Size charts are generally shown in cm. Some products may use mm.
Each item may vary slightly, and depending on the manufacturing process and where it is measured, the actual item may differ from the size chart by approximately 1–3 cm. Please allow for this when choosing your size.
Product images and colours
Product images are shown in colours as close as possible to the actual items. Colours may appear different in person due to the lighting used for photography or the display settings on your smartphone or computer.
Accessories
If bags, accessories, shoes, underwear or other small items appear in product images, they are not included unless the product title or description says they are. Please check the product title and description for the contents of any set.

After you place an order

- When we receive or confirm your order
- When your payment is confirmed (for payment methods that require it)
- When your item has been dispatched
- If we need to check any details of your order
Where available, the dispatch confirmation email will include a tracking number.
If you do not receive an email
First, check your customer account's order history and your spam folder.
If you use an email address provided by your mobile network and block messages sent from computers, or have set up domain filtering, please allow emails from “cielosiro.co.jp”. If you are unsure how to change these settings, please change the address where you receive our emails to a free email address such as Gmail.
Changing the email address for order messages
If you want to correct or change the email address you entered when ordering, go to chat support at the bottom of the shop page and select “Check order and dispatch status” (注文・発送状況を確認したい), then “Order confirmation email has not arrived” (注文完了メールが届かない).
After reading the instructions, select “Change the email address for order messages” (受信メールアドレスを変更する), then enter the name and telephone number used for the order. If we can verify your order details, a screen for entering your new email address will appear. Once you submit it, we will change the email address for that order to the new address.
This will not change the email address you use to sign in to your customer account.
Shipping and delivery within Japan
Shipping charges
- 46 prefectures, excluding Okinawa Prefecture: flat rate of ¥750
- Okinawa Prefecture: ¥1,500
- A single order with a total item price of ¥12,000 or more: free shipping, including Okinawa Prefecture
There is no additional charge for islands outside Okinawa Prefecture. The shipping charge and total payable shown at checkout take precedence.
Dispatch and estimated delivery times
Dispatch and delivery estimates are the same for all products delivered within Japan.
After your order is confirmed, dispatch usually takes around 3–10 days, averaging around 7 days. Delivery normally takes around 5 days after dispatch.
After public holidays, or when customs or carriers are busy, or because of weather or traffic conditions, delivery after dispatch may take longer than usual.
Delivery companies
For deliveries within Japan, we mainly use Sagawa Express. Depending on the item and delivery address, we may use Yamato Transport or Japan Post. You cannot choose the delivery company.
Inspection and dispatch
We inspect items before dispatch. Normally, we dispatch your order after all the items have passed inspection and packing is complete.
Even for an order containing a single item, dispatch may take longer than usual if inspection finds a defect, because we need to arrange a replacement and inspect it again. We dispatch the item as soon as preparation and inspection are complete.
If your order contains several items and any item found to be defective during inspection needs to be sourced again, we aim to dispatch the items ready at that time first, around 14 days after the order date. We dispatch replacement items as soon as they have passed inspection and packing, one by one.
If we split your order into multiple dispatches for reasons on our side, we will not charge additional shipping.
In rare cases, dispatch may take significantly longer, for example if an item sourced again is found to be defective during reinspection.
You may request cancellation of any item that remains unshipped after 30 days have passed from the order date because of a dispatch delay.
Delivery date and time requests
We cannot accept requests for a delivery date or time window when you place your order. After dispatch, please contact the delivery company directly using your tracking number.
Changing your delivery address
You can change the delivery address after your order is confirmed, provided the item has not yet been dispatched. To request a change, do not enter personal information in the free-text field of the support chat. Instead, ask “I want to change my delivery address” (「お届け先を変更したい」).
Follow the instructions to check your order details, then enter the new address in the form shown. You cannot change the recipient’s name or phone number.
You cannot change the delivery address after an item has been dispatched.
We also cannot change the address before dispatch if the new destination has a different shipping charge, such as Okinawa Prefecture.
Extended absence and refused delivery
We outsource order dispatch to a fulfilment provider. If you refuse delivery, or we cannot deliver because of an error in the address you entered, the item will not be returned to us. It will be held for a certain period in the delivery company’s or fulfilment provider’s warehouse and then disposed of.
In these cases, we do not refund the item price, shipping charge or any other amount paid. If redelivery is possible, you are responsible for any costs incurred for redelivery, return, storage and other related services.
Even if you no longer want the item, please do not refuse delivery. Receive it first, then contact us about a return for personal reasons.
Cancellations and refunds
Cancellations after order confirmation
We begin preparing your order promptly after it is confirmed. For this reason, we do not accept cancellations for personal reasons after order confirmation.
However, if a dispatch delay means an item remains unshipped after 30 days have passed from the order date, you may request cancellation of the unshipped item because of the delay. If some items in an order containing several products have already been dispatched, only the unshipped items are eligible.
To ask about a cancellation, contact us through the support chat at the bottom of the store.
Refund method
- When refunding an amount already paid, we normally refund it to the payment method used for the order.
- We may issue store credit only if payment-provider restrictions or other reasons prevent us from refunding the original payment method.
If you cannot see a refund after we have notified you that it was issued, log in to your PANCHAPANCHA customer account and check your store credit balance as well.
