Avoid

I am not normally one to write poor reviews but felt this firm needed one.I wouldn’t use or recommend this company to anyone. Delivery was late and to be honest the trainers looked as though they were repurposed and not brand new with the yellow staining to white trainers. Fortunately as I had never heard of the company before I purchased the goods thru Klarna. I sent everything back and raised a dispute for how legit the item was. I was due a £59 refund and they sent me £29 back. I have again emailed the company and disputed this with Klarna. Please do not use and source thru other legit suppliers.

Hi Sarah, thanks for raising this. If the trainers appeared yellowed on arrival, that would fall under a condition issue and a full refund should apply.

Please email help@sidekicks.co.uk with your order ID and pictures of the shoe so we can review this properly and resolve it for you as quickly as possible, thank you!

Hi Oksana,

We’re really sorry to hear this - that’s not the experience we want anyone to have.

If an incorrect item was sent, it should have been treated as a full refund with no restocking fees deducted.

Please email help@sidekicks.co.uk with your order number so we can look into this properly and make sure it’s resolved correctly. If a mistake was made on our end, we’ll fix it.

Placed 2 orders both cancelled by Side Kicks

Placed 2 separate orders and both were cancelled with no initial reason given. I had to send an email inquiring the reason for the cancellations and was given the response that it was an issue with their supplier and the supplier has been issued a fine and I would receive a $10 credit for any future purchase. Sorry Side Kicks I’m a true sneaker head… I care more about having those shoes I ordered than the 10 measly dollars you’re offering.

Hi Francisco,

Sorry about this - we know how frustrating it is when an order gets cancelled, especially when it’s for a pair like that. You’ve clearly got great taste, those are not easy to source at all.

We know the $10 credit doesn’t replace the disappointment, but it was meant as a gesture while we make things right.

We hope we get the chance to win you back in the future!
Appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback.

Shocked & disappointed

Never purchased from this company before, but I saw mostly positive reviews, so i ordered some shoes on their website.

The shoe box arrived completely battered, and the shoes were missing the authentication tag. I emailed support and they didn't respond until i left them a negative review here.

They offered for me to send the shoes back to them to add the tag (and risk more damage when they return) or a £10 partial refund.

How does a company that boasts about their authentication process forget an authentication tag??

There are a few other reviews complaining about the same box damage too. Wish i'd noticed this before ordering. A box which is falling apart at the seams decreases collector value. They either send you a broken box and hope you don't complain, or they don't even try to ship it with any care at all.

You can see in their responses how they take 0 blame or accountability for their own poor service. Avoid this company if you don't want to deal with the headache.

Hi Elliott,

Thanks for raising this and sorry for the experience - there should have been an authentication tag included, so we definitely want to look into this properly.

Please email help@sidekicks.co.uk with your order number so we can arrange a return and have the pair re-authenticated and re-tagged for you.

We’d also appreciate it if you could include photos of the shoebox and packaging. This allows us to compare the condition against how it left us, determine whether any damage occurred in transit, and take the appropriate next steps. If the issue was caused during shipping, we’ll look to credit your account accordingly.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention - we’ll make sure it’s sorted.
