I had a very disappointing experience…
I had a very disappointing experience with Amberjack.
I ordered two pairs of Regent shoes (Obsidian and Chestnut). To their credit, shipping was prompt—but that’s where the positives end.
The Chestnut pair arrived clearly previously worn, with scuffed soles and noticeable creasing in the leather on the toe box. The Obsidian pair wasn’t any better—it arrived damaged, with a chunk of the sole missing near the heel.
I contacted customer service the same day via text and email. Before they would take any action, I was asked to provide photos, which I did promptly. After reviewing, they gave me two options:
1. Keep the defective shoes and receive $90 off a future purchase, or
2. Return both pairs for an exchange.
I chose the exchange option, with the understanding that replacements would ship out quickly once the returns were in process. I made it clear I needed these shoes for upcoming business travel (about two weeks away).
I dropped the shoes off at Kohl’s the very next day. Three days later, I still hadn’t received any shipping confirmation, so I followed up—only to be told that replacement pairs would now take 3–6 weeks to ship.
Their “solution”? Offering free expedited shipping… once the shoes are finally ready in 3–6 weeks. That does nothing to address the situation.
At no point did they offer any meaningful compensation for the inconvenience, nor did they take ownership of the poor quality control.
I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere. This was a frustrating and disappointing experience from start to finish.
