you will receive an email with the tracking code and the expected delivery date.

If no one is present during the delivery attempt at the shipping address provided in the order, the carrier may forward the package to the responsible post office in the area or deposit the parcel in alternative locations such as parcel lockers, leaving a notification of an unsuccessful delivery attempt in your mailbox. You should then follow the carrier instructions to retrieve your parcel. If the order returns to our warehouse and a reshipment is requested, there will be a cost of €3 for re-sending the parcel (for mainland Portugal) and a cost to be calculated in the case of international shipments.
It is the Customer's responsibility to provide, at the time of purchase, a correct delivery address, where someone is always available to receive the order. Any errors of the address provided, unavailability or absence of someone to receive the delivery, which result in a new delivery by the carrier, will incur a charge of the cost related to the delivery to that location.

In situations where the initial shipping costs are free due to promotions such as the total order value exceeding 100 euros, a second delivery attempt will incur an additional charge of the shipping fee for that location.

We guarantee the shipment of your order up until it arrives at the respective country of destination, exempting us from any responsibility regarding possible customs fees or other restrictions regarding the customs clearance of the products contained in the order.
If you buy from a country outside the EU, please note that, if applicable, customs fees, VAT and handling fees in the destination country may apply and fall under the responsibility of the recipient. Values may vary depending on the destination country.

When purchasing products with printed fabric, you should bear in mind that the place where the pattern begins is unique for each piece. Due to the manufacturing process it will vary from item to item and may not correspond exactly to the image on our online store, although the pattern of the fabric is the exact same.

ALMANDE has made every effort to display the colors, textures, finishes and images of products sold on our Site as accurately as possible. Nevertheless, it is not possible to guarantee that the colour of every display used by our customers is accurate.

We do not perform confectionary fixes of items unless in a rare case where it is confirmed to be a manufacturing defect.

Every person is different, which is why ALMANDE products are designed to provide maximum consistency across a variety of styles. Style, structure, elasticity or type of materials can affect the fit and the way the product aligns to a person's body. The Customer can consult the “SIZE GUIDE”, located in the description of each product. Depending on these measurements and sizes, and taking into account the elasticity of the fabrics used in ALMANDE products, it is up to the Customer to determine which size of the item to choose.

All products produced using Lycra contain some elasticity, and there may be a variation between 1 to 2 centimeters in relation to the measurements shown in the table.

ALMANDE assumes no responsibility for choosing the size, limiting itself to disclosing the measurements of its products. Any questions you may have, we are available to advise you via our Social Networks, Chat and Customer Support.

All product descriptions or product prices are subject to change at any time without notice.

When purchasing ALMANDE products, we advise you to consult the washing instructions for the corresponding item.
In order to prolong the life of your pieces, we leave you with the following suggestions:

1. Wash items with different colors, textures and materials separately.

2. We recommend that you take extra care, especially with white, light-background, embroidered and textured pieces.

3. Always wash your garment by hand in cold water. Do not let the piece soak or keep the piece wet.

4. Dry in the shade and in a ventilated place.

5. We advise you to be careful when using items in chlorine pools. Lycra exposed to large amounts of chlorine can change colour

6. Some sunscreens, with color or minerals, tanning products and high levels of chlorine can damage your item.

7. Here are some extra tips depending on the material of the garment:

Cotton: Garments made with this fiber, due to its hygroscopicity and morphology, provide natural comfort and a pleasant touch, making it suitable for garments in contact straight with the skin. It can be washed using conventional procedures, whenever the dyeing and finishing allow it, according to the symbols and indications that appear on the label.

Linen: This natural fiber offers a comfortable feeling of freshness, is resistant, not very elastic but very absorbent, which is why it is commonly used for our summer clothes. We recommend our items to be hand washed because the material has a strong tendency to shrink and wrinkle.

8. ALMANDE is not responsible for the misuse of its items, nor for the incorrect washing of the same.
