“Excellent client service”

Always friendly and helpful. Online shopping is quick and easy. Great variety of clothing for all ages and shapes. Appreciate the option to click and collect, as it saves on shipping costs. Returns, if needed, are hassle-free as postage is deducted from the refund, so you can quickly put it back in the post using the supplied label. He has been a satisfied customer for years. This page is reliable, I had a great shopping experience.

“They won't refund your money”

I returned something after 30 days and received a gift card -- not a problem. But when I used the gift card on a huge order and returned a small portion of the order within 30 days, they gave me another gift card. I asked why I didn't receive a refund to my credit card, and they said they refund the gift card first. So if I bought $10,000 in new stuff and returned one item, they'd pay me back in a gift card again. So it's an endless loop of never being able to use the gift card if I return anything from a new order, no matter how large the new order is. Garbage policy. Annoying little scam.

Good, but it appears that the shoe comes only in medium width. I believe my feet are somewhat wide. I hope the shoes fit comfortably. Otherwise, I'll have to return them.

Shoes arrived super quickly, perfectly packaged and with a spare set of matching yellow laces! Only issue is that this shoe runs a little small-- I ordered my normal size shoe (9.5 US) but for some reason the shoe feels a little snug at the top. So if you are ordering a pair please keep that in mind. Great deal regardless because I can actually still wear them

Reason I chose this business:

They have all the styles I like

Reason I chose this product:

Wanted a pair of suede Pumas but cant really find a large selection anywhere else

Great shoes, was waiting on size 11's to be in stock and they finally were. I read some of the reviews of them running small so I chose a half size larger than I normally do. They are still pretty tight, so I would suggest anyone interested in these getting at least a half size larger... if not 1 full size. That said, they are sweet looking shoes. They are still pretty hard, but looking forward to wearing them in. They go with just about anything.

Reason I chose this business:

Saw ads on social media.

Reason I chose this product:

Looking for a pair of white shoes with gum soles. I like the cut effects on the soles, as well as the use of the uncommon purple touches.

Last time I bought shoes online at a different site that shall not be named... The shoes I got from them were 4 sizes bigger than what I ordered. Here, the only thing I can complain about, if you have to complain about something, it was that it took a week to arrive instead of the agreed 3 - 4 business days. Not a crazy long wait either way. Appreciate you!

Reason I chose this business:

Google searched "size 8 1/2 wide black boots" then my wife said, "That pair looks really good! You should get them!" I'm satisfied.

Reason I chose this product:

A pair of 9 1/2 black lugz. They look good.

Since I didn't register and checked out as a guest, there was no way to start my return online like other websites. I was directed to send an email to customer service and 24-36 hours later they'd get back to me with info, return label, etc. I'd suggest making the returns a bit easier like most other websites.

The Shoe Box seem to be very old with lots of dust and soot around the Box
The shoes inside had no tissue wrap around the shoes witches as sign of either remainder or defective or really old shoes
I have never received from shoebacca or other shoe companies a product delivery as I received on these speakers
I am hesitant to order from your company again as a result of the conditions of what I received it didn't seem new to me

The lady provided me some answers but it didn't seem that there would be any correction or offer to compensate or returned for what I received.

Reason I chose this business:

Reason I chose this product:

So happy! I got Cole Haan shoes at clearance prices. One thing that could've made my shopping a better-informed one was in providing a clearer description of the loafers I bought. They were described as "leather", thus leading me to believe they would be smooth, full-grain leather. (The pix were not very clear.) Instead, I received suede leather shoes! While I do love my loafers, I would have preferred to know in advance that they were suede, as this leather requires a lot more care.

Reason I chose this business:

Shoebacca was having a clearance sale on Cole Haan, which definitely caught my attention!

Reason I chose this product:

Clearance sale!

Shoebacca bent over backwards to make this a good shopping experience, including discount prices, free shipping and then, unfortunately, free returns. The shoe didn't fit as expected and we had to return it. But so far (waiting for refund) it's been a seamless experience. I'll shop with Shoebacca again.

Excellent!

Purchased a big name shoe, but when my husband tried it on, there was no arch support whatsoever. We plan to return it.

Reason I chose this product:

This was a well-known shoe company, so we thought it would be a good shoe. He is on his feet on a concrete floor all day and needs a shoe with arch and cushion.

Shoebacca is a great online shoe store to buy your shoes. They have a wide range of shoes for men, women and kids. They also provide free shipping for all orders above $50.

The website is simple and easy to navigate, which makes it very user friendly. The payment options are also easy to use and they accept many different credit cards as well as PayPal.

Delivery was prompt, BearClaw slippers arrived in great condition, but I should've ordered one size larger. Will likely be OK after stored a while with shoe horns inside. Your price was very satisfactory

Delivery person ignored plainly seen and read sign, "Go to back deck, please". Walking to the back deck causes only 3 additional steps.

I wore it to walk around to try and break it in but felt the shoe was a bit tight. I made sure it's a 2E but I felt like it was not 2E. I buy only Asics 2E size 8 but this one was a bit tight on the side. Not sure if it was style? But I bought this to run in but now I feel this is not the right shoe. I am planning to run in the Rock n Roll `1/2 marathon in San Jose on Oct. 3rd but looks like I will have to find something else. I hope i can return this shoe.

Reason I chose this business:

Because i like the style of the shoe also it has it in 2E.

Reason I chose this product:

I only run in Asics

The actual purchase from the website was very smooth. I received an order confirmation through email, but never received any shipping notifications or follow-ups after that. It was very hard to get any sort of update on my order after that because I did not have an account and made the purchase as a "guest". The order itself and product was great. The communication was lacking a little.

Reason I chose this business:

Great prices and selection!

Reason I chose this product:

I have purchased these shoes before, from a different supplier. Shoebacca had the best price out there!

I've ordered five pairs of sneakers. I've learned through trial and error to order a full size up as the first couple of pairs were too small. (I think they're sending me the European 9 1/2:-) Luckily, the smaller shoe fit my son, so I didn't have to return them.

I find the sneakers to be of good quality. I have not had to deal with the customer service side of the business, so I have no feedback on that.

Thanks for the feedback! Most all of our shoes are in US sizes. The exception would be brands like Birkenstock which are manufactured in Europe and are displayed on our website in European sizes. It sounds like your shoe may be running a bit small causing the fit to be off. I'm glad they fit your son but we do offer free returns should you ever need to return a pair.
