ALDO gives you 30 days to return unworn shoes with a receipt, and while in-store returns are always free, mailing a return to the online warehouse costs a flat $5.95 per order.
In-Store Returns Are Free, Online Returns Aren't
ALDO's official policy draws a clear line between the two return methods: bringing an item back to a physical store is always free, but shipping a return to the online warehouse carries a flat $5.95 fee per order. Online exchanges also aren't offered at all — if you want to exchange for a different size or color, that has to happen in person at a store.
