Nike Returns and Refunds

Please find details regarding the return and refund policies for Nike below. We encourage you to leave a comment regarding your experience requesting a return or refund from Nike so others can benefit from what you learned.

Online Purchases

Nike's return policy allows for returns of shoes and clothing within 30 days of the shipping date. After 30 days, shoes and clothing may only be returned if they are unworn and unwashed. Nike devices may also be returned for any reason within 30 days of purchase, and they must be in unopened packaging if they are returned beyond 30 days of purchase.

The company will allow for return of any Nike product that a customer believes contains a manufacturing error. If a product has a defect in it, then it may be returned for up to two years from the original manufacturing date. The clothing or shoes should contain a tag that reflects the manufacturing date of the product. If a customer returns clothing or shoes that does not contain this tag, then the Nike company will research the product to determine whether it can find the original manufacturing date. Apple devices may also be returned within 90 days of the original shipment date. These devices should be left in unopened packaging.

Nike gift cards may not be returned. They also may not be cancelled after they have been purchased.

After a return, a refund will show up on a credit card billing statement within one or two cycles.

Upon receiving an exchange of Air Jordan 1 Hi OG Fearless only received 1 pair of spare shoe laces. The first pair I received had 2 pair of shoe laces, white pair and a yellow pair. Would you please send the second pair of shoe laces ?

Order a Jersey on Dec. 30 and said would be received on 1/9. Actually didn't arrive until 1/18. Jersey was 2 big so I needed to do a return. Nike offered me a gift card. I called back 15 mins later to cancel gift card because I found Nike jersey at Dicks and requested the money be returned to my credit card. Nike said they would cancel and escalate this. Jersey return arrived at dock at 8:15 am on 1/22. I called to see when money would be returned to card, Nike said I had been issued a gift card. I said I called back and requested not to have gift card. I'm very disappointed that Nike didn't honor my request before receiving merchandise and processing a credit instead of a refund Policy simply states: After a return, a refund will show up on a credit card billing statement within one or two cycles. I didn't want a credit I requested a refund and Nike didn't cancel gift card. There was very little delay in call and merchandise had yet been received. I will never order online from Nike again or purchase Nike products. I don't care for Nike but, I was just trying to make my family happy with Nike product. Nike should have refunded me my money. I still purchased Nike just not from their store. I would think a company of this size would grant a refund.

Ordered on nike.com/ae while being in the UAE. Was concerned about the return but Nike assured me that I have plenty of time to make a free return and it would be very easy in case my order doesn't fit.

Order arrived, it didn't fit, I issued a return on the website. The delivery guy didn't come on the expected date and 3 days already have passed. Nike.com customer support told me that they can't do anything about it since the purchase was made outside of the US. They gave me 2 phone numbers, a toll-free one that doesn't exist and a local UAE one that belongs to a partner SunAndSandSports. I reached those guys, and guess what? I can't get a refund for my order! Only exchange is possible and "they are doing that only because I'm a Nike client"...

So here I am, trying to exchange the order that didn't fit to something else instead of getting my money back. This is the first and the last time I ordered something on Nike.com. Moreover, I am very upset with the customer service at Nike. Definitely do not recommend anyone to order online!!!

I purchased a pair of Nike Shoes and there is a crease on the top of toe that is causing a blister on the top of my toe as well as play sports by favoring the toe so my knee hurts! I bought the shoes in Wisconsin, I am now in Florida. How do I get these shoes replaced. I always like how Nike's fit. This must have just been a bum pair.

The Zipper Fell Off My Sons Backpack After A Couple Of Days Use And I Would Like To Return It For Repair Or Replacement. Can Anyone Tell Me How To Do This?

Posted by Anonymous


I have four athletic boys and by nike quite a bit, i purchased a back pack for school for one of my boys and both zippers fell off. The bag had two zippers on one of the openings and one kept getting stuck and the other wouldn't zip, it has probably been a year since i bought this bag. just disappointed in the quality of this bag. my boy only used it for a couple of months toward the end of the school year. so beginning of this he brought it to school and it lasted one week :( I normally do not make comments on things like this but maybe i just need to express my disappointment to the company about one certain product. again 4 boys ranging from age 8-16 and we have a lot of nike things that make it down the "hand me down" stage. it just sucks this back pack didn't make it.

The return policy for Nike may be TOO lenient. It really is great and easy.

I've returned many things without issue. Actually call Nike and they will help you out. Don't be like some of those on here who can't figure out how to return something.

The last four pairs of high end Nike cleats I have bought my two kids who play at an Elite level of soccer SUCK. The quality is horrible. I purchased a pair of Natural Diamond cleats for my daughter, and within a few months, the soles had started separating! I took them to a shoe repair shop, and they glued them back together and charged me $25.00....with no guarantee that the soles will stay on.

Two pairs of my sons cleats have ripped where the sole and material meet, making them unwearable.

Seriously, Nike? After paying at least $1,000 for cleats over the last few years, I can't get a cleat that lasts more than a few months?????

p.s. My daughter's Adidas are STILL GOING....THREE seasons later!!! Back to Adidas we go...for more reasons than just this. The constant AGENDA PUSHING and unpatriotic, unsportsmanlike behaviors from entitled, unpatriotic athletes that Nike embraces are enough!!!!!

I purchased online the hoodie for my son however he received exactly the same thing from his aunt so I returned it using the UPS label they included in the original package for any return. Well, after a month, the package came back to me with unknown address. How come it is unknown address if they included it in the original package. Well, I couldn't return and still have it after 6 month. Not happy with the online shopping.

as much money as i and my family spend with you. I cant return something i bought online in store. You need to either put this in writing or fire the manager that denied my return at tanger outlet in Delaware ohio. Also i bought a size 10.5 concord 11 on the snkrs app and you guys sent a size 9. Wtf. And that same store had no problem taking these back and letting an employee that i know buy them with his discount. Lol. You guys are cornballs. I could run nike better from my couch by myself better. The god of sneakers has spoken. Your stock will fall a few points due to your incredibly lengthy and stressful return tactics.

I purchased a pair of 2017 women's Nike Airmax shoes in December and by February the air pocket both shoes were deflated. I barely used them and they are now trash! Nike is not making quality products. They are charging top dollar for cheaply made crap. I will never purchase Nike shoes ever again.

I purchased a pair of 2017 Nike Air Max's in March of 2018 that were made in July of 2017 and this pass weekend the air pocket went flat. I was wondering what the return policy is for something like that. I did not buy them around where I live I purchased them at the factory store in Sanibel FL. I do not have the receipt.

Where Do I return NIKE Tennis Shoes if I purchased in Meridian, Idaho at the NIKE Store there?

Posted by Disgruntled Nike Cistomer


Nike sucks. Will not honor return because their own tag came off the shoes we returned because Velcro no longer held the shoes closed.

I have never heard of a company such as Nike being so inconsiderate to their loyal customers. I bought 160.00 sneakers july 11th and 2 weeks later there is a promo code for 20 percent off. They will not do a price adjustment or make any exceptions. Well Nike you lose because now I am returning the sneakers and instead of getting the 40 dollar credit you are getting the almost 170.00 loss in sale. No loyalty and will let everyone on social media know about this.

It is absolutely infuriating when a return is rejected and a refund is denied for wrong item that was sent from the Nike warehouse. I am so disappointed by Nike's handling of returns because they've denied my return for an item that they have sent in error. I don't understand how Nike issues a return policy and then deny a refund to a consumer even if he/she has followed and is well within the return guidelines. So much for streamlining the return process, Nike.
