JERSEY CARE

1. Many details on the shirts and shorts are Hot-Transfer printed. We suggest you should wash them by hand because machine washing will damage the printing. If you use a machine to wash, please turn the jerseys inside out.

2. Please do not scrub the printed or stamped area too hard, and avoid exposing the jerseys to the sun for too long. When you are not wearing the jersey, please hang it up.

*Don’t put jerseys in the dryer. Turn them inside out and hang them dry.

3.If the printing starts to peel off, please lay the jersey flat, cover the letters & numbers with clean, non-stick plastic paper or a stencil, and iron it at 150°C for 7-8 seconds. If this does not work, please iron it again.

Attention: Please do not iron the printing directly.

Returns Policy
We hope that you will be happy with your purchase, but should you wish to return or exchange an item, please follow the instructions below.
Please note we are unable to accept the return of printed shirts or personalised items, unless the item is deemed to be faulty and the fault is that of HowJerseys shop. The same applies if a player leaves the club or changes his squad number during his time at the club.
Please inform us, either by email or by Whatsapp, of any item you intend to return within 14 days of taking delivery. Returns must be made within 28 days of taking delivery. All items must be returned with all outer packaging and labels intact and be in the exact condition in which they were received.
Please include a copy of your return form inside the package to allow us to identify the order as yours - you would be amazed how many people send us a shirt and absolutely nothing to help us work out whose order it is. The return form can be accessed through your account. Please also note on the invoice the reason for return and whether you are requesting a refund or an exchange.
Returns will be inspected upon receipt. If a returned item is found to be non-faulty, correct, and of the correct size, we will not accept any costs incurred in returning the item.

Can I Cancel My Order?
We're pretty quick at picking and packing your order, therefore we need to be quick to change or cancel your order once your purchase has been confirmed.
We are unable to accept the cancellation or return of your order once we have started processing your order. After placing your order, you will have a small window before we start processing the order, during which time you will be able to cancel.
If your order status has been changed to Being Picked for Dispatch, it is usually too late for us to make changes to the order as this means your order has been packed and ready for shipping.
For printed shirts, once we have begun processing the order, we are unable to accept cancellation because we start building the order immediately. Please note, our order statuses are updated in batch and not in real-time, so your shirt is often printed long before the status updates.
You are welcome to email us and we will change/cancel if we can, but we cannot guarantee it once the order has been possible.
I Have Received The Wrong Order
If we have mistakenly sent you the wrong product, we will send you the correct item at no additional cost.
