A Rush Order Fee is available at checkout, your order will be processed and ready for dispatch / collection within 3 - 4 business days from placement of order.
Our warehouse stocks thousands of products, but we are unable to hold every product in every colour and size, therefore certain items are required to be ordered in from suppliers.
Where an item will take longer than the 3 - 4 business days, our team will contact you via email.

Standard Production = 7 business days production + shipping
All standard production orders require 7 business days to process and often are dispatched ahead of schedule.

1.3 Delivery Timeframes:

We recommend you call to check that the required stock is available prior to placing your order to avoid delays.

In the event of a delay due to suplier stock availability, Create Apparel will still produce your order as quickly as possible. Please note that any delay due to stock or shipping does not warrant a refund, as we still process, print and ship your order in an expedited time frame.
