I have a Gift Voucher purchased from your old (physical) store can I still use it?

Yes you can*! At this stage our current web site doesn't support vouchers purchased in-store, but please do contact us and we will make the necessary arrangement to make sure you can still get what your heart desires.  Send us an email at retrospective@redhotblue.co.za.

*Please note that only vouchers purchased at Retrospective Cape Town in our previous Montague Gardens location (City) are valid, but unfortunately vouchers purchased from the previous (LongStreet, Pretoria and Joburg) stores we are unable to validate as all stores were individually owned

Please see our measurement Guide lines on how to measure yourself.  We suggest that each of our online customers invest in a little tape measure to make your purchasing decision that much easier!
