By sneakersInn team · Updated
To shop online for clothes and shoes in Ghana without regret, know your measurements, read each size guide, ask the seller for real photos or a video, check the delivery fee, delivery time and returns policy before you pay, and choose pay on delivery when it's available so you can check the item first. Honest sellers answer questions clearly and tell you exactly what you're buying.
Before you order: the checklist
| Check | Why |
|---|---|
| Your measurements | Sizes vary between makers |
| The size guide | Converts your measurements to their sizes |
| Real photos or video | Shows the actual item, not a catalogue image |
| Exactly what the item is | Material, condition, and whether it's original or a replica |
| Delivery fee and time | Avoid surprises at the door |
| Returns policy | Know what happens if it doesn't fit |
| Payment method | Pay on delivery lets you check first |
| Contact | A WhatsApp number or phone that answers |
How do I get sizes right?
Measure yourself with a tape: chest, waist, inseam and foot length. Compare with the seller's size guide, not your usual size. For sneakers, see how to pick the right sneaker size.
How do I know what I'm buying?
Ask directly. A trustworthy seller tells you what the material is, whether an item is new or used, and whether it is original or a replica. We sell high-quality replica sneakers and say so on every product page and on our About our sneakers page.
Why is pay on delivery useful?
You see the item before you pay. In Greater Accra, our orders are paid on delivery, in cash or mobile money, after you've checked the pair.
What do our deliveries cost?
Delivery in Greater Accra costs GH₵30 to GH₵70 depending on the area and arrives within 24 hours (tomorrow). Outside Greater Accra it's GH₵40 by parcel service. Orders of 2 or more pairs ship free. See our delivery fees guide for every area.
What's our returns policy?
Returns are accepted for unworn items in their original packaging within 48 hours of delivery, after inspection. Every policy is on the facts page.
