Alex B.
Great company. Owned a pair of shoes from Clae for over a year now. Daily wear. Still feel great. Will continue buying from this company.

Hi Alex! Thank you so much for the shout-out. Hearing that your Claes are still going strong after a year of daily wear is exactly what we love to hear. We design our shoes to last, so it’s great to see that durability in action. We look forward to seeing what you pick for your next pair! - CLAE Team

We received a size 7 instead of a size 12. We had to pay $50 to return them.
Response from CLAEApr 1, 2026
Hi Demetri, thank you for reaching out. We have looked into your order and verified that a size 7 was selected at checkout and fulfilled accordingly. We understand that needing to exchange a size can be frustrating—especially with the high cost of international shipping—but as the order was shipped correctly based on the selection made, we are unable to cover the return postage. We are currently reviewing our instructions and logistics to see how we can make returns and exchanges more user-friendly in the future. - CLAE Team

Needed to return my order. Return instruction on the Clae website are misleading and also shocked to realise that a) i had to pay; and b) I also had to arrange 'recorded return' myself as opposed to generating a return label with their courier. What has happened to CX?
Response from CLAEApr 1, 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We are truly sorry for the frustration our return process has caused. It’s never our intention to mislead, and we clearly missed the mark on providing a seamless experience for you. We understand that in today’s market, paying for returns and arranging your own courier feels like a step backward in Customer Experience. We are currently reviewing our instructions and logistics to see how we can make this more user-friendly. - CLAE Team

Shoes are nice but did not fit well. The exchange for a bigger size was easy, nevertheless 20€ return cost for the package is not okay. This is really surprising and to some extent dissapointing for a pair of shoes that cost 160€. Free return is the clear expectatino here from customer side.
Response from CLAEApr 1, 2026
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear you're happy with the shoes and that the exchange process was smooth. We completely understand your disappointment regarding the return shipping fee. As a small independent brand, we currently charge for returns to help offset the rising costs of logistics, though we understand this can be frustrating for premium purchases. We are constantly reviewing our policies and truly value your input as it helps us improve. - CLAE Team