You may request a monetary payout of store credit issued for an order cancellation or another refund through the support chat. Store credit issued for a return for personal reasons can only be used for purchases at PANCHAPANCHA and cannot be exchanged for cash.
Personal returns for deliveries within Japan
Return conditions depend on where your order is delivered, not the language used to browse the store. The conditions below apply to deliveries within Japan. This does not confirm that delivery outside Japan is available.
Request deadline and review
If you would like to return an item for personal reasons, submit a request through the support chat within 3 days, including the delivery date. Do not send the item back before we provide return instructions. After approval, follow the return method and deadline we provide.
Submitting a request does not guarantee approval. We review each request individually, taking into account the item’s condition, the number of items requested for return, previous returns and other relevant circumstances.
We may decline a request if you are returning many items at once, have made frequent returns, or if other circumstances reasonably make acceptance inappropriate.
Credit and fees for an approved return
For an approved return, we issue store credit for 80% of the amount actually paid for the returned items. This credit has no expiry date.
The credit can only be used for purchases at PANCHAPANCHA and cannot be exchanged for cash. The remaining 20% is the return-processing fee, and you pay the return shipping cost.
The original shipping charge, payment fees and any other amounts besides the item price are not included in the credit. Even if the item total falls below the free-shipping threshold after a return, we do not deduct an additional shipping charge from the credit.
Items that are not eligible for return
- Items for which no return request was submitted within 3 days, including the delivery date
- Items worn or used beyond an indoor size check
- Items worn or used for photographs, including social-media content
- Items with tags, labels, accessories or packaging removed
- Items that have been washed, cleaned, repaired or altered
- Items with stains, damage, odours, makeup marks, substantial creasing or other changes from their condition on delivery
Items returned without prior contact or approval
Items returned without prior contact or approval are not accepted as returns.
We will contact you to choose between having the item sent back to you with shipping payable on receipt or having it disposed of. If you do not reply by the deadline we provide, or we cannot reach you, the item will be disposed of.
No refund of the item price is made in either case.
Defective or incorrect items delivered within Japan
What to check when your order arrives
When your order arrives, check its contents and condition before wearing, using or washing the items.
If an item is defective or different from what you ordered, contact us through the support chat within 7 days, including the delivery date, with photos or other evidence showing the issue. After review, we will explain the return, replacement or refund procedure.
Confirmed defects or incorrect deliveries are not subject to the 20% personal-return fee or customer-paid return shipping.
We cannot accept a return, replacement or refund claim as a defect if you contact us after 7 days, counting the delivery date, or if the item has changed after delivery because it has been worn, used, washed, damaged by you, altered or otherwise changed. These conditions do not limit rights that cannot be waived under applicable law.
Always contact us before sending an item back.
Size exchanges within Japan
Size exchanges are currently suspended
Size exchanges are currently suspended because our warehouse cannot handle them. If an item does not fit, check the conditions for returns for personal reasons.
Returns for deliveries outside Japan
Returns for personal reasons
We do not accept personal returns, including a change of mind or dissatisfaction with fit, colour or appearance. Check the product description, measurements and colour before ordering.
Defective or incorrect items delivered outside Japan
Check the items before wearing, using or washing them. Report a defect or an item that differs from your order through the support chat within 7 days, counting the delivery date as day 1. Include your order number and both photographs and video clearly showing the issue.
We review the evidence and order details. Once we confirm a defect or incorrect delivery, we decide whether to send a replacement or issue a refund based on the circumstances and stock availability. If a replacement is unavailable, we refund the eligible amount. We may request more evidence if the information provided is insufficient; a report alone does not guarantee a remedy.
You do not need to return the affected item. We charge no additional shipping for an approved replacement.
Size exchanges outside Japan
Size exchanges are unavailable. An item that does not fit is a personal reason and is not eligible for return. If we delivered a different size from the one ordered, follow the defective or incorrect-item procedure.
Refused or undeliverable shipments
If delivery fails because you refuse the shipment or provide an incomplete or incorrect address, we do not refund the item price, shipping charge or other payments for that order. Refusing a shipment does not cancel the order. Check your delivery details before confirming your purchase.
Loss in transit
We refund an item when its tracking information confirms that it was lost in transit. If an order has not arrived, contact support chat with your order number and tracking number.
Refund amounts for defective, incorrect or lost items
If every item in the order qualifies for a refund, we refund the full amount paid, including the original shipping charge. If only some items qualify, we refund the amount paid for those items plus their share of the original shipping charge. That share is calculated by multiplying the original shipping charge by the affected items’ proportion of the total item weight in the order.
Customs duties and import taxes charged again
If you are charged customs duties or import taxes again for an order delivered outside Japan, and those duties or taxes were already included in the shipping charge or otherwise paid for that same order, contact us through the PANCHAPANCHA support chat. Provide your order number and evidence of the separate charge, such as an invoice or receipt. We will review the evidence against your order. If we confirm that the charge duplicates duties or taxes already covered for the order, we will refund the verified additional amount to the payment method used for your order. This reimbursement is separate from the weight-based allocation of the original shipping charge for refunds involving defective, incorrect or lost items.
Refund method
Refunds normally go to the original payment method. If payment-provider restrictions or other limitations prevent this, we issue store credit with no expiry date. You may request a monetary payout of unused refund credit through the support chat; we check the order history and credit usage before processing the request. The time until a refund appears depends on the payment provider.
Applicable legal rights that cannot be waived remain protected.
