Lovely footwear but I find them very narrow towards the toe. On an open toe sandal there is not quite enough room for my little toe !

Written by the company

Hush Puppies was established in 1958, during a time when uncomfortable dress shoes were the only footwear option, even during leisure time. The brand's mission was to revolutionize the concept of casual footwear and provide relief for sore feet, affectionately referred to as "barking dogs." This marked the beginning of a new era in casual footwear, focusing on comfort and a more relaxed lifestyle. Hush Puppies has always been committed to innovation, and this commitment continues today with the development of the Bounce Technology platform, which sets new standards for comfort and support. The brand's early innovations included the introduction of colourful rainbow suedes, offering a fresh and expressive approach to footwear. Over the years, Hush Puppies has continued to explore a wide range of colours and patterns to bring joy and individuality to footwear. Their belief in the transformative power of colour remains unwavering, as they strive to brighten any day with a pop of vibrant hues. In addition to their dedication to comfort, Hush Puppies offers an extensive range of footwear, including flat shoes for women, trainers and loafers for both men and women, featuring unconventional and bold colours alongside classic neutrals. While the timeless men's oxfords remain a staple, the Hush Puppies men's loafers and trainers have gained popularity for their style and comfort. And last but by no means least at Hush Puppies you can see a great range of kid’s school shoes combining fashion and functionality to fit every taste. For those seeking a blend of comfort and style, HushPuppies.co.uk presents a diverse collection of Men’s & Women’s trainers, loafers, and boots for the cooler seasons. It's an invitation to discover a world where comfort meets individuality and where every step is a joyful expression of personal style.

I bought slippers from hush puppies but…

I bought slippers from hush puppies but they never actually arrived . Despite the courier saying they were delivered. They even give a date and time . I was able to check my camera on the day and time the courier said that the package was delivered, but this was not the case. Hush puppies tried to start an investigation and the courier never responded. Hush puppies refunded the money back to me even though the courier responsible had not even replied to them. It may be on going. I don’t know. Thank you hush puppies. Also Ella from hush puppies who was dealing with this matter.

Superb wide fit low boots

These extra wide fit low boots are so comfortable I come home and forget to swap for slippers. So happy I now have a black and brown pair, thoroughly recommend them

Poor service, item received in poor condition

I’m not so sure I would purchase from this company again. Bought a pair of boots for my husbands birthday. They arrived badly packed to the extent where the boot box was badly damaged, not great for a present at all. Raised this with customer service and received a very poor response, hardly any apology or a knowledge ent of my disappointment, no offer of goodwill or suggestion to rectify. Just simply said they would pass my comment onto their colleagues and team….. Has not filled me with confidence to purchase come them in the future.

Poor quality, badly made

I chose Hush Puppies over my usual go-to Dr Martens for my birthday boots and it turned out to be a decision I would regret! They lasted less than 7 weeks with only light wear. The sole cracked internally forming a prominent ridge, so they became unwearable. Such as shame as they were beautiful boots. My Docs all last several years so I am astounded at how poor the quality of these boots must be. I contacted customer services and sent photos as requested but as they were bought through an associated retailer by my partner (secret sales), Hush Puppies took no accountability for their item. So I'm left with no boots and although HP manufactured the item, they don't deem themselves responsible for producing faulty products. Wish I'd seen these trust pilot reviews before choosing hush puppies as it seems my badly made shoes are one of many.

Love Hush Puppies so comfortable

Love Hush Puppies so comfortable. The return system is not good in the way charges a lot of companies do FREE returns. I had to return 2 pairs kept one pair the other two didn’t fit well. I have been told my refund has been issued and could take between 5-7 days to drop into my bank account. I do hope I was given the correct information by Ignatious.

Don’t buy from this firm. You might end up paying and getting literally nothing for your money

The most disgraceful customer service imaginable!
My friend bought me a pair of Hush puppies 18 days ago which have never arrived. They won’t refund or send me a new pair —saying we have to wait another 30 days for Royal Mail to investigate.
But the contracts we have with hush puppies to deliver a pair of shoes 48 hours after the order was in the post…

I’m really cross because I really wanted those shoes and they may well have sold out in my size by the time— if ever— Hush puppies get around to resolving this. It is going to be literally 48 days before they even bother to begin to sort this out!

Shameful.

Excellent customer service

I had a problem with some boots that I purchased six months ago as the sole was beginning to come away from the boot. I contacted customer services who replied the same day with a returns label for me to use. The refund was processed within 5 days of me returning the faulty item. Excellent customer service and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

Bought some boots online but for various reasons they weren't right for me. Ella was quick to reply to my query and sorted out the return & refund very quickly. Wouldn't hesitate to buy from Hush Puppies again - customer service very good and personable.

Avoid at all costs

The headaches are not worth the shoe. It took me 2 months to sort a refund issue.

The shoe is ok, however customer service is beyond appalling.
I had an issue with the delivery and they basically said I had to sort the refund with the Post Office. I've never encountered such indifference. Their attitude was shocking. It has made my overall experience horrible and I would never buy nor trust Hush Puppies again.

Don’t bother

Don’t bother. Useless company, charged to return shoes and still awaiting refund after nearly a month so out of pocket for poorly sized shoes. Size 8 more like a size 10. And now out of pocket for return postage. Just awful for a renowned brand. Send loads of emails asking for refund to be actioned along with the yodel proof of delivery…..disgusting!!!! Order HUSHP210341 🤯

High rerun costs

I agree with people about the returns costs, which are a bit high. I had a positive customer service experience, even though I had to return both orders as they didn’t fit. I won’t order online again, due to the high postage costs to return items

Responsive though it takes some time

I appreciate that they respond to any query despite taking some time. They do mention that they have high volume of correspondence. The pair of boots I bought ripped from the sole a few weeks after purchase so I reached out to their customer service email. In a few days they responded and asked for photos of the damage. I sent those today and within minutes they responded, apologised and issued a refund.
