Hi Gregg
We are very sorry your order was lost in transit by Royal Mail, as a third-party delivery service. There are some events beyond our control, and incidents like this are very rare. We were disappointed to hear this happened, and I believe our customer care team have made sure to refund you the full amount for the lost items. If you would like to place another order, please let us know, and we will be happy to help.

Hi sorry, these came up small for you. We offer a 45-day return policy and we are currently updating our site to reflect how our shoes are measured. While the majority of customers do find the sizing works for them, we appreciate that not everybody has the same experience.
If you reach out to our customer support via email or website with your details, they will be able to help you out.
Shoes are great
Shoes are great, slightly bigger in size but it brings a little more comfort if your on your feet all day, style is decent, did not expect them to be waterproof, nice bonus.

They did not fit properly so I spent £14 on next day delivery for blackhammer to tell klarna that they haven't received the item. Will not use again.
