Many reviews describe uneven service in stores. Some employees get praise for attentive, effective help, while others are described as rude or dismissive, with refusals to provide full refunds or exchanges.
Multiple reviews mention canceled orders, items relisted at higher prices, and return rules that limit cash refunds. Others point to competitive clearance deals and hard-to-find sneakers available in stores.
Customers describe website troubles, including suspected bot activity and quick sell-outs. In-store pickup and online returns can move slowly or take extra steps, though these complaints appear less often than shipping and product issues.
Many reports cite wrong sizes, a single shoe, mismatched pairs, worn or damaged items, and products that donโt work on arrival. A few reviewers also suspect counterfeit or heavily worn goods and describe repeated quality problems across separate orders.
Reviews often describe poor updates during fulfillment: labels created but orders not shipped, late deliveries or shipments sent to the wrong place, and customer support that canโt be reached. Several customers say refunds were slow, only partial, or took repeated calls and emails to fix.
Reviews show a split overall experience. The strongest negatives focus on shipping, returns, and product quality, while positive comments highlight helpful staff, clean stores, and satisfactory purchases.
