Please continue to check back here for updates on our New York and Los Angeles stores.
UPDATE ON FREIGHT DELAYS.
In the best of times, producing and shipping internationally can be fraught with all kinds of issues. Unfortunately, during COVID times shipping is now especially difficult.
We have been notified by our factories and forwarders of significant delays in their ability to secure transit for our goods — there is a lack of vessels and containers as well as workers — all are operating over-capacity as the need and demand for overseas goods are at an all-time high.
As a result, ports are severely congested, leaving very limited options, and we have been advised to add at least one month to all of our lead-times. We apologize for any disappointment or inconvenience this may cause, and will constantly update with any new information as it becomes available.
Thank you for your kind patience and understanding as we work to bring you the style, quality, and comfort with the utmost transparency you have come to expect from AREA.
