Reported a problem with a faulty boot. Sent photos and a emailed explanation on Brantano site. Within 24 hours refund issued, no quibbles. A rarity today to receive such good customer service.

Very expensive P & P inaccurate description

I did not realise this company is part of (now called) ski sports
They give you a QR for returns, which you then have to pay. After paying £6 for delivery I did not expect to have to pay a further £5 to return the boots
The female boots were far too big, not true to size at all. The description was not accurate.
I will not purchase from this company again

Misleading sizes and poor customer service.

I ordered a size 6 which for all my life and every shoe in my wardrobe is a Euro 39. I paid for express delivery as needed for an event. A size 391/2 arrived which were far too big. Not only did this mean I couldn't wear to the event but Brantano refused to refund the extra postage I paid for or offer to cover the return postage. They actually could have been less helpful and I will NEVER be using them again.

Returns aren’t free

Returns aren’t free!
Bought a pair of Skechers as a present. Came up very small so had to return. Cost £8.95 to send back as you can’t drop off in store as it’s a different company!
Won’t be using again

I orderd my daughter a pair of trainers…

I orderd my daughter a pair of trainers which are size 10.5. They where ordered and came in size 11 which is huge on her. I sent them email and not helpful at all. I had proof that they where ordered 10.5 and they replied there are not from us! I had to send proof of everything and again came back saying it wasnt from them!! Not happy

Exceptional support from Brantano

Exceptional support from Brantano. Ordered on next-day delivery, however, post was delayed (most likely down to The Royal Mail).

Brantano refunded me the delivery charge within a few hours, which is how support should be done, promptly and fairly. Shoes arrived shortly after, in perfect condition. Hence, the 5 Star Review.

No free return service

Because of no local stores now I ordered online. Got 4 pairs of shoes and had to send them all back because of sizing then I realised I had to pay for returning which was £15!! No free returns even if you spend £88 +. Will not be ordering from there again.

Very, very comfortable.

Great service. Bought these to replace wellies and as I have thin legs and these are much more comfortable than standard wellies. They have a lovely soft lining, are true to size and feel so, so good.
