Yes they will allow you to return it. I've returned Tory Burch shoes 2xafter wearing them several times after they made my foot bleed (I did finally find the right pair that didn't. The TB Miller by the way-TB is VERY inconsistent in their shoe sizing, fit, quality...). The second return on these shoes was after I had purchased them a year earlier . After several attempts to wear these sandals pain free I decided to sell them on eBay. When I pulled the shoe box down to do my pictures I realized I had the receipt. I decided to go back to Nordies to see if I could exchange. They asked if I'd rather return and I said yes. They asked me how I'd like it and I said cash and they gave me my refund. Very simple and trouble free. Ive returned a few items over the years & I've never had them ask for my SSN or DL however and my refunds are always cash.
I do think they are cracking down. When I tried to see if I could return or exchange $100+ dress pants that was getting badly frayed after 5 months, a manager was called over - she reluctantly returned it.
