The cover charge is a flat fee paid before swapping your garments to cover the cost for an even exchange.

If you bring a bag following our accepted garments guide, you leave with a bag of new ones. If you bring one garment/accessory, you leave with one. An even exchange does NOT mean you must exchange a shirt for a shirt or a necklace for a necklace.
