Orders, Shipping & Returns FAQ
Thank you for supporting SIMJA.
Every item we create features original artwork and is made especially for you after your order is placed. Because our products are custom-made rather than mass-produced, our ordering and returns process differs slightly from traditional retail stores.
We want you to feel confident when shopping with us, so we've answered some of our most commonly asked questions below.
Where are your products made?
SIMJA products are made to order through our trusted fulfilment partner, Printful.
Once you place an order, your item is printed, packed, and shipped specifically for you. This approach helps reduce waste and allows us to offer a wider range of designs without holding large amounts of stock.
How long will my order take?
Every SIMJA item is made especially for you after your order is placed.
Production typically takes between 2–7 business days before your order is shipped.
As SIMJA is based in New Zealand and our products are produced through our trusted fulfilment partner, I personally recommend allowing 10–20 business days from the date of purchase for your order to arrive, depending on your location and the time of year.
Many orders arrive sooner, however factors such as customs processing, courier delays, peak shopping periods, and public holidays can occasionally extend delivery times.
Once your order has been shipped, tracking information will be provided where available.
Why does delivery take longer than some online stores?
Unlike mass-produced retail products, every SIMJA item is created specifically for you after your order is placed.
This helps reduce waste, prevents overproduction, and allows us to offer a wide range of original artwork and unique designs that may not be possible through traditional retail manufacturing.
Thank you for your patience while your wearable art is being created.
Can I change or cancel my order?
Because production begins shortly after an order is received, we can only make changes or cancellations within a limited timeframe.
If you need to update your order, please contact us as soon as possible after purchase. While we will do our best to assist, we cannot guarantee changes once production has begun.
How do I choose the right size?
Please carefully review the size guide available on each product page before placing your order.
If you're unsure which size to choose, feel free to contact us before purchasing and we'll be happy to help.
Can I return an item if I ordered the wrong size?
As all SIMJA products are custom-made to order, we are unable to accept returns or exchanges for:
-
Incorrect size selection
-
Incorrect colour selection
-
Change of mind
-
Personal preference
-
Buyer remorse
Please review sizing information carefully before ordering.
What if my item arrives damaged, defective, or incorrect?

Can I return sale or discounted items?
Sale, promotional, and discounted items are subject to the same policy as all made-to-order products.
Returns and replacements are generally only available where an item is defective, damaged, incorrectly fulfilled, or lost in transit.
Will the colours look exactly the same as on my screen?
We do our best to accurately display colours and artwork.
However, colours may vary slightly between screens, devices, printers, and materials. Small colour variations are considered normal and are not regarded as manufacturing defects.
Who do I contact if I have questions?
