Disney4me Posted June 26, 2020 Report Share Posted June 26, 2020 Due to the global health crisis, a face mask is becoming an essential piece of clothing right up there with a Disney spirit jersey and a cute Loungefly backpack, especially when at Walt Disney World. Rainbow Mickey Face Mask If you’re like us, you were SUPER excited when Disney released their character face masks a few months ago. After all, if you have to wear a face mask, it might as well have Baby Yoda on it. Well, it definitely took a little while for the shopDisney masks to ship, and when they did — some folks were a little disappointed. So what’s the problem? Well…lots of guests who received their masks started to notice they run VERY small. A medium mask, which for most mask types would comfortably fit most adults, was almost painfully tight around one of our team member’s ears! And the small masks we received were WAY too small even for our six-year old mask tester (they’re basically infant masks). Most of the masks listed on the shopDisney site have a rating between one and three stars out of five. Yikes. Complaints range with most of them focusing on sizing and comfort issues. So, if your shopDisney masks have arrived and are leaving you a little disappointed — here’s what you can do! Ask shopDisney for a Refund First off, you can ask shopDisney for a refund. Now, keep in mind that returns processing is delayed with the current events, so this may take a while. Still, if you are REALLY unhappy with your masks, you can send them back. Face Mask Sizing Guide According to the shopDisney return policy, they will gladly exchange, refund, or credit the purchase directly from shopDisney if returned within 30 days of the shipping date. Keep in mind though, returned items have to be NEW in the original, unopened packaging with tags and tickets attached. The policy states, “no returns or exchanges will be accepted if the merchandise has been used or worn.” So, if you tried your mask on and decided it wasn’t for you, you might have some problems returning it. Still, if you think that your masks will be accepted (maybe you ordered multiple packages and just tried on one), you can return them using the pre-addressed label attached to the packing slip in your shipment. Disney-themed Cloth Face Masks ©Disney For any questions or concerns about returning your masks, you can reach out to shopDisney directly at (800) 328-0368 or via an email form. We’re REALLY hoping we can return these and get a larger size! See If You Can Alter It If refunds don’t work for you, see if you can make some alterations so that it hits the mark a little better. If the body of the mask is too small, sew (or ask a friend who can sew) to add on some extra coverage. Then you get to keep the fun design while still getting the fit you’re looking for! Face Mask If the elastics are the problem, there are a few solutions you can try. For one, you can try to extend the loops by attaching cloth or elastic to the existing loops to give them more size, or create a behind-the-head tie mask. There are also some products that can help with comfort issues!

Gift the Mask to Someone Else So, if you can’t refund them, and no matter the alterations (maybe you are totally NOT a professional seamstress and don’t even want to bother!) that Baby Yoda mask is just NOT sitting comfortably on your face, think about gifting it to someone else! We all need masks right now, and everyone has their preferences. Maybe a too small mask is just right for one of your kids or a friend. Cast Members Wash your mask and ask around! You might make someone’s day and get the masks off your hands! Do Some Research and Get a Better Mask So, what to do when the shopDisney masks are out of your hands? It’s time to get a better mask!
