Do I have to pay for Shipping?
Yes, all shipping is calculated at checkout, depending on the weight and parcel size. For UK customers, we offer free shipping.
I am an overseas customer, do I have to pay VAT?
In short, no, if you are outside of the UK, you will not be charged VAT and taxes will be divided accordingly on our invoices, depending on your location.
However, we have one retail price for all our customers. This means that essentially, our UK customers are not charged additional VAT either. We cover the VAT costs for our UK customers.
There may be other local taxes and duties that may be charged by the local duties office when entering the country. These are not under our control but we do not charge for these.
Do I have to pay Customs & Import Duties?
Yes, afraid you so. This is all calculated by the border authorities. They will then be in touch with you to arrange for these fees to be settled before releasing your parcel. This is why we ask you for your email address and telephone number.
For our US Customers, it is worth noting that there is an Import Tax threshold for parcels with a value of up to $800 (circa £600).
For our EU Customers, Customs duties & taxes are settled directly with the local Customs office. We cannot get involved with this.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Here are some guidelines on how to look after your new clothing from The Biggs Collection.
Wool Garments
For best results, we would recommend only dry cleaning the Stanley Biggs Trousers, Scarves and Caps.
Our Knitwear can be hand washed at home on a cool 30 degrees celsius.
There are some great eco-friendly wool detergents available online, but be sure not to rub the garment (to avoid bobbling).
Cold rinse the garments and avoid wrining.
Drying your wool jumper is just as important as washing it properly; do not tumble dry, and try to dry it flat (if you do hang from a washing line, do so from the bottom of the hem) and avoid direct heat and sunlight.
To iron, use a warm setting.
Cotton Garments
For the most eco-friendly results, we would recommend washing at 30 degrees celsius.
Always wash colours seperately. For best results, turn garments inside out before washing and drying and reshape while damp.
Drying your cotton garments are just as important as washing; do not tumble dry and avoid direct heat and sunlight.
To iron, use a warm setting. Any decorations on garments should be ironed on the reverse side or avoided.
Leather Garments
Organic materials like leather and suede can degrade over time if they aren’t properly protected from the elements.
To keep the leather in the best condition we recommend cleaning with a damp cloth. Rub the material carefully to remove dust, dirt and the appearance of small marks. Once the product is cleaned, dry with a cloth.
It is important to avoid using a harsh chemicals to keep the leather strong and prevent cracking. Boot polish and dubbin are the best for your items, but be mindful that polish can change the colour of the leather.
To keep the soles clean and to avoid stains over time we advise cleaning the soles with a damp cloth using warm water and low-chemical soap or cleaning product. Avoid the upper shoe when cleaning the sole. Remove dirt and debris from the sole on a regular basis and avoid any strong or industrial chemicals as they can weaken the sole. Dubbin is a good water-proofer and will stop leathers soles from cracking.
Please note, these are guidelines only and Stanley Biggs Clothiers Ltd assumes no responsibility for any damage or changes made to garments once worn and/or laundered.
