Karrimor Recenzje 469

there products are cheap rubbish that fails in conditions far.lighter than they are designed for.
be warned buy from this company youll soon be buying another pair of boots. save money and go to a reputable supplier . not one that turns its back on its products . that says everything you need to know.
leather hiking boots that last about a year with very light use. sole still virtually new so you can tell light use only

Toe cap has come unstuck first time they got wet very disappointed with the quality

Ordered a daysack - paid £26.99 for it, and it arrived with a label saying the price was reduced to £13.99! Going back not only because of this, but it is tiny and looks pretty cheap. My last Karrimor daysack lasted over 20 years...

In all honesty I have purchased Karrimor boots for 15 yrs.
They were so comfy and lasted very well. Waterproofing lasted well and could be re applied.
As years have gone by they got worse but we're still sort of ok based on the price.
In the last 2 years I bought 4 pairs from sport direct.
Same old bull. £90 scribbled out and £40 applied.
The waterproofing is poor now, and you are lucky if it lasts 3 walks.
The separation of fabric from sole happened on all 4 pairs within I would say 20 miles.
Worst is the lace eyelets and hooks . All of the 4 pairs failed.
I did a small hill walk and wore a new pair which had just been broke in. The eyelets snapped off on the walk and left me having to stab holes in the fabric to cobble together some form of fitting to get home.
Quite literally the worst quality ever.
And as for customer service, well forget it. Not interested and replace, reimbursement? 😁 Get out of here.
Sport direct, a warehouse full of past quality names now being manufactured in cheap sweatshops around the world.
A multi millionaire owner who just doesn't give a toss.
Stay away people, spend a little more and get some value.
I would have sorted lower but no option.

3 pairs of different Karrimor boots all had soles falling off in under 3 months.
Not just loose on a corner, but total failure.
Why put decent vibrant soles on them and not bother to attach them properly?
Can't comment on their other kit, but their boots will let you down spectacularly and any perceived savings on price is short lived.

Brilliant, well made, lasting reliable and good looking gear

This is my second pair of Karrimor boots. Don't waste your money. Neither pair lasted more than 18 months of mainly casual wear. I glued the soles back on myself for a further 5 months use before throwing them in the bin.

Supposedly waterproof karrimore boots definitely not waterproof!!! Ok till I walked through wet grass, feet soaked!!! Never buying karrimore again

Bad, avoid. Both boots fell apart after three months of light use, both soles detached. Sent photos to Karrimor and after a few email questions from customer support they finished with unable to help. Shame as the boot is really comfy.Avoid

Two months have passed and still no refund. Have had 4 messages from customer services asking the same questions. By 3 different people. Total shambles. AVOID!!!!

Bad product. hilking boot function said that waterproof but not and can't keep my foot dry. Never buy again and waste of money.

Bought a new pair of Karimoor walking shoes from sports direct and used them first time today and slipping in the rain.
Sports direct said don’t talk to us and contact the manufacturer and they don’t want to know either. Poor service from both.

I had the Karrimor Orkney boots from 2009 to 2023 and they were great - no complaints. I wouldn't normally buy walking boots online, but as I was in the market for the exact same pair, I didn't think there would be any issues. Unfortunately, I had forgotten the name of the boots (if I ever knew it) and seeing a pair online which seemed identical, confidently ordered what I thought was the exact same brown leather model - thrilled that it was a cheaper price than in 2009. I should have known it was too good to be true. On arrival, the Mendip 3 boots I'd ordered looked far less robust, with the big glaring difference being that instead of having the stamped-metal "Gore-Tex" sign on them, as my old ones did, there was a tiny (almost apologetic) "Weathertite" fabric label sewn into one of the seams instead. On double-checking the photos on the very famous website starting with A, where I'd bought them, I saw that none of the photos clearly showed this, or I would have noticed and not gone ahead - sneaky! On trying them on, while the fit was as expected, the comfort definitely wasn't. The stiff ankle area was brutal, even on a stroll around the sitting room. Instead of the soft leather of the Orkney, there was rough pot-scourer type fabric. Surely a hike would see my ankles rubbed raw? A well-fitting quality boot shouldn't need breaking in (my 2009 Orkneys didn't) - they should feel good from Day One. Full of doubt about this mistaken purchase, I decided to access Karrimor's website to try and compare specifications between the Orkney and Mendip 3 to see if I was getting anywhere near what I'd expected in terms of quality. No mention of "Mendip" when I did a search ... weird! And while looking I noticed that the Orkney now has a "Weathertite" badge on it in place of the Gore-Tex one ... so it seems that even those have been downgraded since my first purchase. Oh, and the price was £90 MORE than my 2009 purchase! I tried using the contact form, but it required an order number as part of the criteria for sending a query and I obviously hadn't bought from their online store as the Mendip 3 boot was nowhere to be seen. I went to their Facebook page and did a search ... again, no mention of "Mendip". Curiouser and curiouser ... it was as if they'd disowned this cheaper part of their range out of shame! I sent a polite message through Facebook but it's been two working days, now, and I can see that my message hasn't even been read, let alone responded to. A quick glance showed the page itself is full of Karrimor-generated marketing guff, interspersed with angry customers venting their comments on a number of product complaints, which are ignored. Not a great look. I guess I'll be sending the boots back, then (probably at my own cost, as it was my error) ... but, after seeing some of the reviews here, I'll count myself lucky not to have persevered with these "mystery" boots. What kind of a company doesn't even advertise and provide specs for their own items ... and makes it impossible to send a query? Avoid - I will be from now on. What a shame.

Can you leave a review less then 1 star??

Bought a pair of walking boots from Sports Direct, within weeks they're falling to bits and the customer service doesn't want to know. They keep refering me to Sports Direct. But ofcourse I haven't kept the receipt so they won't be able to help.

Just shocking that the brand itself isn't interested in the quality of their products and customers.

Had Karrimor mid walking boots less than 3 weeks. Water getting in through upper. Also, poor traction on soles - very slippery on wet surfaces e.g. tarmac/concrete path. Nearly fell a couple of times! Returned to store and got a refund. Will not be buying again.

Hot Rock walking shoes. I got fed up paying daft money for Merrell/Salomon who have clearly forgotten how to make footwear last, so thought I'd buy cheap and cheerful and not worry about longevity. So far I've had them 6 months, and have to say they are brilliant. Very comfortable and still completely waterproof - early days, but look very well made. My last pair of Merrell shoes had fallen apart by now and my wife's boots we're leaking from the second walk.

I Had a pair of walking boots last Christmas which I have only worn a few times on Tuesday the 12th September 23 It was a bit wet out and I put on my Karrimor boots it was a bit muddy as well in Matlock after a couple of hours both soles detached at the same time what a load of rubbish these are. People save your money keep away from this brand I have got some cat boots from 1995 and some military magnums from 2000 and these are better boots and are still in excellent condition. Very Disgusted and disappointed I shall not be purchasing another pair af shoes or boots with Karrimor on it.

As all other compaints. Sad. Do not buy.

Bought some karrimor training from Sports Direct... Sports Direct own karrimor after they bought the trade name after the real karrimor went bust in early 2000's. The sole started to peel away after 1 week. Not having kept the receipt I bought a second identical pair, kept the receipt so could return the 1st pair... The same has happened within 2 weeks to the 2nd pair. These are sports Directs budget range sold at premium prices. I'll avoid from now on

Bought for the kids and me. Varying price range from £25-£60. Absolute rubbish. Don't last two minutes before they start coming apart at the seams. The waterproof label should be removed by Trading Standards. Absolute junk. Shoe scam
