Ladies boots

Ladies boots, but bought them in a 42 as they look unisex and they fit just fine.
Over the years have collected nine pairs of Pozu in the family from trainers to boots and we love the shoes and the ethical values of the company.

Hi Elisabeth.

Thank you for leaving your thoughts and feedback on TP.

Really pleased to hear that everything has worked out well, great news, especially considering the challenges we have faced with courier companies in the last 4-8 weeks, its been a real challenge.

I will pass on your feedback to the warehouse and the team that have worked tirelessly during the last 4-6 weeks, through the COVID challenges, thankfully they remain safe and well.

Enjoy your Po-Zu products and thank you for choosing Po-Zu, as we are fully aware of the huge amount of choice you have available.

These Boots are Gorgeous!!!!!!!!

These boots are absolutely beautiful!!!!
I live in Australia and so I ordered them two months ahead of when of when I needed them to arrive, as they came from London. They arrived four days after ordering and I was mindblown! The boots were stunning and the fit was spot on! My mum always said that if you buy quality, you only buy once, and that is what Po Zu is. Beautiful, Comfortable, and Ethical! Buy from Po Zu, people. They are are a team with a great idea and a world changing purpose!

Morning Isabeau,

Thank you for leaving your feedback on Trust Pilot, i will ensure that the relevant teams review your comments. Design and customer service teams especially.

We are delighted that you are pleased with your purchase, great news.

You were lucky with the prompt shipment as we have been experiencing massive issues with couriers companies for the last 4-6 weeks now, i'm guessing its been down to COVID infections and staff shortages, like we have all faced, however the ability to speak to anybody in customer services, in an attempt to help, in the key courier companies has been a nightmare.

Probably non-existent !

The boots are hand made in Portugal, and have been a hugely popular item within the collection for the last 4-5 years.

Lets hope they continue to keep you smiling and at the same time, warm, dry and comfortable!!

We all understand the huge choice you have at your disposal when you shop on line, so thank you for your continued support.

Stay safe.

Best wishes,

David.

I love the Butterfly trainer

I love the Butterfly trainer. They look classy enough to be worn as casual workwear and also last really well – I bought my first pair in 2020, the exact same design. This time I bought two of the same pair in the sale! Even better that they are sustainable.

Hi Sophie,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback, i will ensure that the design team review your feedback when they meet next week.

Great news about the Butterfly, happy you were able to pick up two pairs.

We have updated the line for SS22, all from the sample great supplier in Sri Lanka however updated designs, with some great new branding and colour applications. We hope to land this line around Mid March 22.

Thank you again for shopping with us, we are well aware you have a huge choice at your disposal, so you support is really appreciated.

Best wishes,

Unexpected decline in customer service

I currently own 9 pairs of Po-zu shoes, and have always found their customer service to be efficient, courteous, and generally very helpful. I love the company ethos and the shoes I have are well made and generally excellent.
I am therefore especially disappointed to have placed an order on the 20th December and received no further communication after the initial email confirmation. I wrote on the 5th January to gain a shipping update, and have heard nothing.
I'd ordered two pairs of slippers, which have now been further reduced in the sale, while I'm still waiting for any indication that my order will be fulfilled. The Ella shoes are not even appearing on the website anymore, which I feel bodes ill.
I do understand the limitations and difficulties brought by Covid, but really expected much more from a previously trusted and loved brand.

Hi Tara,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

I have replied to your e mail that you sent this evening with an update.

The two pairs of slippers have been dispatched and will be with you early next week, i am afraid the final item has sold out and not available, we have refunded this, in full this evening.

We have experienced issues with our warehouse, having to close for 10 days and losing 90% of our staff with COVID related illnesses. I am delighted to say that all 4 warehouse staff are safe and well and fully recovered.

Apologies but the staff remain a thoroughly important asset in the business and they must come first.

Losing the ability to access and operate through our warehouse was a real challenge and caused us noticeable issues at our busiest time of the year.

You are 1005 correct the level of service hasn't been up to our normal level and for that please accept my apologies, we are working tirelessly on the back log and trying where we can to speak to as many of our customers daily, as we can.

