I didn't buy direct from KOI but still...

I didn't buy direct from KOI, but they were still new. I bought the Fuji Cat platform Mary Janes, and was so excited when they arrived that I wore them that same day to run some quick errands. Literally a 30 minute round trip. And by the time I was walking home, the soles were coming away from the shoes! I super glued what I could reach, as I love the shoes, and waited a few days to wear them again. When I did, the soles were coming away in different areas! And the suede effect was peeling! Not worn them since because I'm scared they'll be ruined before I can find a fix. I thought KOI were supposed to be this great brand! I think I'll be avoiding them entirely from now on.

Hi,

We're sorry to hear about your experience with the Fuji Cat Platform Mary Janes, especially as you were so excited to receive them.

While all products purchased directly from KOI are covered by a 6-month warranty, we can see that your shoes were not purchased directly from us. As a result, we're unable to access the order details or assist with a warranty claim on this occasion.

We'd recommend reaching out to the retailer you purchased them from, as they will be best placed to help resolve the issue for you.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry that your experience didn't meet the standards you expected from KOI.

Thank you for your feedback.

Just to clarify, we do not require or force customers to install the Shop app. Tracking information is automatically sent to the email address provided with your order, and you can track your shipment directly from those emails without installing any additional apps.

We appreciate your feedback and will keep it in mind as we continue to improve the customer experience.

Kind regards,

Big sizes run large

I bough a size 44 european, im usually a size 45 or 44,5, but the shoes fit me perfectly without any discomfort so they might run a little big. I see other reviews are mentioning them running small for some, so I cant guarantee they run big for all sizes. Atleast for the size 11 dont be scared to buy it if you have a little bit bigger shoe size than 11.

Great product and customer service

I ordered these shoes for my birthday, and initially there was a communication issue and the shoes got lost. When I expressed this to them (in an admittedly rude email), they responded quickly, professionally, and very helpfully, offering me a refund or a replacement pair. Well, the replacement pair arrived today, and they are super cute and super comfortable!

Ordered a pair of shoes

Ordered a pair of shoes, a couple day later they said they were over while the site wasn’t even updated, they refunded me but never restocked even if they invited me to sign up for updates on my mail. And now asking me how did the purchase went? Lol

Fast delivery, super comfortable

Bought the Rancor Lace Up ‘Monster’ boots and they are so incredibly comfortable. I bought a size up so I could wear thicker socks in winter without it being too tight of a fit. The delivery was fast and I would buy from Koi again!
