If you have Shipping Questions, please email us at:  shipping@rivertrailmercantile.com

Pre-Orders:

If the style and size shows a “ships by” date, this means the item is not in stock, but on order. Example: Size 7 – Ships by 1/30/14, means that the boots will ship out to you no later than January 30, 2014. Once the order is placed, your credit card is charged immediately. Unfortunately, paying for expedited shipping will NOT speed up production.

Ships 30-120 Days:

If the style and size shows “Ships 30-120 Days,” this means the item is not in stock, but will be on backorder. If you would like a more definitive ship date, please email us with the style and size you are interested in, and we will reach out to our manufacturer. Once the order is placed, your credit card is charged immediately. Unfortunately, paying for expedited shipping will NOT speed up production.

Clothing & Accessories

Clothing items and accessories (handbags, hats, etc) may be returned for store credit only. Refunds are not permitted. In addition, there will be a $5 processing fee deducted from the store credit for the cost of shipping. Items must return in brand new and unworn condition with all original packaging plus tags attached (if applicable).

Returns & Exchanges:

Returns and Exchanges must be received within 30 days. If you are purchasing a gift (ie Christmas / Birthday), please request an extension in the Order Comment Section, and a RiverTrail Employee will approve the request. The return period spans from the day product is received by customer until the day RiverTrail receives product back in store.

Products must be returned in the condition you received them and in the original box and/or packaging. Product must have original tags and must not have been worn, laundered, or altered from its original condition.

To Return/Exchange an item, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your account. Using the “Orders” tab in the left hand column, click the Order # you wish to Return, then click "Request Return".
  2. Please fill out all fields as to whether you are returning for refund, store credit, or exchange. If opting for exchange, please note the item number, name, and size of the product you wish to receive under the “Comments” section.
  3. Package item into original packaging (by placing the manufacturer boot box into a separate shipping box). Please include a copy of original invoice so we may better reference your return.
  4. The RiverTrail Returns Department will approve (or deny based on the terms and conditions of your purchase) your return request within 1-3 business days, and you will receive an email attachment with a Prepaid Shipping Return Label to print (applicable to domestic orders only on non discounted merchandise).
