How to return Nike
How to return Nike: Go to nike.com/orders and sign in to your Nike Member account (or use Guest Order Lookup at nike.com/orders/details with your order number and email). You’ll need to sign in to your account to start. 60-day return window even if tried on; Members get a free UPS QR label (printerless, 21 days to drop off), guests print and pay their own carrier; no restocking fee; free in-store returns at Nike-owned stores (not Foot Locker/Dick's); Nike By You/personalized and Final Sale are non-returnable.
Official steps
- Go to nike.com/orders and sign in to your Nike Member account (or use Guest Order Lookup at nike.com/orders/details with your order number and email).
- Open the order and select "Start a Return or Exchange."
- Pick the item(s) and a return reason.
- As a Member, get the free UPS return QR code (no printer needed); as a guest, print your own label or arrange and pay your own carrier.
- Pack the items and drop them at UPS within 21 days (the QR code is valid 21 days).
- Wait for Nike to receive and process the return; the refund goes back to your original payment method.
Do I need an account?
The free printerless label path requires signing into a Nike Member account, and the site sits behind aggressive Akamai bot detection while the guest order-lookup path only yields a self-paid carrier label.
