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.

Placed online order, one week later i had not received my order or had any updates. Emailed Alpine Trex for update, to be told because of brexit they cannot deliver order and i would be refunded. Very Disappointed.

Hello and thank you for your review! Unfortunately, due to a complete adjustment of our inventory management system, there was a delay of processing in our logistics. This led to a backlog of orders. We apologize for any inconvenience caused. Currently are working at full speed to reduce this backlog. Your package could not be delivered on time. We are sorry for that! You can always use your 100-day return policy and simply send the unused items back to us. We are sorry that the delivery time was unusually high this time. We understand that this is an inconvenience for you! Of course, this is not in accordance to our service philosophy. We are constantly working to improve our service. We are sure that we will be able to convince you with our fast delivery times and our very good customer service with your next purchase. Thank you for your constructive criticism and understanding.

Faulty boots

The boots I ordered came with different sized L and R insoles. Also with a manufacturing defect in the R toecap. Obviously, this was the fault of Inov-8, the maker, but I would have thought that any retailer worth its salt would carry out at least a rudimentary quality check before dispatch?

Delivery was very late. I still haven't received my parcel and it's been weeks! I just hope everything is ok with the product itself as it's clearly gone walkabout

Dispatch was slow and item wasn't delivered as they use Evri

Item wasn't delivered as they use Evri, who said I wasn't in 3 days in a row when they never even attempted delivery. I waited inside every day for this parcel and took time off. AlpineTrek wouldn't resend the item or use another courier. The person I spoke to on the phone was rude and hung up on me saying "I was not asking him questions, only making statements and he didn't need to respond to statements." Only offering delivery by Evri (and not even stating that is the courier company) is just poor service. Obviously, this is mostly Evri's fault, AlpineTrek did send the item after all (well eventually, it took 5 days to dispatch), but they chose to use a cheap and unreliable courier and the customer service was poor. Prices are good, but I guess you get what you pay for (or don't, in my case)

Poor delivery options, i.e....none! I wanted to choose an express delivery but absolutely nothing available and no delivery timescale or info available during payment process. Its as though we are blackmailed into ' all or nothing' during purchase process! Rubbish

The website states that you normally receive a refund when the returned goods are delivered to the Bury St Edmunds. When I enquired about this, I was told it would take 21 days for the refund after the goods had been returned to Germany.
