Incredible team here at Millets in Eastbourne.

We dealt directly with Phil and Tracey both of which very professional and knowledgeable on all the products.

Me and my girlfriend were after travel back packs for a 6 month venture across the south east of Asia.

And Phil and Tracey offered up their time and advice happily!

Great experience overall.

Safe to say I will be coming back for any other needs in this category.

Thanks Phil and Tracey!

Having severe osteoarthritis in my big toe joints I needed to replace my walking boots with something wider fitting and more comfortable to walk my dog in the forest.
Lauren was so helpful and patient trying to help me. She even measured my feet which I can’t remember happening since I was a child.
Attentive throughout Lauren repeatedly went and found boots for me to try on. I think we probably got through 7 or 8 different sizes and styles before I settled on a pair of Merrell Accentor 3.
Huge thanks to Lauren for her help and patience.

Quality and excellent customer service

While we went into Millets to get some good quality items in the sales, the customer service we received from Henry in the Eastbourne Branch was excellent.

Will definitely return.

Never before was shoe shopping such an insightful experience! My feet are dramatic 😂 (5.5 and too narrow for most brands). The people at Millets were super helpful. Lucky to have run into Phil - he took one look at my feet and understood what I needed and what won’t work. I was also short on time and rush buying right before the hike. Phil was patient and made sure the shoes are fit for use in the long run. Great experience!

Huge shoutout to Phil…

I want to give a huge shoutout to Phil at the Eastbourne branch of Millets for his exceptional customer service. Phil is incredibly knowledgeable about footwear, and his expertise helped me find the most suitable hiking boots for my needs. This isn't the first time I've turned to Phil for help with buying boots, and once again, he went above and beyond to ensure I found the perfect fit.

He’s always so helpful, patient, and attentive, making the whole process smooth and enjoyable. It's rare to come across someone so dedicated and passionate about what they do, and it’s clear Phil truly cares about providing the best experience for his customers.

I’ll always return to this branch for my outdoor gear, knowing I can rely on Phil’s fantastic advice and service. Thank you,

Phil couldn’t have been more helpful when we were looking for a new pair of walking shoes. In our opinion he went above and beyond, even coming in to work on his day off to help out the staff.

Great sales assistant

I went in to buy a straight replacement from my last hiking boots (I don’t really hike, I just walk around my allotment a lot). I asked for a size 7 from a young assistant who radioed for someone else and a lovely man called Phil appeared.
Phil took me the boot section, invited me to sit down while he measured my feet and lent me chunkier socks to put over my thin socks, advising me that although people buy footwear in the morning, it’s better to do that in the afternoon and feet often swell over the day.

Anyway, Phil bought the boots I requested but on checking how my feet stood in the boots said that my choice isn’t a great boot shape for my feet. He got me a slightly different pair (same price, nicer colour!) which I tried and this is the pair I have now, to wander about inside the house this afternoon to be sure they fit well.

Phil also showed me a different way to secure my laces so the boot doesn’t grip my ankles, a vast improvement.

Yes, I spent much more time in the shop then I planned to but I’m glad Phil was working this morning.
