FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q. I got my order, but I need a larger/smaller size, how to do I exchange?
A. There are several ways that items can be exchanged:
We recommend you place another order as sizes and styles may be selling quickly. All returns must be authorized first, and if you sent your order back with a request, it is possible we may not have your size selection by the time a return is processed.
The best way to ensure your exchange is as follows:
1. Place another order online for the size/styles you need; enter in the customer comments that you want to return items from another order and we will include a return label for the items to be returned. When items are returned in resaleable condition (tags attached and unworn) the original order will be credited.
2. Contact our store at 609-377-5139 or 609-241-1029 to place a phone order for the items you need, the process will be the same as above,
Q. What size Snoozies® slippers should I order?
Please note that the Snoozies brand slippers and socks do not shrink.
A. Women’s slippers run generally true to size with Small = 5/6, Medium = 7/8, Large = 9/10, and Extra Large = 11/12.
For half sizes, we suggest to order the next size up. Skinnies® style slippers and hard sole skinnies stretch a bit more around the foot and may better for wider feet, whereas the plush pairables and other standard plush slippers may have less stretch.
Men’s slippers have been reported to run a bit small in some styles, if half size the next size up should be ordered, especially with wider feet.
Children’s and toddler slippers can sometimes be tricky, while we provide guidance based on shoe size, the information below can be helpful:
Toddlers are considered over 12 mos. The slippers are sized Small = 5/6, with an approximate sole length of 6”, Medium = 7/8 with an approximate sole length of 6.5”, Large = 9/10 with an approximate sole length of 7”, and Extra Large = 11/12 with an approximate sole length of 7.5”
Kid’s slippers are generally for children over 3 or 4 years old depending on their size. The slippers are sized Small = 13/1, with an approximate sole length of 8.5”, Medium = 2/3, with an approximate sole length of 9”, and Large =4/5, with an approximate sole length of 10”
Size guidance is based on how the slipper fits a bare foot, if you intend on wearing socks with slippers you may be advised to order the next size up.
Q. When will I receive my order?
A. Our system provides estimated delivery timelines based on the type of carrier and based on shipping window cutoffs. We ship from New Jersey, USA with a general cutoff of 2 pm Eastern time zone Monday through Friday. We do our best to ship orders received the same day, however during peak period there may be a one to two-day delay. Most orders are received throughout the continental US between 3-5 days. We advertise only items we have in stock and we do not drop ship products from other locations. If we are unable to fill an order, you will be notified within 24 hours.
We are unable to control the service level of USPS or parcel carriers during high demand periods or at any time.
Note: If you live in a multi-unit type of dwelling or complex, we strongly encourage you to track your package closely as we can not be responsible for parcels that are confirmed delivery by the carrier but may be mysteriously missing or delivered to a wrong apartment unit. We are not able to contact USPS to find out where your item is if it is marked delivered to your box, whereas your local carrier is better able to answer your inquiry. If you experience issues with USPS delivery in your location for other parcels, we would recommend UPS or request a restricted delivery to be signed for.
Q. Will I receive tracking information for my shipment?
A. Once your order is shipped or dropped off to the carrier your order will be updated with tracking info. Tracking information should be updated within 24 hours of your order being tendered to the carrier.

Q. How is my order being shipped?
A. Our main method of shipping is through US postal service, first class, due to the size and weight of most of our packages. We allow customers to also select UPS Ground or UPS 3 Day Select if desired, however for most parcels under 3 pounds USPS is the most economical method.
Q. I got a message saying that my order has changed status. What does that mean?
A. System messages are generated regarding order status when orders are being filled and shipped. If you get a message saying that your order is "Awaiting Shipment" that means your order was filled is in the queue to be shipped out. Status will be changed to "Shipped" with tracking information associated with the order when the order has been tendered to the carrier. During peak periods, we may be updating status to shipped when carrier labels are created which may be up to 1 day prior to actual shipping.
Please bear in mind that human beings are making updates to these orders, so please be patient if you see multiple changes or corrections to orders.
