Can you ship to APO/FPO/DPO or other Military addresses?
Absolutely. Some customs restrictions apply and differ by country, but for the most part, yes, we can and are happy to ship to you. Enter your address this way:
-
Write out the service member's rank and full name in the name field.
-
Include their unit and PO box on Address Line 1.
-
The city field will be your APO, FPO, DPO
-
The Region field will be the “state code,” AA, AP, AE
-
Set the country as the United States
If you have a military address, we can, in most cases, ship to you as if you are in the US - which means your shipping costs will US and not international.
What if my order is lost or stolen?
We proudly offer route shipping insurance at checkout. We recommend you purchase this insurance every time to protect your shipment at a low cost to you. If you have not purchased our route shipping insurance, we can help direct you to the shipper (usually USPS) for lost or delayed items or to the police for stolen items. We cannot replace lost or damaged items that shipped uninsured.
Most of our items will show a waterproof rating on their page. You can learn more about that rating here.
We are proud to see the Forest "School" network in the US and Canada growing and thriving. Please check back or join our Facebook group for more on US outdoor schools.
Most of our gear is sized in centimeters, with the size being the middle of the fit range. Simply measure your child's standing height (please don't guess!) and google to convert to centimeters. A child who is 45inches tall is 114.3cm. Most of our gear is in 6 or 10cm increments and fit on a 10cm range - so a 110cm suit is designed to fit at least from 105-115cm. For many kids, the fit allows even more grow room.
Feel free to check out our general sizing sheet here. When it comes to rain gear, perfect fit is really a big deal. It means water - and dampness - stays out, and clothes are neither walked on nor causing discomfort to the child. Every child is different - so for the best fit, we go by height. You can simply measure your child's standing height, and go here to convert inches to centimeters - or if you prefer, email us with your child's height and we're happy to help.
