Shop owner asked me if I needed assistance.. So I said which show I liked.. was offered to try them.. He asked someone else to get me the shoes while he went to investigate why a child was trying to play with the hanging light. That person offered to get me them. In multiple sizes as they are Chelsea boots. Then offered me inner souls for a half size. This fit perfectly so I bought them. Whole transaction took about 2 minutes very efficient and very good experience

I went from London to Bluewater to get CK trainers. Spent £10 petol and £5 Dartford Crossing charge plus time. The leather on the trainers was cracked. I Went to Oxford Street to return costing another £6.20 travel plus time. Then ordered the same trainers online. This time, the inside leather was not covered properly resulting in a severe blister. I Was told I needrd to go into a shop so the assistant could verify the problem for a refund. I went to Oxford Street for a return costing another £6.20 travelling plus time. Then I was told I cannot get delivery refunded. I got in touch with Customer Services for all this drama and they only offered 10% discount in next purchase. So my £99 CK trainers turned to £129.40 plus time. What a shambolic service and Customer Services did not resolve my formal complaint to my satisfaction.

Shoes and postal service not quite right...these days.

The shoes I bought were just not what they were to the online pictures which is not Soletraders fault, but I had to pay both delivery and return costs..but hey ho...the way it goes...

Received my order as described but as soon as I submitted my order, I received fraudulent text messages and e-mails. You need to improve the security of your customers' information.

There was a mark on the shoes I bought and no discount was offered as that was the only pair in that size left. The staff were not very helpful unfortunately like other places

More attentive staff who are better informed. That said, we got where we needed to be although I think I was a sitting duck for a bit of upselling which failed to materialise.

Ordered white leather converse. One came white and the other yellow as though it had been used. Awful experience which created a lot of hassle for me.

Don’t EVER use

The new shoes I ordered had been worn, the soles were dirty and worn out. Unbelievable! No reply to the email I’ve sent

The shoes had obviously been back and forward to different clients and the box was unattractive and the package worn
