In-Stock Items
Most orders for items currently in stock begin the order process as soon as your online purchase is completed. Your in-stock item will be shipped once the item is located in stock, your payment is approved and the receiving addresses are verified. You will not be charged for any item until it is shipped to you.
Back-Ordered or Pre-Ordered Items
Back-ordered or preordered items are items that are not yet in stock, but available for advanced purchase on our site. Such an item will be processed for shipment once it is in stock. You will be notified of the status of your back-ordered item via email. You will not be charged for any item until it is shipped to you.
Tracking numbers are applied to orders once they are processed for pick-up by the shipping carrier. They are included in your shipping status email. However, it may take additional time before the package is checked into the carrier’s tracking system. That means even though your package has already shipped from our warehouse and is on its way to you, the carrier may not be able to provide any information about your package.
Currently, Kola Project is only available in the UK. Our stores follow a decentralized supply chain which is important for the circular shopping experience. International shipping can disrupt this process.
However, the good news is we plan to expand to the rest of Europe soon.
If you have concerns regarding the whereabouts of your order, the first thing to do is consult our delivery guidelines (detailed above).
If the estimated arrival date, based on the above guidelines, has elapsed, then depending on your chosen delivery method, we advise the following course of action: use UPS’ online tracking facility to ascertain the location of your parcel. If there’s a problem with delivery, it will be clearly stated on the site.
If, however, you’re still unable to locate your goods, please contact us making sure to state your unique order reference clearly.
We want all of our orders to reach their destinations in perfect condition. If your order arrives damaged, please email photographs as soon as possible – including details of any leaks, breakages or signs that the outer parcel has been tampered with. Please retain the product and packaging until the issue has been resolved.
Please send relevant images to help@kolaproject.com so we can arrange prompt dispatch of a duplicate item if necessary.
Our warehouse team are incredibly conscientious but occasionally mistakes do happen. If an item is missing (and you weren’t made aware of a stock shortage) or you’ve received something other than what you were expecting, please contact us with any issues as soon as possible; attaching photographs if relevant.
For missing items, we will verify with the warehouse and arrange dispatch of the relevant product as quickly as we possibly can.
If we’ve sent you a product in error, we ask that you contact us with a photograph showing what you’ve received (if possible) so we can make the appropriate arrangements.
If you’re not absolutely delighted with a Kola Project purchase, we make it easy for you to return it for free (no additional postage or insurance required). Go to our Returns Centre and submit a returns request. Returns request will generate a UPS return label which you can attach to the package to return it to us.
We accept unused products with the receipt and original tags attached within 30 days of purchase. Refunds will be issued in the same tender as the purchase. Please note, processing of online returns may take up to five business days. Depending on your credit card company, the credit should appear on your statement within two billing cycles.
For merchandise returned 30 days after the invoice date, a credit will be issued in the form of a Kola Points as a part of the Unlimited Buyback Program.
To reduce waste, we do not include return labels by default. Please use the Returns Centre to request a return label. You can print it at home, or we can mail it to you (please send us a message to request a return label via mail) . Attach the return label to your package and drop it off anywhere the UPS mail picks up. You can find the location and details of all available UPS collection points here.
You can also arrange a UPS collection by contacting us. For your records, please record the UPS tracking number found on your shipping label. This number will allow you to track the progress of your return within the UPS network.

London W11 4SY

*Please note that if the return is not made using one of our labels, we do not assume responsibility if it is lost in transit. Please use a trackable and insured shipping method.
Please contact us. Unfortunately, normal wear and tear would not warrant a free replacement or a full refund but if it is deemed a manufacturing defect or unreasonable damage, we will provide you with a solution.
Any items damaged due to normal wear and tear will be a part of our Unlimited Buyback Program.
We will make every effort to accommodate an exchange request. However, our ability to process is based on product availability, which is not always guaranteed. An exchange is processed like a return and reissued as a new order. You’ll receive a credit for the items you’re sending back and a separate charge for the exchange order placed.
Price Adjustments – We are pleased to offer our customers a one-time price adjustment on the first markdown of full-price merchandise within 14 days of the original order dates.

Kola Points are our free rewards points that are offered for your buyback products. Kola Points accumulate and never expire. You can redeem them for your future purchases.
Whenever you send us an item back via the Return and Reuse program you get Kola Points equal to the item’s buyback value. £1 = 100 Kola Points so if your items buyback value is £60.50 you’ll get 6050 Kola Points. We may offer bonus points events from time to time and in that circumstance the bonus points offer would apply. Separate terms and conditions will apply to each bonus points offer.
Once you have logged into your online Kola Project account, you will be able to access all the available Kola Points on your profile. During the checkout process, any available Kola Points will be visible for you to apply to your order. You can use Kola Points to fully or partially cover your order.
