FAQs

Everything you need to know about ordering, wearing, and loving your OHTI pieces.

Shipping & Delivery

How often do you ship orders?

We ship orders 2–3 times a week, typically dispatching on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

How long does delivery take?

We follow standard Australia Post delivery timeframes for both domestic and international shipping. Once your order is dispatched, you'll receive tracking so you always know where it's at.

Do I get tracking on my order?

Yes, always. Tracking is sent straight to your email as soon as your order ships via Australia Post.

Is shipping free?

Free shipping applies to Australian orders over $99, and international orders over $200. For orders over $35 that don't hit those thresholds, we still cover half the typical shipping cost, because we want more people to be able to enjoy OHTI without shipping being the thing that gets in the way.

Returns & Exchanges

What's your return policy?

We accept returns within 14 days of delivery. Items need to be unworn and in original condition to qualify.

Do you offer exchanges?

Of course. If you need a different style, just message us at connect@ohti.com.au. For socks specifically, sizing is always the same fit unless stated otherwise, so there's no need to worry about swapping sizes there.

Who covers return shipping costs?

This is assessed case by case, just reach out and we'll sort it out with you directly.

Payments

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept all major credit and debit cards, as well as Shop Pay, Afterpay, and PayPal.

Products & Materials

What are OHTI socks made from?

Our socks are made from a cotton and spandex blend for stretch and shape retention. See the comparison table below for the exact composition of each style.

What are your bags made from?

Our bags are made using deadstock materials and are handmade. Deadstock fabric is surplus material left over from other fashion or textile production runs, fabric that would otherwise end up unused or discarded. By using it, each bag makes use of existing material rather than creating demand for new fabric, and because supply is always limited, quantities are naturally small. It's part of why our bag pieces feel a little more one of a kind.

What about your knitwear?

Our knitwear yarn is sourced from a supplier certified under The Good Cashmere Standard, an internationally recognised seal covering animal welfare, environmental protection, and traceability throughout production.

How should I care for my OHTI pieces?

For cotton-spandex socks: wash cold with similar colours, avoid fabric softener (it breaks down the spandex over time and reduces stretch), and air dry or tumble dry on low. Turning socks inside out before washing also helps preserve colour and any knitted detail.

Sizing

Do I need to worry about sizing?

Our socks are designed to fit most people, generally sitting within a size 36–41 range (EU), so there's no need to size up or down. One size works for the vast majority of our customers.

Wholesale

Do you offer wholesale?

Yes, and there's no minimum order quantity. Visit our Wholesale Accounts page to submit an enquiry.

How long until I hear back?

We aim to respond within 5 working days. Please note that wholesale orders typically require a 21-day lead time to confirm stock availability, though in some cases we're able to fulfil orders sooner.

Gifting

Do you offer gift wrapping?

Yes. Our gift wrapping is reusable, and we love that our customers give it a second life afterwards, we've seen it repurposed as fruit bags, makeup bags, and travel bags for delicates.

Stock & Pre-Orders

Do you offer pre-orders?

Yes, when we know a restock or new piece is on the way, we open pre-orders for it.

Will sold-out items come back?

It depends on the range. Our Classic and Short Classic lines are kept as permanent, core styles. Everything else is intentionally limited, only a certain number are made, so that every OHTI piece stays a little special and each collection has room to grow into something people build on over time.
