FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Because of our Direct-2-You pricing model, our prices are generally 30-50% less than what a comparable quality product would sell for in retail stores. Therefore, we typically do not do as many traditional discounts or promotions beyond the outstanding value we already offer. We do, however, always offer an opportunity to get SHRED DOG gear at discounted prices and that is by pre-ordering new styles. 

Yes, SHRED DOG Gear is co-designed with families like yours to include the optimal features and performance levels for your kids. Our design and development team has more than 20 years experience in the technical apparel and outdoor industries. And, finally, we manufacture in the same factories, using the same people and quality control processes, as other premium outdoor brands such as Arc'Teryx, Spyder, The North Face, and others.

Co-Design is our process to include families in the product development process. We do not guess at what products, features, designs, or colors families want. We create projects that allow parents and kids to vote for the products they want, and how they want them to be made. We then take the most popular product designs into production. See here for more about how our products are Co-Designed With You.

You will find that SHRED DOG gear is more waterproof than almost every other comparable product on the market.  Most brands use fabrics with a 10k or lower waterproofness rating, whereas we use 15k.  For more on what those numbers mean, see this blog post: Deciphering Waterproof/Breathability Ratings. We also fully seal every seam vs just some of the seams like most other kids' brands. 

Of course! We would love to hear from you. If you sign up for our mailing list, you will be invited to all of our Co-Design Projects to formally weigh in on our designs. And in the meantime (or any time), you can reach us at info@shreddog.com.

It's been relatively helpful that other brands provide a seam in the hem that can be ripped and the sleeve or pant leg to extend 1.5 to 2 inches to accommodate growth. But, what about hand-me-downs to a younger sibling when that seam can't be replaced?

We found a better way with what we call our Adjust-a-Fit™ system. With Adjust-a-Fit, an industry first, you can lengthen AND shorten the sleeves and pant legs for a growing child, hand-me-downs, or simply a more custom fit.

All SHRED DOG jackets and pants with the Adjust-a-Fit system ship with the sleeves and pant legs fully extended so out of the package will be 1.5 inches longer than similar sizes from other brands. 

Because a child's age does not always equate to a particular size, the best way to ensure the correct fit is to use our detailed Size Guides and measure before placing your order.

For most families, one size up from the child's age is typical (e.g. a 3 year old may wear our size 4, an 8 or 9 year old may wear our size 10/Medium).

No, not at this time. We only sell SHRED DOG products directly to you through our website, eliminating the markup associated with selling through traditional retailers that would roughly double the price of all of our products. Please refer to our Size Guides to get the right fit before ordering and we do offer a no-hassle Returns/Exchanges policy should anything not be to your complete satisfaction.

Orders for in stock items will be shipped from our warehouse in 1-2 days. The vast majority of orders received before 12pm PST will ship out within 1 business day. 

USPS First Class Packages will take 3 business days to reach the majority of the US. If you need the product(s) sooner, you can upgrade to USPS Priority Mail (2 business days) or USPS Priority Mail Express (1 business day) or one of our UPS options. International shipping times via DHL will vary.

Currently we ship to addresses in North America (US and Canada), Europe, South America, and Japan. 

Regarding international orders, we understand that shipping costs are high (we do not have a warehouse outside of the US at this time) but, depending on the size of the order, our no retail markup pricing may still result in a high-performance purchase that costs less than an equivalent alternative even with shipping. 

Also, please note that for customers outside of the US, we do not charge GST, HST, or PST (Canada) or any VAT or other country-specific taxes at the time of the transaction. Any taxes required are the responsibility of the customer at this time. 

By default, we do not offer free shipping. Most brands either embed the shipping costs in the price of their products, charge for free shipping packages like Amazon Prime, or simply do promotions for free shipping (one-time offer, free on orders above a certain transaction amount, etc).

However, we do offer free shipping on all pre-orders and on all orders over $50 to U.S. and Canada addresses..

We stand behind our products and want you to be 100% satisfied with your purchase.

If you are not completely satisfied, you can return your item(s) within 30 days of the original purchase date for an exchange or refund if the item(s) are unworn with the original tags attached.
