Easy Exchanges or Returns

AB accessories are designed to give you or your child the performance, comfort, and style for taking part in daily activities. Should you need to exchange a product, AB’s Exchange Policy is outlined below:

  • If the accessory product is unused, unopened, and within 90 days of the date of purchase, AB will exchange the accessory product for the same product or a similar product at the same price. You may also choose a refund (minus shipping costs). AB does not charge a restocking fee.
  • If the accessory product is unused, unopened, and returned to AB, a full refund will be issued, minus the cost of courier shipping.
  • Unfortunately, AB cannot exchange or refund any accessory product that is opened, used or outside of the 90-day return policy.
