Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently praise the fast and efficient delivery service, often noting that items arrive sooner than expected. Many people also highlight the excellent pricing, finding products cheaper than on other sites and appreciating the great value. However, some customers were dissatisfied with product quality, reporting issues like faulty soles or shoes creasing after minimal wear. A number of people also experienced problems with incorrect sizes being sent, particularly with Crocs, and found the customer service unhelpful or unresponsive when trying to resolve these issues. The lack of free returns was also a point of frustration for some, adding to the cost when items needed to be sent back.

Very quick delivery of Birkenstock…

Very quick delivery of Birkenstock shoes, original ordered direct from Birkenstock but they cancelled my order thankfully 😂 as I paid a fraction of the price and got quicker delivery 🚚. Highly recommend

Excellent product,one happy customer!

The items I wanted were competitively priced on your website so I ordered them from yourselves as they were the cheapest I could find for the exact product I desired. They arrived well within time of the estimated delivery. Product was excellent when received. One happy customer!

First order with this company and order…

First order with this company and order not received by me.
States delivered on 14.03.2026 and we were away on the 14th and 15th.
Return home and unable to locate the delivery.
Asked neighbours but nothing.
I contacted the company about this and asked for my money back due to non receipt of the order still waiting for a refund!
I will never use this company again nor recommend.
Really bad customer service!

Good not received and no support

Having paid for next day delivery I still haven't received my boots after 5 days. The response to my enquiries keeps referring me to Royal Mail with no satisfaction regarding why I haven't received them. Very disappointing.

Delivered faulty shoes that creased on…

Delivered faulty shoes that creased on the first wear. A very large crease across the front not a small one. They mentioned the wear is normal but the shoes were only worn once when it happened. Clearly a quality and stitching issue in the shoes. Poor customer service. Probably would not order from them again also they don’t offer free returns which is a major drawback.

Dear Joseph,

We're sorry you experienced an issue with your shoes.
As mentioned on our email to you, unfortunately, leather shoes do crease with wear and this can't really be avoided, or considered a fault.

If you are unhappy with them you are more than welcome to return your shoes. We understand that return costs can be frustrating, and we truly appreciate your feedback.

If there’s anything else we can do to help, please don’t hesitate to contact our customer service team.

I purchased some hush puppies boots through Freeman Willis and Hardy in October. Unfortunately one of the boot soles has collapsed - letting in water. Freeman Willis and Hardy we were quick to reply to my email with images of the damage and offered a full refund.

The company are great

The company are great. Extremely helpful when my parcel was 3 weeks late. Even refunded me the price I paid for next day delivery with out me asking . The sale prices are fantastic. This was my first time using this company I was on Google looking for wellies for my husband and came across a pair from there company with a fantastic price . But I do not have trust in there delivery company parcel force. And they do not use any other delivery company nso for this reason I will be extremely cautious shopping with them again . Sad as there prices are fantastic and when my husband wellies did arrive they were every thing he was looking for .
