Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 77 reviews, most reviewers were unhappy with their experience overall. Customers frequently complained that the overall footwear quality has dramatically deteriorated over time, with soles separating, stitching failing, and exterior materials cracking after very little use. Many buyers also reported that walking boots leaked immediately in wet grass and completely failed to keep their feet dry during outdoor activities. Some reviewers were happy with the prompt delivery service and found specific shoe styles to be very comfortable for daily walking. Other consumers also noted that certain affordable items offered good value for money, providing lightweight support, sturdy construction, and a pleasant everyday fit.

Watch the prices

Watch the prices! Ordered new boot laces from Karrimor. One lot charged at £2.99 but when they arrived the price on the product was clearly shown as £1.50. The other was charged at £3.99 but the price on the product was £2. Why should you pay double the price just because you order on line? A con - be aware!

Good product

Good product, decent price point. Took one star off for arriving a day later than it said it would.

Very poor sole durability

I've had a pair of Karrimor walking shoes with Dynagrip soles for about 6 months.
They are very comfortable, but the tread on the left shoe has almost completely worn away whilst the right shoe has still plenty of tread.
I looked at the tread wear on my other shoes and the tread wear on the left and right looks fairly even so can only assume that the Dynagrip material quality is not consistent.
Doubt I will ever buy anymore Karrimor products due to their apparent lack of quality control.

I have had a pair of karrimor walking…

I have had a pair of karrimor walking trainers previously and they were very comfortable and long lasting.
I have just recieved a new pair and they are as comfortable as the previous trainers. The service from this company is 5 star.

I bought a brilliant pair of Karrimor…

I bought a brilliant pair of Karrimor trail shoes a few years ago. The same available fit completely differently, don't come in at the sides of the arch at all. Had to send them back. And pay for postage. If they are the same they should be exactly the same otherwise it's misleading.

Karrimor - Appalling waste of money

Have a pair of mens walking boots. Bought them as a back up pair 2 years ago. Only just started using them. First walk in heavy dew in long grass both feet end up wet less than a mile walk. Further 2 walks later less than 10 miles of total use, both soles have come off on each boot. Now only attached at toe end.Appalling quality

Ordered some socks from the Karrimor…

Ordered some socks from the Karrimor website. Wrong size. Having paid £9.99 delivery, I had to pay for the return. And the £9.99 delivery cost so lost about £14 in all getting the wrong item. Also, the item turned up with discount stickers from Sports Direct on the packaging.

Nasty, will never use them again. Ended up costing me £32 to get a £12.99 pair of socks.
