When you sign up, you’ll complete a profile about your outdoor activity preferences that will allow us to provide you with appropriate items when variations exist (i.e. size or activity-specific items). While there may be months where everyone receives the same box, most months will have multiple variations. The intent is to put a box in your hand that best represents your recreational interests.
Your first Cairn Box will arrive 1-2 weeks after you sign up (note that international deliveries can take up to 3 weeks). All following boxes will arrive the middle of the month, with tracking information sent out 3-4 days ahead of time.
Obsidian subscriptions are shipped the first week of March, June, September, and December. Sign up any time of the year to receive the following collections...
Depending on your location, Obsidian may be shipped either USPS or FedEx (note that international deliveries can take up to 3 weeks). If you provide a PO Box, we may reach out and request a physical address.
When you sign up, you will be charged for the duration you have selected (1-, 6-, or 12-month for our monthly service or every 3-months for our quarterly Obsidian service). All subscriptions* auto renew on the 1st day of their renewal month.
*One exception: 1-month subscribers who sign up after the 20th of the month, will be billed on the 10th day of their second month. Starting with their third month, they will fall into our standard 1st of the month billing cadence.
Yes, but we'd hate to see you go. If you decide to say goodbye, the auto-renewal at the end of your current term will be canceled.
