SHIPPING

-I didn't receive my order confirmation or shipping confirmation email!
Check your spam! You should receive an email from us confirming your order and then another one when your order ships with tracking information. If you think you may have entered in your email incorrectly, or didn't receive an order confirmation for another reason, email us at hello@shoprkitekt.com, or check your customer account if you made one at checkout. 

We will try to process and ship your order within one week upon receiving it (excluding weekends, holidays, and in the event that we have a big release/restock and receive an influx of orders). Your order will be shipped USPS First Class if you're in the United States, which takes an est. 1-3 business days after being picked up by USPS. If you are outside the US, it will be sent USPS First Class International (or occasionally UPS). It will take approximately 2-4 weeks (sometimes sooner, especially Canada, and occasionally it will take longer). Please note international customers will be responsible for any duties/taxes your order may collect, R-KI-TEKT is not responsible for any extra fees.

 
-Do you ship outside the US?
Yes! We will ship anywhere that offers insurance on your order, but please be advised that you are responsible for your country's customs fees and delays. International shipping can sometimes take up to 6-8 weeks to arrive.

 
-I received a delivery notification but my package is not here!
9 times out of 10 your package will show up within a week! Once the package has left our HQ, USPS is responsible for your package. We cannot be held responsible for lost, stolen, or delayed packages. Visit their website for instructions on how to make a claim. You can also find your local post office on the USPS site, and they will have a local phone number to call (as opposed to the 800 number).

PRODUCTS

-What are your products made of?
We use consciously sourced Top grain Cowhide for our leather goods and cording on our jewelry. 

- How do I care for my leather goods?

We highly recommend treating your leather goods with care. Though the material is sturdy and durable, the surface treatment on many of products can and will show signs of wear. Especially when not handled with care. We do treat most of our leather goods with a glaze to extend the life of the pattern.   For light base leather, we recommend keeping these away from dark indigo dyes to prevent color transfer. And of course, never immerse your items in water. However a light spot treat with a damp cloth helps treat light stains.

- The color or texture of the leather doesn't look like the picture. Why?
We absolutely love the bespoke quality of our goods and a huge contributor to that is the varying textures and subtle color shifts in the hides we use. If you see a patina, pebbling or smooth patch, or even a light branding, don't fear! That means your item(s) are as individual as you!!

-Do you have vegan options?
We are working to provide vegan options in the future, but currently we do not have any vegan leather products.

 

-How do I care for my wooden pieces?
The majority of our pieces come glazed. however there are a few styles that include matte beads.  For these, you can treat light scuffs with a damp cloth. 

These pieces should be worn delicately. Harsh tugging can cause irreparable damage.
