Avoid buying

Avoid buying. The company is unprofessional. Once you place order you won’t get dispatch notification. Returns are also complicated. No label included. I don’t mind to pay return postage. And to be deducted when processing refund. Rockport could learn from Uniqlo “online return process”.

I ordered the shoes and was told they would arrive between 6 to 8 days.it is now 12 days later and they have not arrived. When I called to ask to cancel the order as I would no longer be around to receive them, they refused saying that I I should have cancelled within one hour. When I pointed out that they had not met their delivery commitments, they effectively said that it was not their problem as it was the holiday season and there were delays. End of story, I paid money and did not get my shoes.

Worst customer service EVER

Worst customer service EVER. I have requested an exchange for defective shoes and asked a question about another shoe and have received no response. I'll never buy from them again.

Customer service used to be good, not anymore

Agree with the complaints below about customer service. Good luck receiving the correct refund. This is not the way things were two years ago when returns were easier and I purchased lots of shoes from them.
I won’t be doing that anymore.

I Just ordered 3 pairs of boots for the “fall sale” they are advertising and sending to me via email… checked the sizes and availability in the order for all 3 pairs and all show available in their website order system… placed order and paid only to receive an email stating that my order was cancelled 5 min. Later . Thought order issue might be on my end so I reordered only to receive the same mssg.. I will cancel both orders now on my card if they hit it.
Reached out to them only to receive Automated mssg for calls , everything email comm. after purchase? where’s the Customer care? Support?

Very Disappointed.

Horrible Customer Service

Horrible Customer Service! Shoes are Cheep, not well made, period. They ship out you within 24hrs, good, but to return, it takes over a week, then to get a refund it takes another two weeks. RIDICULOUS! Why would you buy shoes if they're not going to return your money for over two weeks. Just try to talk to customer service and they keep rehashing their policies. But they din't answer your questions!

I bought 3 pairs of shoes

I bought 3 pairs of shoes, was entitled to an exchange, company never returned my emails, their phone has an automated msg, saying they can't take any calls. Horrible customer service. I'm left with shoes that don't fit me. Waste of money. Extremely disappointed at Rockport.

I have purchased many pairs of shoes from Rockport. I especially liked the Cobb Hill collection. I recently purchased two pairs of shoes and one did not fit. When I began the return process, my order was grayed out and it said that my order was "not eligible for return". I called and heard a recording to the effect that they did not have representatives available to answer the phone and to use the website. I sent three emails and never heard back from them. They have lost a customer, but I don't think that they care.

Worst customer service experience. Waste of time

I purchased two pairs of shoes but was shipped a completely different items. Based on return policy my situation does not qualify because it is a final sale item. Customer service is completely automated and there is a 1-800 number that is basically completely deactivated. The automated reply recommends a follow-up if issues are not resolved. Online customer service refuses to reply after the initial automated first reply. As you can see with all of the other responses on Trustpilot 90% of the replies are negative. I would not trust Rockport to resolve issues. You will likely have to dispute through your credit card company to resolve.

They only contacted me after I filed dispute with my credit card company. How convenient.

Good Experience

I ordered two pair of Rockport Pro Walkers on the two for $69.95 deal without reading the reviews. When I did read them after ordering, they were so negative that I thought I’d just thrown money away.
Five days later, the shoes arrived and I was very pleasantly surprised. Construction appears solid. If they wear as good as they look, I’ll be very happy.

NON EXISTENT customer service!!

I ordered slippers that were supposed to be size 11 but they sent size 12. I go online to exchange and my order is grayed out. They don't answer their phones because they're "too busy". Yeah too busy fielding complaints from irate consumers!! I sent the inquiry form on their site LAST Monday and just got an email from Natalie telling me to go to the returns page on their website! Duh, I already did that, like I explained in the email you got from me Natalie!! I'll never buy anything from them again 🤬🤬🤬

Zero customer service

Terrible, there’s no customer service. Tried to exchange a pair of shoes and a month later no exchange or refund received and no word from Rockport despite emailing and requesting an update. Their phone rings out - please never buy from Rockport!

Terrible Customer Service

Terrible Customer Service. Ordered men's US10.5 shoes online, unfortunately too small. Tried to exchange for size 11, but the site would not allow returns or exchanges I never saw final sales posted anywhere during the sale, on my order, nor on the site when I looked up the same shoes. I have contacted customer service multiple times but only received one initial response that said to use the aforementioned process and to write back if not able. Still no response.

Potential to despatch faulty goods to non US addresses

I purchased two pairs of men's shoes, one black, one tan, in an identical style, on 26 Nov 2022 from the Rockport.com website which invites GB pound sterling purchases. My husband tried on the black pair and was delighted with them. The tan pair came in a box which stated the correct size. He opened the box and checked they looked ok but did not check the inner size labe and did not try them on.
He has tried the tan pair a few months later. They are a size 7.5 size while the box states 8.5. Further, the inner sole unlike that in the black pair, is faulty and does not lie flat.
I emailed the company and attached images of:
Proof of purchase from my MasterCard and PayPal accounts
and
Images of box with bar code and sizing, inner size label, and faulty sole.
I had clearly been sent a faulty item packed in the incorrect size box.
I stated that I wished to return these for a replacement item in a size 8.5 with reimbursement of postage costs.
I received a standard letter stating that Rockport would only accept returns from a US addresee.
This unfortunately gives the company potentially an opportunity to despatch faulty goods to non US addresses knowing their small print conditions on returns/ refunds non US purchases will be missed by simple souls such as I.
I will not purchase a Rockport item ever again.

I loved the look and feel of my new reefs however after a few wears threads started unraveling from edge of shoe. I sent photos with my email but no response. Called customer service but they are not taking calls at this time. Very Frustrating!

No customer service what-so-ever!

I've had the same issue as many others who have recently posted on this forum. I purchased a pair of sandals on the website. The website said the sandals were made of leather. I was willing to pay more for a pair of real leather sandals. However, when I received the sandals, they were all man-made materials. I followed the instructions on the website to return the sandals, and like many others here, I received a response that the item was not eligible to return. I sent an e-mail to customer service, and like the experience of many others who have posted here, I received no response. No one at Rockport answers the 1-800 customer care number. My 30-day window for returns is almost up. If you come across this forum, please heed everyone else's experience here and do not order from Rockport.com

Zero Customer Service

Terrible customer service - never responded to request to return shoes that did not fit. It bought multiple pairs of shoes in different sizes thinking I would pay the $5 return fee for those that didn't fit. NOPE - the return system said my order did not qualify....It was not at all clear to me when purchased. A human never responded to my emails and I couldn't find a number to call. Lesson learned -- Never purchase from this company again.

One new pair I experienced issues…

One new pair I experienced issues with-barely worn and a year later entire sole came off the shoe, but because of previous experience with quality wanted to give a second chance. However regardless, I will never order directly from Rockport again because of the customer service-or lack of.

Placed an order and either my or their system error-wrong email on file. I never received any email regarding order status. The Tuesday I called customer service , they weren’t taking any calls and I was directed to the contact us page online. I submitted this and got a generic response on possible answers to questions not relevant to what I was asking about-responded 4 days letter to their response letter and heard nothing-their phone message from my original call stated not to reach out duplicate my so I listened like a fool.

My order finally arrived luckily 10 days after ordered.

Again-terrible customer service. Quality of product yet to be determined.
