Bought a couple pair to occasionally use at work. Happy with the shipping and looks of the shoes but the quality seemed to be lacking for the price. Wore one of the pairs maybe ten times and the shoe... See more

Shoes took over 3 weeks to deliver and were not even in a box, just wrapped in bag. They were way too small and I ordered a size bigger. They also had a strange chemical odor to them. Worst is that it cost over 20% of the sale price to return with restocking and shipping.

WARNING
I purchased a pair of shoes less than 12 months ago and they are falling apart. I reported this to Gatesby and they only offer a refund or replacement up to 6 months old. I would not buy any more shoes from this company

Gatsby and their Customer Service DOES NOT care about customers and DOES NOT want repeat business.
RUN from GATSBY and DO NOT buy their products. I have never had worse Customer Service. Will NEVER buy their products again.
DO NOT BUY GATSBY!

Great experience and fast response to my emails. Was able to get my order corrected almost immediately. Can't wait to get these shoes in for me and my son.

First off- a repeat customer for 3 pairs of shoes. After 2.5 months on the third pair- they literally fell apart while husband was wearing them to work out of our home state (so no other shoe availability). He had to purchase something immediately. He took pictures knowing I wasn’t going to believe him. Contacted customer service and they requested a picture of the tongue of shoe for size- I literally just sent in my previous order and the pictures. They refused to replace saying the tongue gave the size to reorder. So does the order number I already gave you. If they don’t stand behind their products with good customer service then I’m not purchasing anymore.

I have purchased 8 pair of Gatsby shoes for myself and a few for my sons. The first time I had some come apart, heel tore away from the shoe, I emailed and received a response that evening. By morning I received an email telling me a new pair were on the way! A great company and a great shoe!

Shoes are great! Come as ordered and in good condition! Customer support is quick to respond, professional, and helpful!

The advertisement shows brown shoes with black toe for sale. Upon arrival the shoe only shows brown, no classy black highlight. It seems bait and switch to me. If I can get the one advertised, I would like to. Also now I find out that you’re charging me shipping when you have free shipping advertised. This is not a good experience. I like my other pairs, but this one has started out all wrong.

Informative. And courteous. I would however have liked an eta on the refund.

My first pair of Gatsby shoes were great but that unfortunately was not the case with the second and last pair. That second pair were too tight so I requested an exchange for half size larger. I was told it would cost me another $30

I bought Gatsby shoes in December 2024. I wear them on Sunday so they still look like new. The front of the sole separated from the shoe. There are no signs of any adhesive that bonded the sole to the shoe. I sent a message and pictures to customer support. They responded that my concerns were noted but fell outside of their 6-month window. I found their staff to be inflexible and pandering with their comments. My shoes clearly had a manufacturing issue and Gatsby didn't care. I don't recommend Gatsby to anyone.

I owned shoes for 7 months and wore 8 times. Soles fell off shoe . When I reported , your advisor said „sorry, only 6 month warranty. Your shoe is obviously garbage.

The return policy is not friendly. If you wear the shoes off of carpet or even walk in them (they crease instantly) you CANNOT RETURN FOR REFUND. They are not comfortable. Even after putting in dr scholl inserts. Subpar.

The level of excellence in customer service and the professionalism presented to me, give me a great sense of satisfaction in doing business with Gatsby Shoes, as my shoe company of choice.

I purchased 2 pair of shoes from Gatsby in late August 2024. In October 2025, the soles of one pair fell apart. When I contacted Gatsby they basically told me it was unfortunate that the soles didn't come apart within the first 30 days, and that I was on my own. So in short, if you purchase their shoes, they will not last for more than 12-14 months. I will not be purchasing anything from this company in the future.

Here's my review
I have purchased at least 3 pair of Gatsby shoes. Always loved the fit and comfort wearing them
This time I had to wait almost a month to get them and when I received them they were extremely tight. Maybe because a different style or whatever.
Then I need to return them and you want a $30 re stocking fee for a $90 pair of shoes
I guess I have pay to send them back to China
Really disappointed
So Gatsby sends me reply letting me know their return policy is clearly stated.. true
So just to let everyone know if you order shoes and need to return thrm you either take a credit or pay a absurd fee to return them. Great scam
They have no store to return shoes so no matter how you look at it they make money so BE VERY VERY CAREFUL WHEN ORDERING YOUR SHOES FROM THE CHINA SHIPPED SHOES.
