This online store is the official home of University Of Sheffield merchandise maintained and operated by Sheffield Students' Union. Hosted by the third-party e-commerce provider Shopify.

Our Models 

Our models are our students. They provide a natural representation of our products. There are no edits or air brushes. 

Our Cotton

The Sheffield Store only sells ethically sourced cotton. 

The minimum standard of our cotton is WRAP, worldwide responsible accredited production. This is an independent certification ensuring manufacturing is ethical. WRAP offers protection against forced and child labour. It prohibits harassment and abuse complying with local laws offering compensation and benefits. For more information follow this link http://www.wrapcompliance.org/

Where possible we offer a higher standard of cotton, please read your product descriptions for more information. Higher standards of cotton and manufacturing processes include fair trade, carbon neutral production, organic cotton, recycled cotton and the highest standard we're aware of fair share. Fair share is organic fair trade cotton processed in a living wage factory. 

Many of our cotton garments and accessories are suitable for vegans, search vegan to find the full range.

Refund Policy

Under Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000, you, the customer, have a 7 day "cooling off" period from the day the the goods are received. Within this cooling off period you have the right to cancel the contract with Sheffield Store and are entitled to a full refund, including any original delivery charges. If you wish to cancel please contact us by phone or by email.

If the goods have already been dispatched during this 7 day period and you have a "change of heart" then the return delivery costs will be bourn by you, the customer. However, if there is a fault, the return delivery costs will be bourn by Our Sheffield as the merchant.

After the cooling off period, if you are not fully satisfied with your purchase, items can be returned with a full refund within 28 days of receiving your goods. We cannot accept returns after 28 days has elapsed. Items must be in a condition fit for re-sale (clean, unused with tags/packaging). Please send either a copy of your receipt or your online order number with the item. Items are returned at the cost of the customer. Refunds will be made to the original card used to make the purchase. The money should appear in the account within 10 days of the refund being issued. The cost of the initial postage can not be refunded for returned items.

*All custom made or personalised products are made to order and are therefore non-refundable.*

All refunds will be made back to the original payment method and card used.

Delivery Information

We ship within the UK and Internationally. All items are posted via Royal Mail. UK delivery is charged at a flat rate of £4.50 regardless of the product(s) ordered. All UK orders are posted Second Class Standard. Deliveries will normally be received within 5 working days. 

For orders outside the UK, the customer may choose between International Standard or International Tracked and Signed delivery. The cost of each is automatically calculated based on weight and destination.

Please note, there is a 2kg limit per parcel with Royal Mail. If your order weighs more than that, we may have to send the order in two or more packages. For enquiries about posting heavier orders please email store@sheffield.ac.uk.

At certain times of the year, for example Easter weekend and the period of time between Christmas and New Year, the Students' Union building will be closed and no staff will be available to process orders. Please be patient around these times and allow for any delays if ordering items required in a specific time frame.

Where's my order?

You will receive an email notification when your order has been shipped. We expect UK deliveries to arrive 2-3 working days after shipping, deliveries to Europe to arrive 3-5 working days after shipping and deliveries to the rest of the world to arrive 6-7 working days after shipping.

Unfortunately, sometimes orders can be delayed, especially when they need to go through customs in other countries. We ask customers to please be patient if their order is taking longer than expected. In the rare instance, when an order does not arrive, we will be able to declare it lost. In these instances, we can either ship the order out again or offer a full refund. Parcels can be declared lost 10 working days after the due date for UK orders, 20 working days after the due date for orders to Europe and 25 working days after the due date for orders to the rest of the world.