Thank you for your support.

Best wishes,

David.

Hi Nicky,

Happy New Year!!!

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review.

The Piper is a great boot, hand made in Portugal by a great factory, its been one of our best selling products for the last 3-4 years, with minor amendments each season.

Fingers crossed that they will remain comfortable & keep you warm and dry!!

Great news with regards to the delivery as we have experienced massive issues with couriers and shipments in the last 6-8 weeks, unprecedented really, all blamed on COVID, unfortunately the level of shipping itself as well as the follow up customer service has been appalling.

Great news your boots arrived on time and your getting to enjoy them!!!

Thank you again for your support, we are aware you have a huge choice available to you.

Stay safe.

Best wishes,

Hi Yasmin,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your thoughts on Trust Pilot.

These reviews are really helpful to the business and allow a platform for our customers to leave their thoughts and opinions, which we share internally with the relevant teams and listen to.

I will personally make sure that the design teams, our warehouse (who have been really suffering with COVID issues) and our customer service team, all receive a copy of your review.

The boots are hand made in Portugal, in a great factory, with excellent ethics and working conditions.

Really pleased that the fit is great as being able to get an accurate fit with boots is a real challenge, brilliant news.

Thank you again Yasmin and continue to enjoy your boots.

Best wishes,

David.

Men's VIM boots

Instead of bothering me with this…

Instead of bothering me with this questionnaire, focus more on getting the product out the door to your paying customers first!

I understand from your responses to other bad reviews that you’re short-staffed due to quarantaine measures, and I don’t have to walk around barefoot (yet), but if the first communication I receive from your end is not an apology and an update when you WILL get around to sending me my purchase, but instead a rather annoying request for a PRODUCT & SERVICE REVIEW... You can’t really expect me to give you a positive rating.

EDIT: I’d like to amend my review with a response to David: Thank you for your quick response. I am quite understanding of the challenges your business is facing, but as always communication is key. A simple e-mail with an update of the situation would prevent a lot of grief.
All that being said, I am still in need of proper sustainable & ethical boots, but my old ones might just last a few (3) weeks more.

Thank you for your feedback and please accept my apologies that the level of service hasn't been anywhere near what we would expect.

The automated review request is being withdrawn as its annoying and unnecessary.

We have had our challenges - there is absolutely no getting away from that and when people are concerned we take this seriously.

OK your particular boots unfortunately will not be shipped, as we do not have your size available, i will authorize a full refund immediately. This particular style exceed our own expectation in the run up to the Christmas period.

Considering your own experience your probably will not be interested, however the VIM is just being ship from Sri Lanka to our warehouse as we have been able to obtain more production at short notice and will be with us in around 3 weeks.

Please accept my apologies for this experience and for the business not being able to deliver a product you ordered.

Thank you for your patience.

We hope to see you again on the store if your able to help the existing boots last a few more weeks!!

Appreciate your understanding.

Stay safe.


Best wishes,

David.

Great boots and excellent assistance from David

I ordered a pair of Piper boots as a Christmas gift. David was EXTREMELY helpful and personable with the process, and with a couple questions and requests I had. The boots were a HUGE hit, and the excellent customer service was the cherry on top. We will absolutely do business with Po-Zu again if the need arises. Thanks David!

Hi Ryan,

Thank you, very kind.

I'm afraid you have me again as we are struggling with staff sickness within the business, so its all hands to the deck!!! We have experienced a challenging 2-3 weeks with COVID, staff sickness, (thankfully all the employees are safe and fully recovered), poor service by our courier partners and a warehouse closure, all part of the joys of owning a business!!!

Really happy that your experience was positive, this is what we all aim to achieve. Sometimes we do make mistakes and errors happen with our external partners, but we always try and help, be transparent, and look at ways as to how we can resolve any issues that could crop up.

Thank you again for your kind words.

Hope to see you again soon on the site, BTW hopefully soon, we will be opening a USA distribution hub which will make shipping much faster and allot cheaper.

Best wishes.

Always Deliver Quickly

Po-Zu's products are all high quality and I have been buying from them for some years now. It's always lovely to know that the products you're buying aren't damaging the world and that the people who made the products were treated well.

