I enjoy the shoes however, they took a long time to come. After 3 wearings, the toe & heel came off as the glue didn't hold. I asked to return them and was told no but could have 30% off the next order. That was a laugh! Cost me $20 to get fixed. The return policy sucks!

Don't waste your money
Don't waste your money. These are billed as orthopedic shoes and they are not. Uncomfortable, insoles are flat, and just not worth the price.

This company is a SCAM
This company is a SCAM. The shoes are plastic, not leather. They come from China and take over a month to arrive. The shoes are smaller than the size marked on the shoes.
The customer service is non-existent. They require you to send the shoes from China onwards to the USA at your own expense to qualify for a refund. The shoes are worth less than the shipping cost.
The reply to this review is clearly disingenuous. The issue is that they refuse to refund. It’s a simple thing. They claim to be sorry, that’s really cheap and easy to say. The right thing for a genuine company to do, is to put your money where your mouth is and refund the cost.
My conclusion remains BUYERS BEWARE, this company is a scam!
I do hope my feedback remains invaluable! 😂😂👍

The shoes have nothing to do with leather
The shoes have nothing to do with leather…all plastic.
Came in a bubble wrap and soft bag….cheap and nasty really. Mine fit ok but I think their life would be very short…old story you get what you pay for…I would guess these shoes would cost cents to manufacture.

Ordered 48 days ago
Ordered 48 days ago. Recieved a couple weeks later. Worn 5 times. Sole is separating from upper. I read your response to another person with the same exact problem where you stated they should reach out to customer service team. Well, that is the first thing I did!
I sent this message with photos and screenshots showing when they were ordered.
"Hello there.
I bought 2 pairs of shoes, ordered 48 days ago...recieved ancoupke weeks after that. I have worn the black pair less than 5 times. They are very comfortable, but the right shoe on my black pair has started separating from the sole. I would like to get it replaced, please. I am really hoping it is not something I should expect to come soon from the other shoes.
What steps should I take to get a return started.
I have attached screen shots of my order and a couple of pictures.
Thank you in advance for your prompt response and attention to this matter."
Here was the prompt response from your customer service team 5 minutes later.
