Top notch service
July 29, 2023

I was in the store and the level of experienced support was impressive! I asked some specific questions about the various fits and styles of Birkenstocks and my sales person nailed it! She was very familiar with the brand and fit. This was something I had asked at another major retailer and they simply did not have this level of knowledge. Thank you Footwear etc for your passionate sales staff!

I made a mistake in billing address. A customer service rep called to inquire, corrected my mistake and shipped the shoes on the same day. They arrived sooner than expected.

Fun shoes by Ilse Jacobsen
July 1, 2023

Very good shopping experience. Timely delivery. However, I purchased these at a good price on sale. I would not have purchased at the full price. They are very expensive at full price.

Long shipping time
June 23, 2023

It took way longer than I thought it would take to get these shoes. I had to call customer service to find out where they were. The person I spoke to seemed legitimately wanting to help. I did receive them the next day.
