Still waiting for a refund
Still waiting for a refund. The state of the order in the web shows as change/refund, not closed order even though you had the shoes back on the 27th of march, almost a month ago. I did not have a email confirming you are refunding me and your costumer services are ignoring me in all your platforms. I have the screenshots and the emails to prove it. If you don’t want to refund me I want my shoes back, worth 110.85£. I am gonna report the case to the french SignalConso and also here in the Uk to ECC, I hope it resolves soon.

Hello,
We are sincerely sorry to hear that your delivery experience did not meet your expectations.
We completely understand your frustration with the carrier. Your feedback is valuable and will be taken into account to improve our services and our choice of logistics partners.
Thank you for your feedback, and we apologize for the delivery issue you encountered.

Terrible
Terrible. Charged for the boots and delivery then expected to pay £92 import tax. This should be clear at time of purchase / advertised. It is not so false advertisement. Be warned

Hello,
Thank you for your feedback.
The following information is detailed in our General Terms and Conditions of Sale, and normally, when placing your order, a message in red in the shopping cart indicates that fees may apply depending on the country.
"As of January 1, 2021, VAT and administrative fees apply as follows:
- Orders under £135: Local VAT is paid directly when ordering on our website. Only administrative fees may be charged (£5 for DPD and £11 for DHL).
- Orders over £135: Local VAT must be paid upon delivery to the carrier, along with additional administrative fees (£5 for DPD and £20 for UPS)."
We understand that this may seem restrictive and do our best to ensure this information is clear before order confirmation.
Sincerely,
Bertrand
All perfect
All perfect! The time of delivery was truly fast and all arrived in perfect condition. The boots are really good. And the price really low compared with other market prices.

Scarpa Hiking boots
I ordered a pair of Scarpa Ribelle Hiking boots, and was slightly sceptical at first, having read many negative reviews, but also many positive reviews. However the price was superb, and I aso considered paying with PayPal and the security and protection being in place. The website is very comprehensive and a lot of small print. Do your research on any additional import taxes. My shoes included everything in a total price, so no additional import charges.
I ordered the boots, and had an order accepted receipt and PayPal receipt, which was helpful, however I went 7 days without hearing anything, other than order was going through quality control. This seemed unusual, as order was accepted. On the 7th day, order showed out for delivery with carrier, so this was all reassuring. Order finally delivered on day 12. All in all, very happy just had to sit tight. But yes I would recommend

Beware of shipping to the US
The original shipping estimate was $52.36, and I had to pay an additional $44.00 to UPS when it arrived. The Supreme court declared the tariffs illegal so I'm not sure what this charge is for and why it wasn't included. In total it cost $96 in shipping for a small box that weighs than 1 kilo.
The order was processed fast and sent fast.

Hello,
Thank you for your feedback.
The following information is detailed in our General Terms and Conditions of Sale, and a red message in your shopping cart during checkout should indicate that fees may apply depending on the country.
"Since August 29, 2025, the exemption from duties and taxes for shipments to the United States under $800 has been suspended. A 15% customs fee is therefore automatically applied, in addition to a $20 customs clearance fee charged by the carrier."
Your order totals $231.84, so the customs fees are correct.
We understand that this situation was frustrating and we regret the inconvenience caused during the delivery of your package.
Sincerely,
Bertrand
Fast and efficient

The shipping to abroad was not set up properly
The shipping to abroad was not set up properly on the website; it even showed as free, although in the end it could only be ordered for an additional fee. As a result, the actual processing of my order was delayed. However, they corrected the error once I reported the issue.

Fast processing
Fast processing, fast shipping. however I was not aware I had to pay delivery carrier an import tax - could not be cash, had to be money order. If there is anyway to alert customers ordering from out of country of this extra charge?
