New ball under the tree, fresh cossie for the first swim of summer, a goal for the backyard pool. If it's a Christmas gift, it needs to leave our Sydney warehouse in time. Here's when to get your order in.
The short version: order by Wednesday 16 December with standard shipping, or Thursday 17 December with Express, for delivery before Christmas to most of Australia. Shipping to WA, TAS or the NT? Order by Wednesday 9 December.
Order-by dates for Christmas delivery
These dates give us time to pick, pack and get your order to the carrier. Orders are processed within 2–3 business days, and we don't dispatch from Friday 12pm through the weekend.
| Shipping to | Shipping method | Order by |

| NSW, VIC, QLD, SA, ACT | Standard | Wed 16 Dec |

Regional and remote: Australia Post asks for extra time outside metro areas, so we recommend getting in a few days earlier. New Zealand and international: customs and overseas postal delays are out of everyone's hands. Order early and email info@kap7.com.au if you need a date.
Black Friday orders
Ordered in the Black Friday Sale (ends Monday 30 November)? We'll have sale orders on their way by Thursday 3 December, well ahead of Christmas.
Good to know
- These dates cover in-stock items. Custom team gear and made-to-order items run on their own production timelines. If you need custom gear before Christmas, talk to us first.
- The carriers will be flat out. Orders placed after these dates may still arrive in time, but the carriers can't promise it, and neither can we.
- Need it sooner? Pick Express at checkout. It's the fastest way to get it there.
- Questions? Email info@kap7.com.au and we'll give you a straight answer.
