We offer our garments in two lengths, referring specifically to the shirt length. No other aspect of the shirt is affected by its length, which can be viewed on our size chart.

Short: Will fall above the hips of most people.

Long: Will fall below the hips of most people.

Please use the size guide on each product page. We provide flat measurements so that you can compare with your favourite garments at home. Note that even our t-shirts may have different size guides between restocks, so it's best to check for each item before ordering.

We believe that clothing should be designed to fit your body, mind and spirit. We strive to create comfortable clothing that is flattering and inclusive for all shapes and identities.

While we don't operate retail storefronts, we're proud to share that Octopied Mind's central warehouse is in the heart of Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Our co-founders, Jill & Sarah, are originally from the scenic East Coast of Canada, and they've planted their roots in both Nova Scotia (Jill) and Quebec (Sarah).

We are committed to global collaboration with manufacturers who align with our core values, ensuring the creation of high-quality, inclusive garments designed to endure. Our selected factories adhere to stringent standards, prohibiting child labour. To maintain confidentiality and a competitive edge, we do not share the contact details of our partners but rather focus on our shared values and standards.

Core Values:

• High-Quality Products
• Size & Gender Inclusivity
• Sustainable Practices
• Technological Superiority
• Global and Local Collaboration

While we cherish our collaborations with local Canadian businesses, Canada's limited fashion production market necessitates international partnerships to diversify our product line and access specialized materials and expertise. This strategy enables us to uphold high-quality and innovative standards while ensuring accessibility. We remain steadfast in our commitment to ethical and responsible collaboration, upholding our values irrespective of production location.

Markup Explanation:

Our swimwear collection is exclusively made-to-order and ships from a different warehouse than our main shop items. This separation allows us to better manage customer expectations regarding product processing times and delivery. By operating in this manner, we ensure that each swimwear piece is crafted with care and attention to detail, resulting in a high-quality product tailored to your specifications.

Please wait for 24 hours after the 'delivered' status before assuming that the delivery is lost. Sometimes the delivery status is displayed prematurely. If the package does not arrive by the end of the next day, please send an email to support@octopiedmind.com to initiate an investigation.

We do not offer exchanges.

In order to be eligible for a return, the merchandise must be unworn and in its original condition including original tags and barcode/SKU stickers on packaging for easy identification.

We do carefully inspect all items, so please be extra careful when trying on items (i.e. remove jewelry, make-up and do not apply perfume).

If the item(s) is not in its original condition (I.e. pet hair, makeup stains, smoke or food odour, visibly worn, etc.) you will be responsible for loss in value, and not eligible for a refund. The items will be shipped back to you at your cost, or donated upon request.

*Graveyard (defected) items are non-refundable.

* Final Sale items are non-refundable.

*Customers are responsible for the return shipping label fee.

We do not offer exchanges due to the rapid depletion of our inventory, with designs often selling out on the same day. This makes it complex to guarantee the same product's availability in a different size.

If you used a special discount code on your initial order and wish to apply it to a new order after processing a return, please get in touch with us at support@octopiedmind.com, and we will assist you accordingly.

As a small business, we only accept returns for items that we can re-sell. This is why we inspect all returns.

Items will be rejected for the presence of pet/human hair, stains from deodorant or make-up, smell or sign of wear.

In order for an item to be sellable, it must be safe for the next person in line. A product with pet hair, deoderant or presence of smoke for example could be harmful to folks with allergies and other sensitivies.

Items cannot be washed (by us or by you) - They must be in their original condition in order to be re-sold.

We recommend trying things on without deoderant or make-up and away from any pets / smoke before you decide if its the right fit for you.

Please be aware that items purchased during a final sale cannot be returned.

Additionally, temporary mark-downs or special promotions, like holiday events, are limited-time offers, and their discounts won't apply beyond their specified duration. Should you seek a refund or store credit, it will correspond to the amount of your original purchase.

Please note that we do not accept returns or exchanges for swimwear items.This policy is in place to ensure the hygiene and integrity of our products, especially considering the nature of swimwear garments.
