FAQs
Pre-orders (Pay Later)
How it works
Pre-order reserves your robe from the upcoming batch. Your card is authorised and saved at checkout and we charge it shortly before dispatch. You’ll receive email updates (including a heads-up before we charge).
When am I charged?
You’ll only be charged once your robe is ready to dispatch — we’ll send you a quick reminder email a few days beforehand.
Can I cancel a pre-order?
Yes — any time before the charge via the Manage my pre-order link at no cost. After charging, our Returns Policy applies.
Change size, address or payment details
You can update your payment info via your Manage my pre-order link.
For size, embroidery or address changes, email hello@albyandloom.com.au with your order number.
PayPal/BNPL on pre-orders
Pre-orders require a card we can capture later, so some instant wallets/BNPL may be unavailable. These are offered for in-stock items when enabled.

Care
• Wash: cold–warm gentle; no fabric softener (reduces absorbency)
