Standard packaging for our orders is plain and recyclable. Inside the box or padded envelope: your products are packaged in recyclable tissue paper for clothing and a reusable protective cover for coats, suits and accessories.

Gift packaging is available in various colours and sizes. The options will depend on the number of items to be packed and stocks available. Gift packaging is limited to one per order.

The gift packaging option costs €3 inc. VAT. Part of the amount raised will be donated to the GoodPlanet Foundation.
Founded in 2005 by Yann Arthus-Bertrand, the foundation aims to make ecology and humanism a central issue in order to encourage people to take concrete action for the Earth and its inhabitants.

Selecting the Gift packaging option allows you to add a personalised card to your order (excludes loyalty scheme orders and those from store stock).

Your message must comply with certain layout guidelines (max. 500 characters and 60 characters per line). When entering your message, line breaks are added automatically.
The personalised card is added when your order is prepared.

Customers signed up to the loyalty scheme and having accrued 400 points over the last 12 months will receive a free tote bag with every online purchase (excludes loyalty scheme orders and store stock).

Online exchange is available for all orders placed via the website.
Exchanges can only be made for a different size of the same item. You cannot exchange an item for an item with a different product code.

When an exchange is requested online, the stock of the item requested in exchange is not checked and the item is not reserved. Only upon receipt of the return to our warehouse, when the exchange order has been created, will we check the stock and ship the item if it is in stock or issue a refund if it is not.

For hygiene reasons, undergarments cannot be exchanged.

A given item may only be exchanged once. If, after completing the exchange, you are still not satisfied with the new item, your order will be reimbursed for the value of your original item.

Making exchanges at an A.P.C. store

Exchanges of items purchased on our website can now be done in all of our A.P.C. stores (France, Germany, Belgium, Denmark, UK, Italy, Sweden), within one month and on presentation of the corresponding invoice.

At the store, you can exchange your item for other products, for others of equal or greater value.

However, please note that items purchased on our website cannot be returned for reimbursement at A.P.C. stores.

You can subscribe to the program by visiting one of our A.P.C. stores or on the A.P.C. website. 

In stores:
If you do not already have a client account, a member of our store team will create your client account during your store visit and register you in the program. If you already have an account, the team member will add your registration to the existing account. 

On the A.P.C. website:
You can register in the program in several ways: 

- By creating your client account online. When you create it, you must confirm your registration in the program before finalizing your account.
- If you already have an account, you can subscribe by visiting the "My Account" space and clicking on the “Loyalty” tab.
- During a purchase on the website, after entering your address and the delivery choice, a loyalty pop-up appears, inviting you to register.
