Jellycat does not publish a fixed, one-size-fits-all restock schedule, but there are some patterns that shoppers have noticed. Most restocks are for currently active (not retired) designs and happen during UK business hours on the official site.
Typical restock timing
Community FAQs report that new releases and restocks on Jellycat’s own website usually appear sometime between late morning and mid‑afternoon UK time, often around 10–11 a.m. or 2–3 p.m. on business days, though this is not guaranteed. Collectors advise checking product pages frequently or using “notify me when available” where offered, since exact dates often depend on shipping and supply issues.
How often restocks happen
Collector guides and fan sites describe a rough pattern where popular, non‑retired styles may be replenished every few weeks, with some sources suggesting something like a 2–4 week cycle for certain in‑demand lines, especially when supply is flowing normally. However, delays in manufacturing or transport can stretch this significantly, and occasionally older or even retired designs reappear when long‑delayed stock finally arrives.
Collections vs. ongoing items
Jellycat releases major new collections about twice a year (around January and mid‑year), plus smaller seasonal drops, and these are ordered by retailers months in advance. Many limited or seasonal pieces are not re‑ordered once that shipment sells through, so they effectively never “restock” beyond what shops initially receive.
Official site vs. retailers
Independent stockists each have their own restock rhythm, since they place orders per season and receive deliveries on different schedules. If something is sold out on Jellycat’s site, collectors often recommend checking authorized retailers or local toy and gift shops, which may still have stock even when the main site does not.
