Poor customer service
October 26, 2025
Updated review

Poor customer service. They did not try and help me get my shoes through another source. They told me to go through their website. They used to do this for me but not anymore.

Excellent
October 25, 2025

I found a good price and read good reviews on line about the reputation of the company and noticed that the distribution center was on the west coast which meant faster delivery times for me. Boots were recieved within days and I couldn't be happier.

The tennis she is the only one I have ever found that squeaks when walking. I'm hoping that the sound disappears in time with use.

Really needs to be tried on.
October 1, 2025

Wide in the heel for me. Overall, the right shoe seemed looser. I don't always get the same size in this brand.
