Spirit Wear Ordering Windows

We do not keep Inventory on hand. We are fortunate to partner with a local business, Charleston Cotton Exchange, to produce our specially designed Spirit Wear. All Spirit Wear orders are submitted directly to Charleston Cotton Exchange via their website. Charleston Cotton Exchange then creates each piece on demand. This helps us to avoid taking up much-needed storage space at the School while ensuring that we can provide both staples and fresh and new items multiple times throughout the school year!

Click on the “Order Your New Spirit Wear Here” button above, and you will head over to the Charleston Cotton Exchange website to see our current Inventory and place your order during an “ordering window.”

We offer three (3) Spirit Wear “ordering windows,” which are designated time periods lasting approximately three (3) to four (4) weeks to order Spirit Wear from our virtual Spirit Wear store with Charleston Cotton Exchange.

Spirit Wear ordering windows for this school year are as follows:

• Back to School Sale: Opens August 3rd and closes on September 8th.

• Fall/Winter Sale: Opens November 2nd and closes November 20th.

• Spring Sale: Opens April 5th and closes April 23rd.

The Spirit Wear store opens at 9:00 AM on the launch date and closes at 9:00 AM on the closing date.

Unfortunately, Spirit Wear cannot be ordered outside of the designated “ordering windows,” so you will have to place your order in the next “ordering window.”

Unfortunately, no. Once an order is placed, no changes can be made.

All Spirit Wear is produced after the store closes to ensure every order is included in our bulk production run. Whether you place your order on the first day the store opens or the last day before it closes, all orders will be delivered at the same time. Please refer to the designated delivery dates listed below for when to expect your order.

Spirit Wear ordered during the three (3) ordering windows offered this school year will be delivered on or about:

• September 26th

• December 11th

  May 14th

All orders are hand-packaged and delivered with care to your student’s teacher and then distributed to students to bring home.

During checkout, please enter your student’s full name (first and last) along with their teacher in the designated field. This helps us ensure your order is delivered to the correct student, as many children share the same name. If your order includes multiple students, please list only the oldest child’s full name and their teacher. If more than one student or teacher is entered, we will use the teacher associated with the oldest grade level listed on the order form for order distribution.

All sales are processed through Charleston Cotton Exchange. Exchanges and refunds cannot be handled by the PTA and are subject to Charleston Cotton Exchange’s policies and approval. While every item is carefully quality-checked before distribution, manufacturing defects can occasionally occur. If you receive a damaged item, please email us with photos as soon as possible so we can coordinate a replacement. We are unable to replace items damaged through normal wear and tear.

You can reach out to us via email at hello@arcaepta.com with any questions.
