A loyal customer lost

I have been a loyal Clarks customer for over 20 years and have owned many pairs of their shoes. Comfort and quality were the reasons I kept coming back.

Unfortunately, my latest purchase was extremely disappointing. The shoes are not merely uncomfortable, they actually hurt my feet, something I have never experienced with any previous pair of Clarks shoes. When I contacted Customer Services, my concerns were dismissed as a matter of personal preference. The response was generic, focused entirely on the returns policy.

What disappoints me most is not just the product, but the lack of support for a long-standing customer. This experience has significantly reduced my confidence in the brand, and I will be looking elsewhere for footwear in the future.

Clark’s in Cambridge

Timmy assisted in Cambridge today, he was a more than helpful. We were getting school shoes and needed help for sizes, and Timmy did just that add extra. He was extremely accommodating, insightful and competent. He was a wonder to be served by. Thanks

I was helped by Chloe C

I was helped by Chloe C today on the 31st July.
I came with my 13yr old NV Autistic daughter and my 10 yr old ADHD daughter.
Chloe had the patience of a saint and was so kind and helpful.
It can be so difficult shopping but this was a pleasure.

Thank you so much.

Marine in Grafton St

I went into the Clarks Grafton St Dublin store for a quick look on my way to get a bus home, just to fill a few minutes.
I immediately took a stunning animal print shoe off the shelf to try it on in the mirror, and another customer instantly complimented them, then Marine came over and said she loved them too. Marine quickly got me the pair and talked me through the extra cushioning and comfort in this style, and complimented my own Wallabees. She was so easy to talk to and brought me out a different pair I liked as well. We both agreed the first pair were perfect. We chatted about shoes, and also my time working in Clarks years ago. Gerry was also great craic, and everyone was so complimentary about my style, I didn’t want to leave. No one felt overbearing or fake, just effortlessly good vibes.
What a gorgeous, gorgeous team in the Grafton St store and I am utterly obsessed with my new Torhill Bee’s!!

Michelle@middlebrook what a star!

Michelle@middlebrook went above and beyond. Friendly, helpful and amazing with our 6 year old energetic boy, giving him jobs to do whilst we looked for shoes.
Michelle was a star and help my 78 year old mum find shoes to fit specialist insoles. Mum was made up with her trendy trainers.

Ordered 3 pairs of shoes on Tuesday for next day delivery on Wednesday. I still have not recieved my order nor have I had a update why it was not delivered and still no delivery for today. Very poor service. Phoned Clarks customer service who advised they cant do anything until Evri gets back to them so not much point in ringing them to resolve.

Shambles

I signed up for the email newsletter to receive the advertised £10 discount. After waiting several weeks, the discount code finally arrived. I found a pair of sandals, added them to my basket, applied the code and proceeded to checkout, only to be told they were out of stock.

To make matters worse, despite receiving daily emails promoting “up to 50% off sandals”, there was barely any choice available. In fact, I could only find one sale item, and it wasn’t remotely appealing.

Overall, the whole experience was frustrating, poorly managed and felt like a complete shambles
