At AALLYN, we strive to ensure your orders are delivered promptly and safely. However, once a package is marked as delivered by the carrier, it is the customer's responsibility to ensure its safe receipt. If you find that your order is marked as delivered but you have not received it, please consider the following:
- Your delivery person placed your package somewhere discreet to protect it from theft —behind a plant, under a mat; we've seen it all (and appreciate their thoughtfulness).
- Your delivery person marked your package as delivered a few days in advance, and the package may still be on the way.
- A neighbor or roommate may have accepted the package for you.
- Please verify the shipping address on your order confirmation to confirm it was shipped correctly.
If your package is marked as delivered and has not arrived in 5 business days, we recommend filing a claim/request with the carrier following instructions below. While AALLYN is not responsible for packages lost or stolen after delivery, we are happy to provide you with any information you need in filing a claim with the carrier.
Important Notes:
- AALLYN cannot be held liable for lost or stolen packages once they are marked as delivered, but we will do our best to help.
- Claims must be reported within 3 weeks of the expected delivery date or 1 month from the original order date.
- Please note that customers will be responsible for a $25 flat rate fee for any replacement items issued in cases where the parcel is marked as delivered by the carrier, but is missing.
Actions to take:
- For USPS packages: If your USPS package is marked as delivered but is missing, please visit the USPS Missing Mail Page to submit a request. USPS will investigate the missing parcel, and you’ll receive updates on its status.
- For UPS Domestic Packages, if a package is marked as delivered but is missing, customers should file a claim directly with UPS.
- Once a claim is filed with the carrier, you can provide your request/claim information to AALLYN via the form below. Please inform us of any status updates received from the carrier. If the carrier determines that the package is lost, we will assist with a replacement.
Orders with a retail value of over $250 shipped via UPS will require a signature upon delivery. This is to protect all parties and prevent high-value package theft.
Please be aware that AALLYN cannot be held responsible for orders shipped to incorrect addresses provided by customers.
If a parcel is returned to our Los Angeles warehouse due to an incorrect address, recipient unavailable, or because it wasn’t picked up (i.e. left at a local USPS after missed delivery, or not collected at a UPS Access Point within 5 business days of delivery), we will treat it as a standard return, for which our usual return policy and $15 restocking fee would apply.
However, if you’d still like to receive your order, simply provide us with the correct shipping address before the returned parcel arrives back at our warehouse, and we’ll re-ship it to you. Please note that while we typically offer free shipping, re-sent orders are subject to a $15 shipping fee (+$8 for each additional bag), which will be billed to you via invoice. We cover the cost of both the original shipping and the return-to-sender shipping amount.
Our Christmas shipping cutoff date for our Free standard shipping rate (4-12 business day delivery) is December 10, 2024. Please place your orders by this date to ensure delivery before Christmas. Orders placed after this date may deliver by Christmas (especially anyone located near Los Angeles), but we cannot make a guarantee. Please note that this is the busiest time of year for shipping carriers and ground-shipping delays are common.
Expedited shipping (2-3 business day delivery) is available upon request. Customers are responsible for the full expedited method fee and all shipping fees are non-refundable.
Orders
We generally cannot accommodate cancellation requests once an order has been placed. However, if you contact us through the form below, we will promptly reach out to our warehouse team and do our best to intercept any orders that have not yet left our facility.
Please note, there is typically a 12-hour window between when an order is picked up by our third-party logistics partner and when it is scanned by the carrier. Therefore, an "unfulfilled" status does not necessarily mean your order has not shipped. Orders are generally processed and shipped the morning following the business day of placement.
If you created an account on our site, you can log in and view your order history. Otherwise, please check your emails from our shop for updates.
Please note that we ship all orders the morning of the next business day (excluding weekends and holidays). However, there is a 12-hour delay between when an order is picked up by our logistics partner and when it is scanned by the carrier, so tracking information is not immediately available.
If your order was placed Monday through Thursday, you will receive an email with tracking information by midnight the following business day.
If your order was placed Friday through Sunday, the email will be sent on Monday evening.
Note: We are on Pacific Standard Time.

Company
We are an American company headquartered in Los Angeles, California.
AALLYN is based in Los Angeles, where our bags are designed.
To produce our collection, we partner with a family-owned business in the Guangdong province of China, which shares our dedication to quality and attention to detail. This allows us to maintain high standards while keeping costs affordable. That way, we can offer you great value without compromising on craftsmanship.
Product
Our bags are made of cowhide leather, which we treat with a custom polymer coating that enhances the color and provides a protective layer for durability. This coating is applied to all of our bag leathers, including smooth and pebbled finishes. Our coating gives the leather a smooth, uniform appearance, resulting in a beautiful sheen.
Inspired by our founder's experience as a new mom, our collection reflects a desire for elegance without the high maintenance. She envisioned bags that offer a designer aesthetic while being resilient enough to meet the demands of daily life. Each piece is hand-crafted and thoughtfully constructed, so you don’t have to compromise style or practicality.
Yes, each AALLYN bag is shipped inside its own branded dust bag, making our bags the perfect gift for a loved one.
Any product issues must be raised with AALLYN within our 14-day return window. Please use the contact form below to inform us of any issues. Our team will respond within 48 hours requesting photos so we can further assist you.
