Knitwear makes an easy gift. It suits most occasions, it travels flat, and if the size is wrong it is a simple exchange. This page explains how gifting works with us, in our Colombo shops and online.
Gift cards
A Legacy London gift card is sold online in pounds sterling, from £25 to £150, and arrives by email with a unique code. The recipient spends it on anything on the site, across more than one order if they like, and it does not expire. Gift cards are redeemed online at checkout. They are a UK and Europe service for now and are not sold in Sri Lanka yet.
Gift boxes in our Colombo shops
Buy in person at Havelock City Mall, One Galle Face or Union Place and ask for a gift box at the till. The piece is folded in Legacy London tissue paper and boxed, ready to hand over. Gift boxing is in store only for now.
Sending an online order as a gift
Every online order is packed in our tissue paper. If it is a gift, tell us when you order: write "gift" and any message in the order note on the basket page before you check out, or email customerservice@legacylondon.co.uk with your order number straight after. We will pack it as a gift and include your message. A gift box for online orders is not offered yet: the box adds weight and cost to every parcel, and we would rather keep delivery free. We are looking at it.
Delivery is free to the UK and across Sri Lanka. The order confirmation and the receipt go to the buyer by email, not to the recipient.
Getting the size right
Every product page lists the garment's measurements, and how we measure explains how to compare them with a piece they already own. If you would rather they chose, a gift card does that. Our 30-day returns cover gifts too; the person who placed the order starts the return.
Questions
Can I send it straight to the recipient?
Yes. Enter their address as the delivery address at checkout and your own as the billing address.
Can I add a message?
Yes. Write it in the order note on the basket page, or email it to us with your order number, and we will include it.
Is gift wrapping available online?
Not as a boxed option yet. Every order arrives in our tissue paper, and we pack gifts as gifts when you ask. Gift boxes are available in our Colombo shops.
