Shop COS Europe.
Deliver it to USA.

COS is H&M Group's minimalist, London-based label — clean-lined, architectural wardrobe staples in premium materials (merino, cashmere, wool-blend, organic-cotton jersey, recycled nylon) that look triple their price. The European site is where the brand actually lives: the fullest catalogue, complete colour and size runs, earlier stock, and Europe-first capsules and design collabs like COS x HAY that never reach the US edit. Crucially, COS sets near-identical numeric prices across currencies instead of converting them, so the EUR or GBP ticket usually undercuts the US price on the same garment — one widely-cited comparison found a printed A-line dress at about $78 via the UK versus $99 on cos.com/en-us, roughly 21% off one mid-priced item. That European price already includes ~20-21% VAT, so the headline saving is conservative.

Forward the pieces COS is genuinely known for: the Clean Cut T-shirt, expertly-knit merino and cashmere jumpers, tailored wide-leg trousers, and the brand's pillar outerwear — trenches and funnel-neck wool coats. The economics work best on a consolidated box of several pieces (a tee, a knit and trousers), where the per-item price gap plus a single shipping leg beats buying the same items on the US site.

COS's primary scale is EU sizing, and the brand is known to run large and boxy by design. Structured pieces — shirts, shirt-dresses, wide-leg trousers and outerwear — are intentionally roomy with dropped shoulders, so many US shoppers size down for a neat fit; knitwear is loose with stretch. As a rough rule, the EU number is roughly your US women's numeric size plus 30-32 (so EU 38 ≈ US 6-8, EU 40 ≈ US 8-10), with UK running about 4 sizes above US. Because that offset varies by garment, the EU column is your anchor, not the US label you usually wear. Footwear is EU sized and runs true to size: EU 40 ≈ US 7 women (US 7.5 men) / UK 6.5.

This matters because a European COS order can't be conveniently returned from the US, so treat each buy as effectively final. Match the EU column below rather than your usual US label number, and lean on the brand's true-to-size / size-down notes on the product's own size guide before ordering. Our team can sanity-check a fit against your measurements before you order to the EU forwarding address you claim free at registration.

When you buy from COS Europe and ship to the USA, your forwarding cost tracks weight, so knowing how COS pieces add up is the fastest way to predict your bill. A Clean Cut cotton tee is light at roughly 0.13-0.17 kg, most knitwear (merino jumpers, zip-ups) lands around 0.45-0.7 kg, and tailored trousers run ~0.4-0.6 kg — so a typical 2-4 item order of flat pieces sits at a manageable weight. Add ~0.1-0.2 kg per item for COS's tissue, garment protection and the box.

The real weight and volume drivers are the coats: wool-blend and double-faced wool trenches commonly run ~1.2-2.0 kg and ship bulky, so their volumetric (dimensional) weight often exceeds their actual weight. Couriers bill the higher of the two, so flat, dense pieces like trousers bill close to real weight, while a fluffy boiled-wool coat is where volumetric weight bites.

On the European/UK site COS is generous: 30 days for full-price items and 14 days for sale items, on top of the EU statutory 14-day right of withdrawal, with refunds to the original payment method within 14 days of receipt; items must be unworn, clean and tagged. The catch for a US shopper is that the prepaid return label in the box is a domestic EU label, and COS deducts a small return fee (around €4 in Germany). There's no convenient consumer path for sending an EU-origin parcel back from the US — cross-border returns are slow, costly and may not be honored — so a forwarded COS order should be treated as effectively final once it leaves Europe.

The practical move: inspect and, if needed, return within the EU before forwarding — for example back to the warehouse while the window is still open — rather than shipping back from the US. And because COS runs large and boxy by design, get the fit right the first time: many US shoppers size down on structured pieces (EU 38 ≈ US 6-8), while knitwear runs loose.
