3 Simple Ways to Return

  1. Return using the SmartLabel™
  2. Return on your own
  3. Return to any U.S. Eddie Bauer store

Return using the SmartLabel™

Use the SmartLabel™ on the front of the order summary included with your order. Just drop the package in the mail, give it to your postal carrier or take it to the Post Office. If a SmartLabel™ was not provided on the front of your order summary, please follow the "Return on your own" instructions.

When using the SmartLabel™ you pay nothing up front. Instead, a return shipping charge of $6.00 will be deducted from your merchandise credit or refund for returns weighing 5 pounds or less and $8.50 for all other packages.

Please allow about 14 days for us to receive and process your return or exchange. We'll credit or refund the value of the merchandise total and any taxes you were charged (excluding delivery and handling charges), less the SmartLabel™ return charge.

Return on your own

Eddie Bauer, Inc.
ATTN: Customer Returns
