Prices and availability are often the best for some of the brands that I like, so this isn’t my first time using Alpinetrek.
On this occasion I bought and returned some shoes as they were a little tighter than expected, however the refund was issued without and problems and I ordered another size.
They’re a little slow and I suppose my only complaint would be that they use a ‘co.uk’ address when goods are actually shipped from Central Europe. Yes, the expected shipping time IS stated so they’re not doing anything wrong but one of the main reasons that people choose to buy from ‘co.uk’ sites is that they assume shipping will be swift. I feel that it’s a little misleading.
They also exclusively use EVRI. Thankfully my experience this time was positive and I appear to have a a good local driver but I would never choose a site using Evri if I could find the same product for a competitive price elsewhere, it’s not worth the risk

I returned vidda pro trousers, I printed off the label they provided, it was collected by royalmail. I have tracking data and screenshots I gave them to show the package was picked up and delivered to their UK depot. The package now appears to be lost in the system, and I have no received a refund after waiting a month. Very disappointed. I couldnt recommend this retailer, first time shopping online in 20 years I have run into such an issue. Avoid.

Could be a lot better
1. Packaging is very wasteful - unnecessary double walled boxes that when opened are very hard to reuse. Awful design.
2. Products ought to have country of manufacture clearly stated. Many companies make a big ting about recycled materials (great) BUT manufacture in China where exploitation of workers and human rights abuses are appalling.

Unfortunately due to the late delivery and the size being unusually small for a medium. I had to return it and pay more as the discount was no-longer valid. So costing me £9 more plus a possible return cost?

Products too slow to arrive. Charged for restocking returns that do not fit - two charges for one order. This is not working for customer or vendor.

£5 off offer was made on site in return for receiving sales promotion material but then not incorporated into the sale. Will affect future searches and transactions adversely.
btw what is the point in asking my assessment of delivery, product quality, etc on next page when I've only just ordered and level of service is still in the future.

Consistent Poor delivery
While Alpine Trek as a company seems fine, the use of Evri as a delivery agent will make me think twice before ordering from Alpine Trek again. My last 2 orders have both been delivered to a nearby hotel even although we were in at the time. The local hotel is on winter hours and so it was difficult to get the parcel from them. Evri are the only delivery company that seems incapable of delivering to my house so while they're the delivery agent I won't be ordering from Alpine Trek again.

We're very sorry about the issues in deliveries. Due to Brexit-related developments, we currently can only offer the service with Evri. We are working on a solution and we hope that we can provide you with our usual service again as soon as possible.

Refund received at last - 8 months after return!
Updating this review below - delighted
Just like many other customers (see here and Trustpilot reviews), after returning walking boots worth 204 to Alpine Trek’s UK hub AND receiving proof of delivery from Royal Mail, Alpine Trek refuses to refund me (claiming, after weeks of blaming Brexit paperwork, that despite proof of delivery, they won't refund as I no longer have proof of postage). Avoid

Good product range, poor customer service.
Very good product range and decent prices overall. Disoatch appears prompt but tracking is a nightmare due to their lack of an intermediate scan which means no tracking is possible until the UK carrier is in possession. Customer service response is really not very good and is off-putting. I'm pleased with my items but once again the delivery part of the process is just too fraught.

Not terribly impressed…
Just checked order progress after three days and not yet with carrier/shipping agent. This is within the three/four days promised, but is very slow for a few items.
Website appears largely in German, which I have very little knowledge. Sales agent did not give me a detailed reply.
Will think twice about my further orders.

Tyre arrived and fitted fine, but when I pumped up the tyre the new inner tube supplied by Alpine burst 💥, I contacted Alpine and reported this issue and they said I would be reimbursed the cost of a new inner tube, I am still waiting for my money?

Delivery was delayed and customer service was contacted. More information was provided and the parcel was on its way. Delivered just in time.

Great communication and bargain for item purchased but delivery times not as stated when purchasing-allow an extra two weeks for delivery to arrive. Have to say the customer service is great though.
