Please note that Product replacements are not permitted. Any exchanges, even if only for a different size, must be made exclusively by returning the Product and making a new purchase.

9.3 To exercise the right of withdrawal, the Customer must inform the Seller, before the expiry of the withdrawal period, of their decision to withdraw from the Contract by means of an explicit statement.
To this end, the Customer may alternatively:
- use the digital withdrawal function (“digital withdrawal tool”) available on the Website and accessible via the “Returns and Refunds” section in the Website footer, by clicking the “Withdraw from the contract here” button. This function allows the Customer to access their personal account via a secure authentication system using an OTP (One-Time Password) sent to the email address associated with the order, and to submit the withdrawal request by selecting the relevant order and following the guided process on the Shopify platform;
- send a written notice containing their declaration of withdrawal to the email address clientservices@grifoni.com .

9.8 Returned Products must be returned in the condition in which they were received, i.e. they must be undamaged, unworn, unwashed and must have all Product labels and tags intact; the only use permitted is that reasonably necessary to try on and decide whether to keep the Product or Products. The Customer is therefore solely liable for any reduction in the value of the Product or Products resulting from use other than that reasonably necessary to try on the item(s) and decide whether to keep them.
9.9 Products may be returned from the country where the order was delivered or from one of the countries included among the shipping destinations listed in Article 7.1.
