The boots I purchased are fabulous

The boots I purchased are fabulous. fit is great and quality of material good too. I like this brand for staples - footwear that can be worn for years due to their good quality and more or less timeless design.
Shipment and delivery experience was great from the get go. Would recommend this brand 😁

Very good

Very good. I bought online but style did not suit. So returned to shop and actually bought a different style.
My previous boots are always admired.

I'll never order from Carl Scarpa again...

Order placed on 13 January 2026, but no communication about when to expect delivery. This is concerning considering how expensive the boots are and money has been paid. Telephoned a couple of days later, spoke to Michael who tracked my order and said they were out for delivery and I could receive them in the next couple of days. Sure enough I did (arrived Sat 17 Jan 2026) but the boots had 3 colour flaws down the front of one boot and the zip got stuck half way down the same boot. They should have been checked before being despatched! I immediately returned them on Monday 19th January 2026 and tracked the return. Boots were received back at Carl Scarpa following day but refund didn't appear in my account. Rang, spoke to Michael again (it appears he does everything in the "office end" of business and is clearly overworked). He told me that refund would appear in my account within 14 working days (this is ridiculously slow). Finally received refund on 29 January 2026 (9 days wait). I will NEVER again order from Carl Scarpa.

Reply from Carl Scarpa

Hi There,

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed experience, and we’re very sorry for the frustration and inconvenience caused.

The condition in which your boots arrived is not the standard we aim for and we take your feedback seriously regarding this.

Regarding shipping, our estimated delivery timeframes are stated on our website. For UK orders, we allow 2–9 working days for delivery as these are dispatched from our Irish hub.

In relation to your return, this was received back with us on 20/01 and the refund was processed on 28/01, which is well within our stated returns timeframe of 14 working days

That said, we do recognise your overall experience fell short of expectations and we will ensure this feedback is shared with the relevant teams for review.

If you would like us to look into anything further, please don’t hesitate to contact us

Best Regards,

Michael

I absolutely love Carl Scarpa boots and…

I absolutely love Carl Scarpa boots and shoes, they are so original and great quality. The ladies in the shop in Cheltenham are great and when ordering online the delivery is quick. Love the boots as they have narrow fitting ankles and calves which is great for me.
