PRODUCTION & SHIPPING
How long does it take to receive a my order?
In-Stock Items:
In-stock items are picked packed and shipped immediately after receiving your order has been placed, and usually arrive at your location within 4-5 business days.
Custom Items:
Overall lead time for your custom order will depend on the product, customization method being used, seasonality, and the shipping method for your delivery address.
Shipping delays & seasonality
Overall lead time for your orders may be affected by trends beyond our control, including but not limited to:
Events beyond our control:
Shipping delays due to global logistical challenges (Covid-19, extreme weather events, conflicts, labor and material shortages, etc.).
Seasonality:
From time to time, we may experience production delays due to surges in demand caused by teams and associations rushing to place orders at the last minute (i.e. right before hockey or baseball seasons start).
In both cases, we highly recommend customers order their team uniforms well ahead of schedule to avoid any issues down the road. For current lead time on orders, please feel free to contact our order processing team at info@spapparel.com.
