If I could rate in the negatives I would. Worst customer service of any online shop I have ever experienced. Returned some shoes and it took 6 weeks for me to get the shoes back in the right size. Mak... See more

Terrible customer service. They take too long to respond, requiring multiple follow-up emails. By the time they reply, my query was no longer solvable as it was time-sensitive. The message I received... See more

Ted Okavango Backpack
I ordered the Ted backpack, which I had been eyeing for that past 7 years. I am not disappointed! High quality leather and craftsmanship. Shipped it to Chicago with minimal difficulty. Customer service was also very prompt to respond to any concerns.
Amazing customer service
Amazing customer service! They were quick to respond & help me sort out the issue I had within a few days. Friendly staff who get things done.
I am SO impressed with FOM
I am SO impressed with FOM. I ordered shoes for my fiance' on Thursday 14 Dec and they delivered the parcel on Friday 15 Dec. Literally the NEXT DAY! Talk about awesome service. I will buy ALL of my "vellies" from FOM. Thanks, guys :D
Ordered 4 items. 1 ordered item arrived.
Ordered 4 items on the freedom of movement website only to be told days later that 2 of the items were not in stock and I would be refunded for 2 of the items. 10 days later I received the remainder of the order and only one of the two remaining items was what I ordered. That makes a success rate of 25% for an online order. Shocking customer service.
they are a scam
they are a scam, wrong advertisement,they say its quality maybe it used to be but not anymore...i logged a complaint on the 6th August no one replied to my email twice untill i deced to go to Cavendish store personally and log it there.
They gave me an email and i cc it. I bought my son a pair of kicks in April and he accidentally stepped on a glass not even a big glass but because of the pattern of the sole and the quality of it , it went right in and tore the sole and straight to my son.
Lariska from customer care acknweledged the email and more than anything i picked up defence claiming that its the first time they expirience such and ofcause to me as well it is the first time that my son wears expensive sneakers and they get pierced. We buy sneakers everymonth and never once expirienced this.
Question is customer retention do you guys know that one customer to loose is too many? The worse part of it is being inefficient as if you dont need us as consumers.
Up untill this stage Lariska didnt even respond again when i asked her so where do we go from here? My son has a broken pair of kicks with deffective sole that i paid for and this means nothing to the company?????? maybe you forgot to say FOM is meant for people who live in surburbs who dont walk because your sole isnt catering for them.....im taking this to EFF i swear
Great product with super fast shipping.
Everything.
Quick and Hassle- free
My second online order placed with Freedom of Movement, easy and hassle free. The shoes are a perfect fit. Thank you for your excellent service.
Simple and effective
Simple and effective business model. No hidden agendas, what you see is what you get. FOM suits the current climate and I hope they continue on this train.
Love my sneakerd
FOM the brand of the FUTURE!!
The Quality of FOM footwear is out of this world!! I first got myself a pair of FOM X Kolisi standard field green Vellies in 2021, and they are still in great condition even to-date!! And that was my motivation to stick to the FOM brand. Now I also have the stylish and super comfortable Black coffee Tekkie that just takes my confidence to the stars whenever I rock them😁🎊. Lastly, I recently got myself and my Beautiful lady pairs of Toffee Vellies from the recent FOM 10th birthday SALE! of which the delivery arrived today! on 01/08/2023 perfect timing to gift my Babee with a beautiful pair of Toffee Vellies as a present on World Girlfriend's day😁😁😍🥳
THEREFORE THANK YOU!! FOM and like the slogan of FOM "KEEP MOVING!"
