This amount will be deducted from the value of goods returned and will be charged to your account before goods are refunded or re-dispatched.

For orders of personalised/customised items such as epaulettes, you should allow up to 7 working days for dispatch from receipt of your order. We treat all orders as urgent and will dispatch as soon as possible. The delivery option selected at the time of placing the order refers to the delivery service when the order is dispatched.

Returns & Order Cancellation

You have a statutory right to return or cancel your purchase. If you wish to cancel, you must tell us in writing by email or by telephone us in order to obtain a Return Merchandise Authorisation number. 

You must take reasonable care of the product, and you must return the product to us (at your own risk and cost) within 14 days of dispatch (7 days for Sale or clearance items). All goods remain your property until they are received by our Returns Department.

The product must be returned unused (except to the extent use was reasonably necessary to examine the product) and with the original packaging and sales receipt with the reverse section completed with the returns information. We will refund the purchase price of the product less the delivery charges.

You should keep evidence of having shipped your return to us such as a certificate of posting, in the unlikely event that the return is not delivered to us, you will need this information to pursue a claim with your carrier.  Niton will not accept any liability for returns not received by our Returns Department.

The following products are excluded from this legal right to cancel: Computer software that you have taken out of the sealed packaging in which they were delivered to you; products made or customised to your own specification, books and any other products that by reason of their nature, cannot be returned, such as earpieces for hygiene reasons.

Items purchased from our trade counter facility must be returned within 14 days of purchase together with the sales receipt and may be subject to a 10% restocking fee. Items will not be accepted without proof of purchase.

TV & Media Companies 

Unfortunately we are unable to accept returns for refund from TV and Media Companies.

Should you need to return an item for exchange of an alternative size, we will accommodate this request providing the goods are returned in an unused re-saleable condition and in all original packaging.

Back Orders

Some products that are currently out of stock are available to order using our Pre-Order service. We will advise you if this option is available when you place your order.

Pre-order means you can order a product immediately, and we will dispatch it to you if it comes back into stock within the next 180 days. In order to reserve stock, pre-orders will be charged to your debit/credit card or PayPal account. You can cancel your order and request a refund at any point up until dispatch. When new stock arrives, the customers who ordered first will receive their products first. An email will be sent to you when your order has been dispatched to advise you to expect your delivery.

Product Information

We have taken reasonable steps to display as accurately as possible the colours and other detailing of our products. However, the actual colours and detailing you see onscreen will depend on the equipment you use to view the products. Any information regarding sizing of products is included as a guide only. If you are in any doubt as to the size of any product you require, we recommend that you contact us prior to placing an order.

Age-Restricted Products

If you wish to order a product where a minimum age requirement is indicated, you must confirm that you are of the required age before you will be able to proceed with the order. We reserve the right not to supply any age-restricted product where we have any concern that you are below the relevant age. For certain age-restricted products, only certain specified payment methods may be allowed.

Police & Emergency Services Restricted Products

Many items within our range have been restricted by us for supply to front-line workers only as they state the word police, paramedic, prison officer, or other wording that could be used to impersonate a person in a position of trust, or for any other safety reason that Niton has deemed appropriate.

These items include garments and products with blue lights, police, prison, or paramedic wording, for example. To purchase these products, you must provide a police or military address for delivery, or verify your status by confirming your order via your work/business email address.
