Please note we are unable to accept returns/exchanges or make price adjustments for final sale/clearance/Oopsie Bin items.
Item(s) must be deemed unworn and undamaged by Honeysuckle Swim Company in order to be accepted for exchange/return. Please do not vacuum seal as this will damage the fabric. Items for return that were purchased through vendors/retailers must be returned through the vendor directly.
We also offer exchanges and returns through local pick-up. For exchanges through porch pick-up/drop-off, please place a new order with note, "Exchange." We will follow up to confirm location for the return on hand to be dropped off to upon picking up. Please be sure to include a note with the name/order number and we’ll then process the refund as soon as possible.
VERY IMPORTANT RE: Instructions for US and International exchanges/returns:
Return must include the following, or additional customs and tax fees charged back to Honeysuckle Swim Company at import may be deducted from reimbursement:
1 - The shipping declaration needs to be completed to include a description of the goods specified as “Children’s Swimwear” or “Adult Swimwear,” its value, and the wording “Canadian Goods Returned.”
2 - A copy of the order invoice or commercial invoice accompanying the original shipment, supporting that the goods were originally shipped from Canada.
3 - A copy of the original shipment label.
The invoice and label can be included in a clear plastic bag attached to the outside of the return package. If in need of the original shipment invoice or a copy of the shipment label, please reach out to Honeysuckle Swim Company who can provide a duplicate copy for purposes of the return.

What are your shipping options?
We have several different options for shipping to best suit your circumstance. We offer carrier rates via Canada Post and USPS which include options for Standard, Expedited and Xpresspost/Priority speeds. As well, we offer an untracked, uninsured lettermail option for our Canadian customers at $5 per .5 lbs.
Please check your address carefully before submitting your order. If your order is undeliverable and returns to us due to incorrect information input at checkout, you will be invoiced for a secondary shipping charge before your order ships again. In addition, if your parcel is unclaimed and is returned to us, you will be invoiced for a secondary shipping charge. Once your order cycles back to us and we follow up on re-shipment details, the order will be held for 10 days; if the invoice remains unpaid after this timeframe, the order will be cancelled and refunded, minus a 15% re-stock fee and original shipping rate. For change requests of shipping method, there will be a small administration fee of $5.
Finally, for local residents we offer a free pickup option in Surrey at the Jax & Lennon boutique on weekdays from 9am to 4pm. If your package is not picked up within 14 days of receiving your pickup notification, we will refund your order plus a 15% restocking fee.
Please allow 1-2 business days for order processing in addition to shipping time, and 5-7 days processing time during sales. If you require your order sooner, please message us and we will do our very best to accommodate the turnaround requested.
CANADA POST ORDERS:
**Please note - There is risk involved in selecting our lettermail shipping option (Canada only), which does not come with tracking or insurance. We always recommend choosing a tracked or Expedited option, especially if you need your order by a certain date as Canada Post shipping timelines can be unpredictable. If you select this option and your package does not arrive it is not the responsibility of Honeysuckle Swim Company to replace.
As of October 28, please note that due to potential Canada Post labour disruptions, delivery timelines may vary and UPS is now available as an alternative shipping option. If you would like to modify an order placed with a Canada Post shipping method to UPS, please send us a message at customerservice@honeysuckleswimcompany.com. Follow Canada Post negotiation upates here to stay informed.
Where do you ship?
Worldwide. Contact us at customerservice@honeysuckleswimcompany.com for any additional questions about shipping.
Are there customs or international fees for shipping to outside of Canada?
Almost all international shipments are subject to additional customs fees upon import. Customs charges, duty, tax and/or VAT vary per country and are subject to individual country regulations. Please check with your local country’s import protocols for its specific information on import allowance and fees.
Please expect delays for overseas shipments. The timelines provided by Canada Post for Small Packet International Air and Small Packet International Surface shipping methods are an estimated timeline and are often delayed. These methods do not include tracking or insurance. For a method with insurance coverage and tracking, please select an applicable international shipment method provided at checkout.

In the test they take into account numerous regulated and non-regulated substances, which may be harmful to human health. In many cases the limit values for the STANDARD 100 go beyond national and international requirements.
What material is your sunwear fabric?
85% Polyester; 15% Spandex
How do you achieve the UPF 50+ factor in your fabric?
Our laboratory-tested ultraviolet protection factor is achieved through the tight weave of the fabric, not from the application of toxins.

What is the best way to care for Honeysuckle suits?
• Rinse in cold water after use, especially if you have been in a pool with chlorine and drip dry in the shade.
• Do not bleach or iron.
• If washed in a machine turn inside out, use a delicate detergent and tumble dry low, although hang drying is preferred to preserve the Spandex. We also suggest washing separately in a garment bag.
• If pressure points make contact with an abrasive or sandy surface, the fabric will show signs of distress. We recommend taking extra care if your little one is crawling on their knees or if the suit is making direct contact with the ground.
• Avoid contact with Velcro, rough or sandy surfaces, concrete, wood and anti-slip materials as the fabric may show signs of distress
• See our "Care" highlight on our Instagram page for some great tips & tricks!
