A little ditty on ordering latex

Today, The Latex Store is sharing some tips about ordering from our online store! First off, we do guarantee that the products we received free of manufacturer flaws. When you receive your latex, it will be in a quality, brand new condition. All of the clothing and our toys as well are talced to preserve their condition. When you receive your product, you'll want to wash it and remove the talc before you use it. If you need cancel your order, occasionally there may be a 10% cancellation fee. This is because credit card companies will charge us for canceling your transaction.

This leads us to the types of payment we accept. If you want to place an order on the web, you can use a credit card, PayPal account or a money order. If you wish to order offline, you can fax or mail us your order. If you want to make a purchase with a Money Order please go to our store and place your order and select the Money Order option so we have a record of exactly what you are ordering. We can only accept your credit and through fax. Also, we do not accept personal checks. Returning your latex is a possibility but, we encourage you to use our Size Chart and try to pick the right size. If you are sent an incorrect order, we will send you the correct items at our own cost or we will refund your money. We take full responsibility for incorrect orders but please inform of this within 5 business days.

If your product is defective, we will also repair or replace it for you at our cost. However, it must be done within 5 business days. If you need to return the item due to a size issue, it needs to be done within 5 business days. However, you cannot return panties and things of that nature for health reasons. We are also not responsible for the shipping costs of these returns. Of course, there are more details about returns located here on our site. In fact, everything about I mentioned in this post can be found on our Policies Page. We encourage our customers to read this page when you are considering ordering from us. I do hope this helps! Above all, we want happy satisfied customers, and the that end we go the extra mile to make sure your experience with TheLatexStore.com is a good one. Happy latex shopping!!

Let's talk about gloves, baby

Gloves. They are an interesting article of clothing. They are either extremely neccesary or not needed at all. But either way, Latex Store customers love them! And there is an entire section of The Latex Store dedicated to them for both gals and guys.
Anything from:
Opera Gloves!
To....
Frilled Gauntlets!
And...
Wrist Length for the fellas!
We have gloves alright! And they come in two varieties: standard and premium. The premium latex gloves are a bit thicker and smoother than the standard latex. You also have more color options, like white and metalic blue. And we have noticed that finding the correct size in latex gloves can be tricky for our customers. Luckily, we have an entire size chart dedicated just to gloves which can be found on each glove product page. When you are measuring your hands, you'll want to wrap the tape around your knuckles, exluding your thumb, like so...
Take this measurement and apply it to the size chart. And just like with clothing, you'll want to subtract an inch. That way, you get some stretch and a better fit. And please do remember that the small is very, very tight around the top of the arm. Try to keep all of this in mind while purchasing gloves because getting the right fit the first time takes out the added annoyance of returns and exchanges. We just want you to have a product you're going to love and be able to wear right away!

Let's hear it for the boys!

Now, latex is certainly not just for the ladies. It’s for guys too! The Latex Store has an excellent selection of men’s latex clothing and accessories! And fellas, you get a little sizing advice too. When finding you size, you’re going to need a tape measure as well. Take your clothing off and measure your bare skin. That’s very important!

Once you get that measurement, go ahead and subtract an inch so you get some stretch! Here’s an example. Let’s say you want to purchase our latex tom suit. Because it is a full body suit, you’ll need a measurement for your waist. To get that measurement, you’ll need to put your arms to your sides. Now, find the bend in your arm. This is where your waist is. You’ll want to use that measurement to find your size. Use our size chart! There is also a link on the latex tom suit product page.

If you run into any trouble, give us a call at 1.866.945.2839 between 9 AM and 6 PM Monday through Friday. Or use our online help option! We'll be happy to chat with you and help!

Oh and guys, our brother store, TLS RubberGear will be at International Mr. Leather in two weeks (May 25-28th!). If you are planning on attending, stop by our booth and try on our latex in person! And if you are going to be attending DomCom next week, we'll see you there too. Busy, busy, busy but we love it!!

If the latex fits, wear it!

At The Latex Store, we get tons of questions regarding sizing. So, we thought that a focus on how to find your size in latex clothing would help answer some of your questions!

Our clothing and accessories come in all sorts of sizes. This varies among products, but most every product will have the option of small, medium and large. Some come with the extra small and extra-large option. And our plus size clothing can go from an XX to an XXXXX large. So, there is always bound to be something at The Latex Store that will fit you!

When determining your size, you’ll need a tape measure. You should remove your clothing and measure your body (hips, bust, waist, etc.). For instance, if you wanted to purchase this Hobble Skirt, you would need to measure your waist and hips. When you have those measurements, refer to the size chart on the Hobble Skirt product page or this size chart located in our FAQ section.

In order to gain the tight fit that latex is intended to have, you’ll need an inch of stretch. What does that mean? Well, let’s say your hips measure to 34 inches. Your hip measurement for latex will actually be 33 inches, to allow for an inch of stretch. Neat, huh? This will allow for that super sexy fit wearers of latex adore!

If you still have questions when determining you size, we can help! We have a live chat option under the online help header at the top of our page. You can send us an email from that same link. Or call us during our business hours (9 AM to 6PM M-F) at 1.866.945.2839. Don't hesitate to ask! The right fit is a must!
