Delivery

All Aletheia garments are made-to-order and shipping times will vary depending on the complexity of customisations and/or special fabrics associated with the order. The current lead time for an order is about 4 weeks or less for dispatch. Due to the affects of COVID on delivery systems around the world, once posted, Aletheia cannot guarantee delivery times. Aletheia Apparel packaging is compostable and re-usable.
Your order may be required to pay customs and import duties upon arrival of the goods into your country. Aletheia Apparel is not responsible for any taxes or duties the customs office may charge you, and payment is necessary to release your order from customs. Please check your local customs office for more information as customs policies and import duties vary from country to country.
