Service was ok. Realised after leaving the store that the jacket I bought was 20% cheaper with Blacks online. Quite a significant difference. So maybe check online before buying in the store.

My wife sometimes finds it difficult to get the right shoes.
She could not have asked for more help and patience from sales assistant Lisa.
Came out with not one but two pairs of shoes.
Well done Lisa.

Dundee Black's store

The sales assistant George in the shoe department was most helpful in enabling me to select a pair of walking shoes which are comfortable for everyday wear and vegan friendly. I rate the staff in the Dundee store very highly. Their attention to detail to ensure the customer gets what they need is remarkable.

I hate shopping online and this impromptu in person experience in Dundee was so great because Jony was there. He was a knowledgeable and informed person which really helped me out.

I ended up getting 2 great pairs of shoes that are exactly what I was looking for and would have struggled to have confidence to buy online.

Above and beyond expectations of today

I called for a pair of leather waterproof boots, as the gortex ones I have did not keep my feet dry. The assistant George was absolutely brilliant, he explained that my gortex boots probably needed reproofing and explained how I could do this, providing the products I needed. George was very honest and suggested I try this and I may not need new boots. This honest approach reflects very highly on Blacks as a company. However I decided to still purchase a pair of boots and I had it in my head I wanted Hi Tech. George took the time to explain all about the qualities of the leather from different manufacturers and brought me several pairs across the ranges to try, demonstrating the differences in quality and price. I finally decided on a pair of Scarpa leather boots as George had also measured my feet and I am a 10.5 and Scarpa do half sizes in their range, George showed me how to test to see if my toe banged against the front of the boot, nobody has ever told me about this before, which surprises me as it is a great tip. George then provided the beeswax to treat the boots with and explained what to do. I wore the boots and was out all day in the snow beating moorland and marshland, I got a thorough soaking but my feet remained dry and the boots were comfortable all day. For the first time ever, on arriving home I did not feel the need to remove the boots ASAP. Thank you George you did Blacks proud, you answered all questions and explained in depth the logic behind the answers. You are a very switched on young man, and an asset to any company.
