Good quality Anti-Shock Innersoles

Having purchased & been very satisfied Grisport hiking boots I thought I would try out their Anti-Shock innersoles & after my walk yesterday I am so glad I did. Complete comfort from start to finish! Delivery was efficient via Royal Mail & for the quality of the product very good value. Will certainly buy these & their boots again.

I am on my third pair of walking boots…

I am on my third pair of walking boots from Grisport. Each pair has been comfortable from the get go and not once have I had a leak, despite them not being Gore-tex.

I have recently had to return my latest pair due to a fault. The return was easy and they have refunded the purchase price without any fuss. Great service.

As a result, I have purchased another pair, which arrived within 24 hours.

I really cannot recommend Grisport highly enough.

Grisport walking boots

I had my previous Grisport walking boots for years, they probably would have lasted another couple of years but I fancied some new ones. Same great quality, comfortable, and lightweight. Very happy with my purchase and would recommend 🙂

Not very good boots

I didn't purchase directly from Grisport but through Charles Clinkard but they are Grisport Boots so want to warn people to buy other boots.

I purchased Grisport Glide ladies leather waterproof walking boots in December 2020. By August 2023, I had to request a replacement due to a fault developing at the front, which led to water ingress. Unfortunately, the replacement pair developed the same issue, which I reported in March 2023.

The response I received from Charles Clinkard suggested that footwear will naturally experience wear and tear over time, and that the replacement pair had provided a reasonable lifespan. While I understand normal wear and tear, I remain concerned about the durability in this case, especially as the boots were only worn occasionally, typically at weekends and not every weekend.

Having previously owned a pair of Brasher leather walking boots that lasted over 10 years, my expectations for durability were understandably higher. In comparison, the repeated failure of a core functional feature—waterproofing—is disappointing and raises questions about the long-term reliability of this product.

Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear you are disappointed.

We would like to clarify that the original purchase was made in December 2020, nearly six years ago, and not directly from Grisport but through Charles Clinkard. Grisport footwear is covered by a 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects.

Despite the boots being well outside the warranty period, a replacement pair was provided in March 2023 as a gesture of goodwill. We understand your concern that the replacement pair has now developed an issue, but this has been reported almost three years after the replacement was supplied.

Waterproofing issues caused by a manufacturing fault would normally become apparent within the first few wears or early use, rather than after several years. Over time, all walking footwear is subject to natural wear and tear, flexing, treatment, storage conditions, and use, all of which can affect performance.

While we are sorry that the boots have not met your expectations, we do believe both the original pair and the replacement pair have provided service beyond the standard warranty period. For this reason, we are unable to offer a further replacement.

Grisport takes product quality seriously and we remain proud of the durability and performance of our boots when used and cared for appropriately.

Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear there has been an issue with your delivery.

We dispatch hundreds of orders every day using DPD, with a highly automated order and delivery system. Parcels are sent to the delivery address entered by the customer at the time of ordering, and our delivery success rate is 99.9%.

When a parcel is delivered to the address provided on the order and the tracking confirms delivery, we are not able to simply replace or refund the order without the matter being investigated through the courier process.

We appreciate that delivery issues can be frustrating, but we do not intentionally send orders to incorrect addresses or different parts of the country. If an incorrect delivery address was entered at checkout, this is outside our control once the parcel has been dispatched.

We are happy to review any tracking details and assist where possible, but we must follow the courier’s evidence and delivery procedures before any resolution can be offered.

still waiting for return to be processed.

Bought hiking boots, same size as other boots from grisport, too small. Returned them, almost a week ago. Heard nothing, called today, was told they get hundreds of returns and it would take up to 14 days for them to process my return. Then the guy put the phone down on me. Not happy. Make shoes the right size and you'll get fewer returns.

Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear you are unhappy with the returns process.

We process returns as quickly as possible once they arrive back with us. During busy periods, this can unfortunately take longer than we would like, which is why we advise customers that returns may take up to 14 days to be checked, processed, and refunded.

Regarding sizing, different styles of footwear can sometimes fit slightly differently depending on the shape, construction, lining, and intended use of the boot. We appreciate this can be frustrating, especially when ordering the same size previously worn in another Grisport style.

We are sorry the call ended in a way that left you dissatisfied. Our customer service team is here to help and will always try to assist, but we also expect all conversations to remain respectful on both sides.

Your return will be processed as soon as possible in line with our returns procedure.

Appalling customer service

I honestly don’t know where to begin. If you expect even a basic level of respect and support after making a purchase, I would strongly suggest avoiding Grisport. A very disappointing experience from start to finish and I never even received my order!

