The shipping speed "time" option or service selected at check out doesn't kick in until the order has been fulfilled and tracking has been sent to customer. International order shipping time can very greatly, please email customer support at help@americanapipedream.com with any questions or concerns. 

How is sizing information measured?

We carry clothing from many different nations, also meaning many different military sizing charts. To make sizing easier for our customers, we measure all our surplus clothing ourselves. For a more in-depth explanation of sizing information, please visit our Sizing Guide page.

How do I wash my surplus?

Americana Pipedream is not liable for damage to garments during the washing process after they've been received by the customer.

For items of cotton/polyester fabric blends, we recommend washing as you would any other clothing.

For items of wool or wool blends, we recommend either hand washing or washing them with your washing machine set to cold. Use your own discretion, as some of these items may be dry clean only.

To prevent fading of camouflage patterns, you can turn the garment inside out while washing.

To wash items constructed of waterproof materials, we recommend using the most gentle washing option available on your machine. These garments are often made of rayon and other materials that may be fragile.
