I lost connection to your server in the middle of placing my order. I tried to upload a picture of my shoe when I got the error message. I don't know if my order went through or not.

2 months.....no product
2 months.....no product, no refund as I requested weeks ago. Same canned response about their willingness to provide FedEx shipping and a" $ 50" jar of foot cream they told me about a month ago. How many millions of people's money are they sitting on to fund this debacle? Beginning to wonder if this is a complete scam. The next FTX ?
Response from Upstep Custom OrthoticsNov 23, 2022
Hello Paul, I appreciate your patience while we experience this short delay. We needed to order specific materials for your orthotics which takes a little more time. However, we want your orthotics to be 100% right for your needs, and we are not willing to compromise quality. We know you will be completely satisfied when you receive your new custom orthotics!! We can't wait to complete them! We've upgraded your shipping method to FedEx 2 day for faster delivery. We want you happy and pain free!

Unhelpful and unwilling to listen
Needed to change a delivery address and they kept telling me I needed to do this with fedex, but this is not true. According to fedex only the sender is able to change the delivery address. After telling them this multiple times they did nothing but tell me I need to change it. Unacceptable

Hi Jacob! We are sorry there was a shipping address issue. Please note, we ship to the address provided upon order. Once its on the truck and in transit, it is very hard to change the shipping address. We have done everything we could and everything FedEx will allow us to do with this matter. We see your orthotics are pending pick up-. We emailed you the tracking information. Please take a look at it. If you have anymore questions for us, you can contact our customer care dept anytime. Thank you again!

I have not yet received my order
I have not yet received my order. I ordered my orthotics on 9/12/22. I have received communication on the progress of my order early on, but have not received any notifications in the past few weeks. It is now 11/15/22, and my order still has not arrived.

Good Company Gone Bad?
Earlier this year, when I ordered and received three sets of custom orthotics from Upstep, I would have given them a five-star review. The whole process was easy, they contacted me with questions to assure a good fit, and I received the orthotics in the timeframe promised. They fit better than a previous set from a local lab and are holding up great. The PROBLEM is that because I had such a good experience, I convinced my husband to buy from Upstep, also. He ordered and paid for them on September 6, 2022. In October, he received an email stating that the order had shipped. Because the orthotics never came, I called the company at the 800 number listed on their website, thinking somehow the shipment had been lost. I spoke to a man who said the company had been shorted for an order of materials and had gotten behind in production, but had hired more employees to get caught up. He also said that shipping labels may be created before the orthotics are actually in production. He promised to "expedite" my husband's order. That was on November 1 and, despite receiving another shipment notice, the orthotics have still not been received as of November 13. I get routine emails from the company encouraging me to place another order. IF they can't produce orders for new customers in a timely manner, how could they possibly make more orthotics for previous customers? The marketing emails need to stop--at least until the company catches up with the orders it already has. IF any of this is true! We are starting to think this company will never fulfill its promises. We are retirees and paying for Upstep's products was an "investment" for us. IF we do not receive the orthotics by the end of November, we will file a complaint with our credit card company. That may or may not produce results, but for now anyone who reads this review should definitely take it into consideration. BUYERS DEFINITELY BE AWARE!

Thank you for your feedback. You are correct, we stumbled upon a very unexpected delay, and with delays come longer working hours, new employees, etc. We are doing our absolute best to navigate through the delay because, as you know, this is not typical for us. I am sorry your husband did not have the same experience you had. Our only hope is he can forgive us, and understand that unforeseen circumstances arrive in all businesses we are working diligently to ship all orders in a timely manner, but we will not compromise quality to do so. Apologies to you and your husband. We hope you will come back to us in the future. :)

They company lies about delivery time
They company lies about delivery time. They claim that your orthotics will be delivered in 18 business days, and it is just false. Moreover, the reviews on their website are fake. They delete any reviews that are not 5 stars - I know because I tried to leave a 1 star review twice. Do not buy.
Response from Upstep Custom OrthoticsNov 23, 2022
Please understand that Upstep, like the rest of the retail businesses online, does experience delays around this time of year. We cannot delete reviews as this site (integrated into our website) does not allow us to delete them. We do our best everyday to ensure our customers are happy, and we are sorry you feel this way. We hope you will see the custom orthotics are worth the short wait.

NOT WORTH THE TIME EFFORT OR ENERGY.
I placed an order on September 15, 2022 and was told my order would be here by Oct. 15 -22. That came and passed and I was given one story after another. I contacted my credit card company and filed a dispute. I would NEVER use them again. Horrible business ethics. I'm spreading the word. If that's how they do business they should stay in Israel. Magically, after telling Upstep I was going to file a dispute with the credit card, I got notification the product shipped...Poof, but it got delayed again, and finally I did receive it. I'm only taking the word Scam off the title because I did receive the order, but everything else stands

Hi there. We are sorry you are not happy. Please keep in mind unexpected delays within a company do not make a business a scam. A scam is a company that never delivers the product. As you can see from the hundreds of reviews, our orthotics are delivered to our customers. We are sorry we encountered a delay when you ordered but we are even more sorry you never gave us a chance to pull through so you can experience how wonderful your new orthotics would have been.
Best wishes to you.

My experience was terrible!!
My experience was terrible!!
The only good thing was your product!
I will not re-order, nor will my husband (we now have 4 pairs between us) because it took SOOO long and so many emails to straighten-out our order and get our upsteps delivered.
Response from Upstep Custom OrthoticsNov 22, 2022
Hello Michele, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. After looking into your previous inquiries, I see there was some confusion as you placed your new order using a different email than your previous order. I am glad we were eventually able to get that settled for you. I am so sorry this has turned you away from us, and hope you still think of us in the future. 👣❤️
