Product Questions

The shield cutout comes pre-cut to the shape shown in photos - however - that portion of the wallet is made of leather so it can easily be cut to fit almost any size or shape badge.

BUNKER GEAR WALLET: Does the badge in the photo come with the wallet?

No.

How should I wash your shirts?

Just like any other screen printed shirt.

• Turn garment inside out.
• Set wash temperature to cold.
• Line dry or tumble dry low.
• Do not bleach or dry clean.

Are your products made in the USA?

All of our products are designed, printed, and embroidered in the U.S.A.

Our Flexfit hats are made outside the US, commonly in the Dominican Republic or Veitnam, and Yupoong beanie caps are manufactured in Korea.

Our belt buckles are made in Canada.

Why does the item only show certain sizes?

BUNKER GEAR WALLETS: Can I request the striping on my wallet order?

 All wallets come with some striping or lettering but we cannot control which style you will receive.

Can I submit my own artwork for consideration?

We have lots of requests to send in artwork. We would love to see it, but we've discouraged it for a couple of reasons:

1. We have not as of yet printed any submitted artwork - not because it wasn't good enough, just because we have so much of our own stuff that we're still waiting to go to print with
    
2. We have lots of artwork in varying stages of completion. If that artwork just happens to look similar to something you send, I wouldn't want you to be pissed and think we stole your design.

We're working on a concept that could work for user submitted artwork and we'll definitely make it public when we do. In the meantime, if you want to send some stuff over, we'd be happy to take a look!

 Can I request a digital copy of your artwork to give to a Tattoo Artist?

We are not able to provide any digital images of the artwork. You do have permission to go to a tattoo artist with the shirt or accessory item that you own and they can reproduce it.

Why does the USPS states my tracking number is invalid when I click the tracking link?

First Class US mail cannot guarantee a delivery date and even though a tracking number is assigned to the order they reserve the right to not update the order.

How can I exchange an item I received for a different size?

How Do Preorders Work?

Our products sell out quickly so due to popular demand, we occassionally allow preorders when we know that we are receiving a product within 1-2 weeks. When you choose to preorder an item, please note that your credit card is charged upon placing the order, even though the order may not ship for 1-3 weeks.

Rarely, something will be delayed in production or shipping which may cause a preorder to take longer than expected. In those cases, we will attempt to contact you via email or phone (if you've provided that information) to ask if you would like a refund, exchange, or just continue waiting.

Payments

Do I need a PayPal Account to place an order?

You do not need a PayPal account to make a purchase. There is a link that says to process order without PayPal Account, when you get to the PayPal screen. PayPal processes the payments, but you can pay with a credit card without actually using a PayPal account.
