FAQ
To help you shop for the holidays with peace of mind, we have extended our return window for holiday gifting. Any purchase made between November 15 and December 24 can be returned or exchanged until January 10, or according to our 21-day policy.
All items must be in their original condition to qualify for a full refund.
Parmi (preposition): to be in the middle of something. Being in a group, Parmi your friends. Or alone, Parmi the trees.
Parmi is the outdoors among the city, culture among nature, individuality among a community, fashion among performance, youth among the great outdoors, laughter among adrenaline... it's both a symbol of individuality and a sign of collectivity.
Because we aren’t supposed to choose the same paths each day, our products are designed to follow you on your own journey no matter where you're heading to. Everywhere. Everyday.
Lifewear because our essentials are :
Good for the whole life cycle of the product - from its first to fourth owner.
Good for any stage of your life - whether you’re 7 or 77 years old.
Good for every part of your active lifestyle - from the trails to the asphalt.
Your entire customer journey is now directly with us. You’ll be able to find your Parmi essentials on our website, in pop-up stores, during special events (details coming soon) and using the “drop ship” method at selected retailers’ websites, such as Altitude Sports.
The NEW 2024 Drop will be launch in March.
At Parmi, we view the sustainability path as a continuous one. We recognize there will always be more to learn, new ways to adapt, and endless possibilities to improve. We celebrate what we can achieve, and we recognize how far we still must go. We believe sustainability is a journey, not a destination; it is as much about education as it is about building a mindset.
Two actionable paths drive our sustainability vision and ensure it remains relevant on the long run: Minimal Waste & Maximal Usefulness
Our sustainability journey is an open and honest conversation with our suppliers, retailers, and our community. Through this journey, we consciously take some specific actions to limit our footprint and lead by example.

Parmi is all about becoming a solution to everyone who is looking for tips and advice on what (when and how) to wear for their outdoor journey. We exist to help our communities make smarter choices when it comes to the outdoors and encourage the world to consume less, and better.

After finalizing your purchase, we will send you a confirmation email with the details of your order.
We start working on your order as soon as we receive it, so we remind you that it is not possible to cancel or modify it.
Once you have completed your transaction, an order confirmation email will be sent to the email you provided. If you haven't received an order confirmation email, please contact our customer service: care@parmilifewear.com
A pre-order is an order placed for an item that we do not yet have on hand. These orders will be shipped as soon as inventory becomes available.
Cancelling an order is the last thing we want to do, but it may be necessary due to some of these reasons.
- The item is out of stock
- Discrepancy in billing information
- Policy breach*
*Parmi does not support Bulk Purchasing or Freight Forwarding. Orders failing to comply with our policy may be cancelled without notification.
In the event your order is cancelled, you will not be charged, and any charges pending charges will be cancelled as well.
In this case, please check your junk or spam mail folder. If your confirmation email isn't in there, get in touch with our Customer Care team for further help: care@parmilifewear.com.
Please visit our detailed Warranty page for all the information related to our warranty, and care program, which includes repair services and damage replacements.
When you order on Parmi, you can choose to add a Patch Patch to your order. If you decide not to take it, you can always ask for one later if needed; repairing a torn garment is easy and is much better than throwing it away.
Any modification or alteration including all repairs done without Parmi's customer service authorization will automatically void the warranty.
We try to find repair options whenever possible; however, some products may not be repairable due to age, condition, or the nature of the damage. That being said, every case is different, and we would be happy to review your product and see how we can help.
For repair and replacement services, we ask that you arrange for your product to be shipped to us and we will cover any shipping costs for returning the product to you.
Parmi is not responsible for items lost or damaged during shipping and won't replace packages lost during the return transit if proof of delivery is unavailable.
We do our best to review your product as quickly as possible. If your gear can be repaired by us, we will let you know via email, and we’ll include an estimate of the time needed to complete the repairs.
General sizing information for Parmi products is included on our Sizing Charts page.
Our sizing is standard, but our products are designed following three different fits, for which the sizing may vary from a fit to another.
Visit our Size & Tips page for more information about sizing and make sure you consider our fit recommendation featured in every product page.
Parmi encourages everyone to choose items that fit their needs. Our design team created three signature fits:
Athletic fit
A close-to-body fit (slim-fitting) that has been made to move without restriction.
Standard fit
A standard fit, sitting just off the body for optimal freedom of movement and airflow for time spent on and off your active lifestyle.
Informal fit
A casual and looser fit for a modern and inclusive style flattering to all body shapes and ideal for layering up.
Like any clothes, your Parmi items need special care, especially the Merino items.
You’ll find the washing instructions inside your garment, printed on a silk tag (also available on our website). Follow these instructions to ensure your favourite Parmi gear a long lifespan.
In general, washing your gear in cold or warm water with mild laundry soap (non-toxic, and preferably biodegradable) and line drying it is the best way to clean your Parmi products.
Need some help grasping the meaning of the symbols on the tag of your garment? We’ve got you covered. Visit our Fabric Care Tips in the Care & Warranty page.
