Was able to speak with a person! Super customer service!
I have never had trouble with this company and this is how I purchase most all my shoes. As long as I stick with brands I am familiar with, I never have a problem!
Received sleepers, delivered to our pick-up area, no problems
Found the shoe I had been looking for in my size for weeks. Arrived in 5 days in perfect condition.
Get great advice/recommendations in store - they really listen to what I'm looking for. Service online is always fast & efficient. The few times I've resorted to another online provider have ended in hassle & disappointment. So now it's Footwear Etc. all the time!
Shoes have never failed to be just what was described, and the shipping time is faster than most. Always easy to order and get quickly, and if I have to return (which I think I've done just once?), stopping in the store makes it easy.
Great shoes. Amazon has me spoiled on delivery. 8 or 9 days is too long for me
I returned the item due to size and reordered and chose a different and more expensive style, but was NOT able to receive the same coupon discount…. Not fair practice…
Great site with so many choices. Just what I wanted at an amazing price.
I didn't get email that the order was received or shipped, however I contactacted the seller who answered right away and the email was in my promotions folder! Thanks so much for your prompt response.
While the process was painless, I do wish the lines of communication was a bit better. I ordered and paid for my shoes and I received no communication until a week later when I got a notice that my shoes would be delivered the next day. A simple advisory note that they have been shipped would have worked wonders. Especially since there was a statement that most all orders are shipped within a day or two.
I like this brand. Glad you had it. I would buy more.
Exactly what I needed, happy with the shopping experience
No complications, good selections, easy to use, good prices,
I bought these shoes for their cute appearance and overall comfort, garnering compliments the first day I wore them to work. But as the day wore on they soon seemed to "loosen," and I realized they're too big. I'm a clear size 7M, for which the accompanying conversion chart advised European size 38 to fit 7-7.5 American feet. I'm now trying to wear thicker socks and considering ways to add padding so the shoes don't "flop" when I walk. Footwear Etc. itself isn't the problem - it's the shoes and advised sizing. The store was incredibly fast and professional with delivery and even included a message in the box from an employee hoping I will enjoy the shoes, which I do love and am hoping I can remedy or replace. Buyers should be mindful of sizing when ordering online with no opportunity to try them on first.
I have been wearing variations of these sandals for over 8 years. They are so comfortable and good for your feet. My chiropractor always commends me on my choice.
Good experience both ordering, in delivery time, and in the actual product.
Communication and order tracking was great. Shipping was free which is great but it took a little longer than I would have wanted
Thank you for making ordering so easy. The quality and speed of delivery were outstanding!
Great shopping experience. Reliable product and timely delivery. I did get a call to confirm my delivery address, which I thought was a little odd, but everything else went smoothly and I got the shoes I wanted
I thought purchasing a "higher quality", no-show sock would make a difference, but these aren't any better than the less expensive ones. They fall off of your heels immediately when walking. I will not be buying again.
Answer: Hello Jean, Our transit times vary but range between 5-7 days depending on the destination. As for our return policy we are proud to offer our Easy 30-Day Return Policy: Products in new, unworn condition can be returned for a refund for up to 30 days from the original date of purchase. For shipped orders, this 30-day window begins on the day of order delivery. Thank you Footwear etc
Answer: Hello Jean, Which sandals are you referring to? Please email us at [email protected] or call 858-613-1221 to speak to the Rancho Bernardo store directly to see if they have what you are looking for, or if we need to bring them in from another one of our locations for you to pick it up in Rancho Bernardo. If you prefer to purchase online, you can do a 'buy online and pick up in store' option, but if it's in a store not near RB, it will say it will have to be shipped.
Answer: Hello Ganga, thanks for reaching out! It looks like the Men's Hoka Bondi 9 Drizzle/Downpour Mesh isn't available in the size 7 wide.
