Top Rate Company

This is my second purchase and review for this company. They really are as good as they say. Customer service is exceptional and they are literally at the end of the phone for any queries. They can’t do enough to help you and their products are great quality. Defiantly will reuse again!

Hi Simon

I'm very sorry you felt disappointed, this is not a normal situation for us and we felt we did handle it appropriately. I fully understand the irritation in the matter and as I mentioned in my email if any other shoes from this years collection take your fancy I'd be happy to offer them at heavily discounted price for yourself.

Anyone can write a Trustpilot review. People who write reviews have ownership to edit or delete them at any time, and they’ll be displayed as long as an account is active.

Companies can ask for reviews via automatic invitations. Labeled Verified, they’re about genuine experiences.
