How Pre-order Works
Made on Purpose... just like your best decisions!
At Roots etc, we don’t make bags for “just in case”. We make them just for you.
That’s why we do things a little differently, and proudly so. We’re mainly a made-on-demand brand. Translation? No overproduction, no waste, and no sad unsold bags begging for a home.
We carry little inventory because by skipping mass shipments and massive warehouse rent, we can afford to provide you with genuine leather, timeless design, and quality bags without the overblown price tag.
When our on-hand stocks get depleted, our bags automatically go into the pre-order option until re-stocked. By mainly adopting a pre-order model, we only produce what’s truly wanted. You get better bags, the planet gets a breather, and everyone wins.
How It Works
Your Roots etc bag will be made-to-order when our on-hand stocks get depleted. Your pre-order will be delivered within 4 weeks (up to 6 weeks) after your order confirmation date. We’ll keep you posted every step of the way with milestone updates (because ghosting is for bad dates, not good bags).
Two Ways to Pre-Order:
1. Pay in Full Now
When you pre-order and pay upfront, you’ll receive a FREE GIFT from us which you’ll receive with your bag! It’s our way of rewarding your early commitment with real value. Think of it as a little thank you for being decisive and stylish.
2. Pay Half Now, Half Later
Just need a little more time to save? We get it. Place a 50% deposit to secure your spot in our production queue. Then, we will automatically settle the rest within 28 days from order confirmation date. Since each bag is made to order, if the balance isn’t paid, we will forfeit 10% of the product price to help cover the costs already put in. Fair? We think so.
Note: If your product is ready ahead of schedule, we’ll notify you via email. For Half Now, Half Later orders, the remaining balance may be charged earlier.
A Better Way to Buy
Pre-ordering isn’t just a transaction. It’s for women who believe that less is more, and slow is intentional. You’re not just buying a bag, you’re backing efforts on cutting waste, and investing in something made with purpose, and making a bag for someone who truly wants it.
