FAQ

​

PRODUCT INFO

In the name of sustainable fashion, all of our pieces are either up-cycled products or made from 'deadstock' or eco-certified fabrics. All items are sourced in Canada from rag houses, from local thrift stores, who donate back to the community with the profits made from the items we purchase, or from  local material stores who offer certified eco or deadstock options. 

​

All items and materials are carefully selected to go with the values of our shop. All vintage items of clothing are laundered to ensure they are properly sanitized before they are put up for sale.

 

We strive to source items with a make up of quality and natural fibres.

 

What does 'rework' mean?

'Rework', reconstructed', 'up-cycled', re-designed and 'altered' are all words we use to refer to the way we take vintage clothes, and use their material to sew our original designs. For example, we source men's blazers and 're-design' them into two piece blazer sets. 

​

Who reworks / makes the items and where? 
 

The re-designed and 'in house' items are designed and sewn by the shop creator (Jess) in Saguenay, Quebec, and an independent designer (Polina), located in Montreal, Quebec.

What sizes do you offer?

We offer sizes XS-XXL, however, we offer custom options for those who may be smaller or larger, or if you simply do not find your size on our website at the time you are searching. Please contact us at contact@shopfirebird.net and we will be happy to discuss the possibilities with you!

​

Please be mindful that we are a small business (solopreneur at the moment), and do our best to accomodate all sizes and body types with our custom option.

Custom orders and sale items are 'final sale' and are not eligible to be returned or exchanged.

​

A note about exchanges; Please allow 2 weeks from the time you ship it back to us and the time we ship it back to you, as we will be re-making your order. If the exchange is not to your satisfaction, at that point we would offer a store credit that does not expire. All of our pieces are made to order, and many are one-of-a-kind, therefore in the event of an exchange, as mentioned, we re-make your order for a second time, hence why we set a limit of 1 exchange per order. Thank you for your understanding.
