Can I Return Unused Underwear? (45 Biggest Brands Reviewed)
Returning an item is a simple thing for every one of us. Sellers these days are not asking customers what’s the reason for return and just refunding the money. When it comes to underwear is not a simple story like with other products. Buying underwear comes with a risk. What if undies don’t fit right? What if you change your mind? What you should do and what you should be aware of while returning briefs?
In this article, I’ll explain what to do in various situations and I’ll review the well-known underwear brand return policies to give you a full perspective on this matter.
In the very beginning, you have to know that every customer is entitled to return a product by law. However, this law doesn’t apply to underwear that has been worn. The seller should accept a return if the item has still tags on and it hasn’t contact with the skin. To be precise, underwear can be returned if its condition is allowed to be resold.
The tricky thing for every seller is that they must determine if the briefs or boxers you’ve sent back have been worn or not. So, you might be in an unpleasant situation when you haven’t tried on the undies that you have returned, but the shop says that is not accepting a return. That’s why not always and not every brand or shop can accept your return. Most of the stores have their own return policy, especially for underwear.
I have prepared a quick list of 45 stores and brands that is selling men’s underwear and I have reviewed all returning policies for you. Have a look if you get a refund for the undies.

Here is a list of 45 shops that sell men’s underwear and a quick look at their returns policy. Worth mentioning that there are some shops and brands that are not accepting returns of underwear or are willing to accept them if they are returned in the specified condition.
Marks & Spencer
M&S in its own returns policy explained this matter quite simply. While returning underwear bought from Marks & Spencer you have to know that you are allowed to do so, but the packaging can’t be destroyed, and if applicable all tags and labels have to be attached, otherwise return will be refused. Have a look at a quote from M&S Return Policy:
You can return underwear and lingerie, so long as the product packaging hasn’t been damaged. If the item is not packaged, you can still return it, so long as the tags and hanger (if applicable) are still intact.
You can return swimwear, so long as any hygiene seals are still intact.
M&S Retuns and Refunds Policy
TK Maxx
TK Maxx doesn’t specify in their returns policy if they accept returns of underwear. What I understand from TK Maxx’s Return Policy. They are willing to accept the return of underwear if is unused and is in its original condition. Here is a quote from TK Maxx Policy:
Any item being returned must be unused, in its original condition (including packaging and labeling), and have all tags attached. If you use the item or remove/tamper with the tags, you will lose your right to return the goods under our returns policy.
Unless faulty, we are unable to offer an exchange or refund on:– perishable items
TK Maxx Returns and Refunds
– jewelry to be worn in a piercing
– items that are sealed for personal hygiene reasons where they have been unsealed
– customizable goods
Primark
Primark is quite strict in returning underwear. On their site, I have found that they are not accepting returns of underwear unless is faulty due to hygiene reasons.
Due to hygiene reasons underwear cannot be returned. Of course, if there is a manufacturing fault with your garment you are welcome to return the items back to the store for a full refund.
Primark Refund Article
Amazon
Returns on Amazon can be complicated. If you are buying directly from Amazon, you are entitled to return underwear if it is unused, and has all tags and labels attached. When it comes to third-party sellers, the return policy may vary.
Our advice for you is to check before you buy undies on Amazon. Just in case check if you are allowed to return it afterward.
Amazon on their site is informing clearly what can’t be returned and doesn’t specify on the list of underwear. Have a look:
Amazon.com doesn’t accept returns of the following items:
– Computer laptops, desktops, and Kindles more than 30 days after delivery
Amazon Help Page
– Items classified as hazardous materials or that use flammable liquids or gases (contact the manufacturer directly for service, warranty, return, and refund information)
– Any product missing the serial number or UPC
– Downloadable software products
– Online subscriptions after they have been accessed
– Gift cards (except as required by law)
– Prepaid game cards (World of Warcraft, Xbox 360 Live, Wii Points, etc.)

We have sent an email to Amazon with a request for clarification. As soon as we receive a reply, we will update this section.
Walmart
Walmart on their site doesn’t include any return policy regarding underwear. We are really surprised by that. On their site, you can find only information that every refund has to go through the verification process. My take is Walmart will decide individually if the return is accepted.
We have sent an email to Walmart with a request for clarification. As soon as we receive a reply, we will update this section.

Costco
Costco doesn’t say anything about restrictions while returning underwear. In their returns policy, there is a note that they guarantee your satisfaction with any product, and they will refund you if you’re not satisfied with your purchase. Here is a quote from Costco Wholesale Return Policy:
We guarantee your satisfaction with every product we sell and will refund your purchase price, with the following exceptions:

– Diamonds: When returning items containing a 1.00 ct diamond or larger, Costco warehouses will require additional time to verify the diamond, in which case a refund will be approved upon positive verification. This process will require approximately 2 to 5 business days.
– Cigarettes and alcohol: Costco does not accept returns on cigarettes or alcohol where prohibited by law.

GAP on their Return Policy site has included essential rules. While returning underwear or any other items bought from GAP, the customer has to return it in its original condition.

American Eagle
Returns in American Eagle seem easy but quite confusing as well. On their site in the Return Policy section, there is information that everyone is entitled to make a return even if the item was washed or tags were taken off. On the other side in the same paragraph, AE is saying that they won’t accept returned swimsuits or bikini bottoms with removed hygienic liners. There is no word about underwear and especially briefs and boxers. Here is a quote from the returns policy:
If you’re not completely happy with a purchase, just return it for a full refund. Returns with proof of purchase (receipt, invoice, order confirmation page, order details page, order emails) will be refunded in the manner in which the original purchase was made. If you don’t have proof of purchase, we’ll let you exchange or give you store credit for the current price.
American Eagle Returns
Below that in the FAQ section there is an important note:
What happens if I take the tags off or wash the item? Can I still return/exchange?
Your return/exchange will still be processed if the original tag is missing.

Let’s finally answer the main question in this article: Can I return unused underwear?
Yes, you can return unused underwear in 98% of situations. Because every single brand has similar return policies you can be confident enough to make a purchase of underwear online or in-store. However, some of the stores are not accepting returns of briefs and underwear for hygienic reasons. That’s why remember to check the return policy always before you buy.
If you are sure that you are entitled to return undies just in case, make sure that you will not damage the package, wear underwear or cut the tags and labels off. That’s the most common reason why underwear is refused for return.
