Beware of Clarks outlet website…

The Clarks oulet website is not customer‑friendly. Delivery is automatically set to the priciest next day option, and particularly when usjng google pay you easily miss this and then you are unable to cancel the order despite contacting customer services. It feels intentionally dishonest and misleading and a good way of tricking customers into paying more for delivery of orders. Most other online retailers require you to actively select a more expensive delivery option so a very disappointing experience.

I purchased a £55 pair of Clarks work shoes and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience.

After wearing the shoes on just two occasions, I developed severe pain in one knee to the point that I had to wear a knee support. I stopped wearing the shoes, and the pain went away. As a result, I can no longer wear them.

I returned to the store hoping they could help, but I was told there was nothing they could do and that I needed to contact customer services. I then called customer support, who put me on hold while they spoke to a manager, only to come back and say there was nothing they could do either.

What has disappointed me most isn’t just the shoes themselves, but the complete lack of customer care. The shoes had only been worn twice, yet I was left £55 out of pocket with a pair of work shoes I can’t use and no meaningful solution was offered.

The whole experience has left me feeling that, once the sale has been made, customer satisfaction isn’t a priority. I wasn’t asking for store credit or another pair of shoes—I simply wanted Clarks to take my concerns seriously and provide a fair resolution.

Sadly, I feel that keeping my money was more important than looking after a genuine customer. Based on this experience, I won’t be shopping with Clarks again, and I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone looking for good after-sales service.

Great customer service

Sam - at Clarks Poole Dolphin Centre was brilliant today! So friendly, thoughtful and kind. My almost 2 year old needed his feet measured and she really went above and beyond to make it a really enjoyable experience. Thank you

I recently bought a pair of Clark’s shoes, and I’m very pleased with my purchase. The online shopping experience was very easy, with a straightforward ordering process and clear product information. The delivery was prompt, and the shoes arrived well-packaged and in perfect condition.

The shoes themselves were comfortable from the first wear, with excellent cushioning and good support throughout the day. The quality of the materials and craftsmanship is evident, and they have a smart, stylish look that works well for both casual and formal occasions. The fit was true to size, and they feel durable enough to last a long time.

Overall, I’m extremely happy with both the product and the service and would definitely recommend Clark’s to anyone looking for comfortable, high-quality shoes and a smooth online shopping experience.

Reyanah @ Middlebrook

We were served by Reyanah @ Middlebrook. Very polite and excellent customer service, she found the exact shoes our 6 year old was looking for for school and even tasked him with little jobs to keep him involved.

We were there to buy my 2yr old grandsons shoes. We were greeted as soon as we entered, didnt have to wait long at all for measuring. Staff member, name of Raj, bought out a range of shoes for him to try and went out of her way to find a certain pair. Incredibly friendly and helpful.

Rude, verbally aggressive female staff

Clarks, Selly Oak.

On Saturday, 4 July 2026, at approximately 11:00 am, I experienced unacceptable customer service at your store. While I was in the process of selecting a third pair of shoes, a female member of staff interrupted me in a rude and verbally aggressive manner. She demanded that I immediately pay for the first two pairs, stating that she needed to assist other customers. As loyal Clarks customers for decades, my family and I have never encountered such hostile behavior. Consequently, this distressing experience has entirely compromised our trust in this particular store, and we will no longer shop at this location.
