As always, happy with quick delivery to the US. Quality shoes with a touch of class, fits like a sock with the same comfort.
The order reached Singapore on time as described in the delivery times. Everything was in perfect condition, box and shoes and even a free pair of sock. Too bad have to return it to exchange for half a size smaller due to this brand and design of shoes that runs bigger than other shoes. Really like the pop up window where someone is there to answer your question immediately. Really speed things up a lot and saves a lot of time. Rather than waiting for email reply. Will definitely shop here again.
No problem with the size, no problem with the real coulor and no problem with transporter
Great service from start to finish. From sizing through to fast delivery of a quality product .
Great quality shoes, fast delivery, low duties and taxes (I got my shoes shipped to Canada), and amazing prices! Loving my Loake Aldwychs right now!
Needed a good quality shoe tree for my shoes to keep them nice and the Barker brand are excellent at doing the job well. The shoes that I have used them in hold a good shape and the aromatic cedar that they are made from is ideal for the job.
Very easy and straightforward process. Shoes arrived from date of dispatch to my address in Beijing in less than 10 days.
no problems at all sending the order across the world to New Zealand , timely and accurate
They have a nice website on which you can filter your search. A huge selection from all top quality suppliers. Ordering and receiving my shoes went like clockwork. I have been very pleased with both purchases and would certainly think of them next time I buy shoes on-line.
Exceptional good website, ordering made very simple. Fastrack delivery service.
I purchased a pair of black Loake Chelsea boots from Robinson's, which, along with most other shoes held by Robinson's, are unavailable in the United States. I was content with the experience; the shipping was prompt; the packaging impeccable; and the products flawless.
Super quick (5 days) delivery of Loakes from UK to Melbourne. Perfect condition. Saved me $120 if I were to buy them locally here. Thanks :)
I recently ordered my first pair of shoes from Robinson's Shoes' website. The item was dispatched speedily. Customs information was clear helping the parcel to pass smoothly through customs. From Northern Ireland to delivery in New Zealand in about a week. That's great service. The shoes themselves are exactly what I wanted and fit perfectly. I highly recommend this company.
I would recommend this company to anyone.
I have ordered a few pairs from Robinsons for delivery in Hong Kong. The service and response has been excellent each time. Highly recommended.
Purchased a pair of Barkers Blair Cedar Calf / Fabric. Best price & Great service. Received in the less than 48hours & free delivery.
Searching for a particular style of shoe which i had previously owned - came upon Robinson's Shoes website - ordered at a great price with no delivery charge. Shoes received within 2 days. Even my "sceptical wife" was impressed.

Jul 21,2015Today I received a phone call from Robin Stewart, MD of Robinson's Shoes in response to the review I left yesterday. I didn't expect - but it was most welcome. It's fantastic to know that when customers are unhappy that companies are prepared to listen and respond in an appropriate manner - Robin obviously cares about his customers - rightly so. Would I have used Robinson's shoes based on my first experience? Probably not. Will I use them in the future? Definitely. My original feedback I called up by telephone prior to placing my order online and was told the shoes I required were in stock. I then received a call after my order was placed that they were not actually in stock. I confirmed that I would be receiving a refund and it was only after chasing up 8 days later was the refund processed and 14 days later the funds are still not back in my account.