A great purchase

After having different walking boots I am so pleased that I purshased a pair of Grisport Reflex Walking Boots. From the first time of wearing them they were super comfortable which remains the case four months after then with the expectation that will happen for a long while.

Low quality shoes

Low quality shoes: The soles break extremely quickly.

On my newest pair both soles broke after only 2 days of wearing (less than 5km of walking)

Dear Wanders,

We are concerned to read your comments. However, it is important to clarify that the product referenced in your review was not supplied by Grisport UK.

Your purchase was made through the Dutch distributor, which operates independently from Grisport in the United Kingdom. The ranges distributed in Holland differ from those produced for the UK market, including differences in styles, materials, linings and product specifications.

As we did not supply this product, we are unable to investigate or resolve the issue on your behalf. We kindly ask that you contact the Dutch distributor’s customer service team directly, as they are responsible for the product supplied and will be able to assist you appropriately.

To avoid confusion for other customers, we would respectfully request that reviews relating to products purchased outside the UK distribution are directed to the relevant supplier.

Grisport UK remains fully committed to the quality and performance of all products supplied through our authorised UK retail partners and offers a one year warranty against manufacturing defects.

Finally, a hiking boot that doesn't dig into my ankles!

After testing the Grisport Reflex against high-spec offerings from Mountain Warehouse and Regatta, these were the clear winners. My biggest struggle with hiking boots is usually discomfort around the ankle—most brands tend to "dig in." However, the Grisport Reflex features thick memory foam padding around the collar that completely eliminates that pressure.
​The stability is also impressive. Thanks to their specific heel support system, my foot felt incredibly secure with zero vertical movement or heel slip. It’s a "locked-in" feel that gives you a lot of confidence on the trail. Excellent boots and a great company to deal with—I’ll definitely be a repeat customer.

New Dartmoor Boots

Just opened my new Dartmoor Boots from Grisport and immediately impressed with how comfy they feel. Looking forward to giving them a proper test out on a ski trip to Switzerland this weekend.

"require no breaking in and are comfortable straight from the box"

I read the words from my review title on a leaflet contained with my order, with a degree of scepticism, but having half an hour earlier put on my new 'Grisport Tilbury Walking Shoes' indoors to start wearing them in - I have to say Grisport are correct - these well-made walking shoes fit like a glove and are so comfortable, that I would happily go for a five mile walk now in them. This backed up with easy on-line ordering and swift delivery via DPD. I am one happy walker.

Customer service. What customer service?

Still no reply to any of my complaints on their online form about the missing gift pack from my order. Grisport offer an inducement to buy, (Value pack worth £34) don't supply it and now ignore my queries when I ask about it. That’s pretty low customer service.
The missing items are not the main issue here, it’s the sales tactics and obvious disregard for a customer. At least have the good manners to respond to my messages and rectify the problem.
The order was a Christmas gift so wasn’t discovered until later but that’s no excuse to ignore my query. As it happens, when the package arrived, two friends scanned the Grisport catalogue and marked some shoes they would like to buy but based on my experience, have shopped elsewhere. That’s two lost sales because of the lack of customer service. Costly.
As regards the shoes I bought, I can’t comment yet, they look good but most things look good out of the box, it’s how they perform over time that matters. I’ll give it five or six months and post a product review later. Judging from some of the comments on here, longevity may be an issue but I’ll check for myself.
Note to Grisport: Behaving considerately towards customers and honouring your sales pitch is part of the buying process, it can even lead to repeat business. But not on this occasion.

Dear Ms Doherty,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. We are sorry to hear that you feel disappointed and would like to clarify the situation for transparency.

Your order was placed on 27th November, during our Black Friday promotion period. During this time, the free walking value pack promotion was fully suspended and was not advertised, shown, or offered on our website, as Black Friday discounts replaced all other incentives. As such, the value pack did not form part of your purchase.

We did respond to your enquiry on 8th January, explaining this in detail, prior to your Trustpilot review being posted. We are therefore concerned by the statement that your messages were ignored, as this is not the case.

We appreciate that the order was intended as a Christmas gift and understand how frustrating it can be when expectations do not align. However, we cannot supply promotional items that were not active or advertised at the time an order was placed.

We take customer service seriously and always aim to respond promptly and fairly. We regret that this situation has left you with a negative impression and that it has influenced the purchasing decisions of others, which is never our intention.

We hope that once the footwear has been worn over time, it meets your expectations for comfort, durability, and performance. Should you experience any product-related issues in the future, our customer service team will of course be happy to assist.