Hi Sophie,

Happy New Year!!

Thank you for your feedback, this is really important to us understand the climate in the outside world and a great way to connect to our customers.

I could not have written that better myself, that is brilliant and i will make sure i share this with everybody in our team and our suppliers, this makes such a difference and genuinely makes everything worth it.

Thank you for your support Sophie, its really appreciated, as we know you have a huge choice available / on offer although at the same time there is a huge amount of green-washing with false claims etc, which we hope will begin to monitored very soon.

May i ask you a huge favour.

I like to often use quotes in our marketing material, i have to ask permission if we could use your feedback as a simple quote with your sign off as Sophie - London. Nothing else to identify you at all, we were looking for three articles and up till this evening had two, so this would make the initiative complete.

Understand 100% if you prefer not to as this is your choice.

Thank you again-stay safe.

Best wishes,

David.

Evening Sally,

Thank you for your review, although its clearly nowhere near the quality we are used to or would like to see.

Thank you for your patience.

I have e mailed you through your private a e mail address with a couple of options to this delay in shipping your order.

We have as i have outlined been struggling with staff in the warehouse and our office with staff having to self isolate with COVID, our warehouse was closed for 10 days with no access allowed to anybody 1 week prior to the Christmas break.

Thankfully all of the staff are safe and well and recovered 100%.

Please accept my apologies and we hope to hear from you soon.

Stay safe and best wishes for 2022.

Thank you

David.

Update: Really pleased now……

The slippers are great but too large for me in my usual size. I’ve ordered a size down and look forward to having them. UPDATE: The ‘size down’ arrived very quickly and are a perfect fit. I am really pleased with them (and will post the originals back on Monday). Thank you Po- Zu!

Hi Camilla,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts, its really appreciated.

We have experienced horrendous issues with normally reliable couriers over the past 4-6 weeks, which has been in the main blamed on COVID and staffing issues or the lack of staff.

We also experienced our own internal issues relating to COVID where our warehouse was closed and staff had to self isolate for 10 days, thankfully all the staff are now safe and well and back to work.

I do apologise about the level of service that you received, although thank you so much for your understanding and patience.

Thank you for your support and please do your best to stay safe and well.

Best wishes for 2022.

Morning Camille,

Hope you had a wonderful Christmas.

Thank you for leaving your feedback.

The Trust Pilot platform is an important tool for us a s we grow and learn from our feedback and more importantly where we can act upon the feedback / suggestions we receive.

I will share your feedback with the design team as well as our supplier in Portugal.

We are delighted that you are happy with the boots, especially as the upper material is brand new for us. Sourcing of new alternative materials is essential and the Vegea material seems to be something that we can work with on a long term basis.

I appreciate your support as we all know that you have a huge choice available to you on line, so thank you.

Have a safe 2022.

Hi Kerry,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review, really appreciated.

Trust Pilot is an important platform for us as a business, as it allows genuine thoughts and feedback from clients who have purchased and experienced our brand and our products!!

We always share the reviews we receive with the relevant teams, so the design team and the supplier in Portugal will certainly be made aware of your positive feedback, which is awesome.

The upper material used in this product is brand new and receiving allow of positive feedback which is great as often sourcing and locating suitable alternative materials is the most challenging task we have, in developing the line.

Really appreciate you supporting the brand as we are aware of the huge choice you have available on line, thank you.

Fingers crossed that the boots remain as comfortable as ever, keep you dry, warm and comfortable in the coming winter months.

Happy 2022, stay safe and thank you again for your support.

Best wishes,

David.

Thank you for your feedback.

I'm afraid we have been struggling with COVID and the implications this brings, with warehouse closures and staff sickness.

I am hoping that on Tuesday we will be ready and up to date with all the returns and your order will be processed.

We will have our full compliment of staff and we will be up to date come Tuesday evening.

I am afraid we can only raise the refund when the goods have been inspected and authorized, while these issues have been on going we have not been able to keep up to date with the returns.

Please accept our apologies regarding the delay and thank you again for your patience.

Thank you.
