Orders placed by 3:00 EST can normally be shipped that day. If you place an order after that time, just ask Customer Service to check on whether it can still be shipped that day.

All orders are shipped FOB Kalamazoo, Michigan. A customer bears the exclusive risk of loss or damage to the products at all times after Edwards has turned the products over to a carrier for shipment. Edwards is not responsible for delayed orders after they have left the Edwards warehouse.

Standard ground shipping times are shown in the attached map. We also can expedite deliveries for those areas outside the two-day zone by using our special service where we help underwrite the added costs of second-day air. Contact Customer Service for more details on this special service.


Can I cancel an order after it is placed?
Top

Yes, so long as it hasn’t been processed to where it crossed the shipping scale. When you need to cancel your order please call in as soon as possible so that it doesn’t get processed. Orders which have crossed the shipping scale cannot be canceled. In addition, orders which have been embroidered or have custom-made garments cannot be canceled or returned.


Can I add on to or change my order?

You can add on to an order but it will ship separately from the first order unless Customer Service can stop the first one. You can make a change to your order if the order has not been processed, otherwise you will have to place a new order.


What is your return policy?

We will gladly accept returns provided you obtain a Return Authorization (R.A.) prior to sending the garments. You can get an R.A. from Customer Service or click here to download an R.A. form. We do not charge any restocking fee and will pay for the return shipping if it was an Edward's error.

Returned garments meet the following criteria:

  • No returns will be accepted after six (6) months from invoice date.
  • All garments must be returned in same condition as shipped.
  • Any worn garment being returned for construction or fabric failure must be cleaned prior to being returned.
  • Non-returnable items (non-Edwards garments, worn, embroidered or too old) will only be returned at customer's expense.

    Returns should be sent back U.P.S. Ground or equivalent to: 4900 South 9th Street, Kalamazoo, MI 49009

    Indicate the RA# on the outside of the carton. Place the RA inside the car

    Yes, we can drop ship to any commercial address.

We are not responsible for any discrepancies on orders sent to anyone other than the invoiced account.
