WILL THERE BE ANY CUSTOM DUTIES TO PAY?
When ordering goods from somdiff.com for delivery outside the UK you may be subject to additional import duties and taxes, which are levied once the order reaches the specified destination. Any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you. We have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Contact your local customs office for further information. If these charges are unpaid, your order may be returned to us and we will be unable to refund shipping costs. There may also be costs associated with the return to us, which will be deducted from any refund value. In certain situations, your order may be destroyed by customs if duties and taxes are not paid. In this instance, we cannot refund product or shipping costs for these reasons.

ARE THERE ANY RECOMMENDED CARE INSTRUCTIONS FOR CUSTOMERS?

As you can imagine, we stock a wide variety of products across all our different brands. Therefore, we will answer this as best we can here, using the main product line from each brand as a general ‘rule of thumb’.

Further information on washing and care guidance for a specific item, will be found within the description of an individual product listing page (where applicable).

Good Mood
As with any item of clothing, it is strongly recommended that the consumer washes their garment before being worn for the first time, due to hygienic purposes. Socks should be washed at 40°C or lower. Do not tumble dry, dry clean or bleach.

The Mountain
When the consumer first receives their apparel from The Mountain, we recommend the customer washes the product in cold water alone (30°C), or with similar colours. Since most of The Mountain apparel is hand-dyed, the item may bleed some excess colour for the first few washes. It is safe for them to use normal detergent, but just strongly advise against the use of bleach-based substances. Once washed, The Mountain garments should be dried either in a tumble dryer or flat.

LazyOne
Pyjamas should be machine washed cold with like colours, using non-chlorine bleach detergent. The consumer can then tumble dry the PJ set when needed on a low setting. Once the cycle has finished, remove promptly from the tumble dryer and warm iron as needed inside out.  
 

DO YOU HAVE ANY POINT OF SALE MATERIAL?
From time to time POS materials become available and can be included with an order. Please request this at the time of ordering and we'll include it if it's available.
