When such a high quality product meets personal service it completely changes how I feel as a customer. I was traveling and very confused about something I was trying to order, and they were fast, kind, and helpful and made the whole process smooth and easy. It's actually fun to shop with them. 10/10

Hella Heels Glitterati Open Toe Sin City boots

I have bought a pair of Hella Heels Glitterati Open Toe Over The Knee 8inch Boots - Sin City for an upcoming showcase as I find the boots very beautiful and flattering. Unfortunately, I was extremely disappointed of the material. It is extremely faulty, as I danced in them 3 times for rehearsals only (no crazy tricks or a lot of friction with the floor) and they have already ripped in the front and are already blistering as well. I also do not like at all the sole of the shoe, the friction with the floor is horrible. I have owned several pairs of heels for pole and I am aware that you need to 'break them in' but this is the first pair where I hated from the beginning how they felt.

I cannot dance in them for the show and unfortunately I find them poor quality for the huge price they had (185€). Never giving up my pleasers ever again :)

Reply from Hella Heels

Hi Dora, thank you for taking the time to share your experience — and for choosing Hella Heels for your showcase. We’re really sorry to hear that these boots didn’t meet your expectations.

We completely understand how disappointing it can feel when a pair of shoes doesn’t perform the way you hoped. Our shoes are designed and tested with dancers in mind, but like all pole footwear, fabrics can naturally show wear and tear with use. Depending on factors such as movement, flooring, friction and fabric type, this can sometimes appear sooner than expected — even after only a few wears. While this is considered normal for pole shoes, we absolutely understand how frustrating it can be when it happens earlier than anticipated.

Regarding the soles, they are designed with a higher level of grip to prioritise safety. Many dancers prefer to gently buff the soles to reach their ideal level of traction, as this allows them to customise the grip to their personal style and floor type. We believe this approach is safer than producing soles that are too slippery from the outset.

If you have any further concerns or would like us to take a closer look, our customer care team is always happy to assist via hello@clubhellaheels.com

Thank you again for your feedback — we truly appreciate you taking the time to share it with us.

Purchased a few pairs of Hellas from Depop and on the website, On Depop I especially correspond with Lily and she is THE sweetest person ever,
My Depop order was accidentally shipped to the wrong address and without missing a beat Lily contacted me to let me know of the mixup!!
She’s sweet,kind and very professional.

Highly recommend Hella and their staff attitudes towards their customers 🥹

No communication with the companys customer service

I made an order of a pair of shoes for a friend. Everything was perfect delivery quick item the right one and all. The problem started when unfortunately the size was too small for my friend and I ve already deleted the order email. As a result I am 2 days now emailing the company trying to find out my order number so I can register the shoes to the return portal. The company is getting back to me via automated bot emails not giving me the order number which without it I cannot register for a return or an exchange. I ve sent one last email now and waiting for their response once more in case this time I can actually find out what my order number was. I decided if I get again the same automated bot response I will finally dispute it with my bank as I am not willing to lose so much money for a pair of shoes that dont fit.........

reply: its wasnt resolved the next day it was resolved after I disputed with the bank and also my bank couldnt find resolution for another 1,5 day..... Also I dont have account so couldnt find my order number anywhere... And it wasnt the multiple emails i sent because I was getting answers from you that werent helpful at all and then I was sending again.... Not good service at all for me.....

Hi Vasiliki,

Thank you for trusting us with a gift for your friend! 💛 We understand that you deleted your order confirmation email and contacted us to obtain your order number in order to register a return, and that the response time felt urgent from your perspective.

We aim to reply within 2 business days (excluding weekends and public holidays), as outlined in our automatic replies. These also explain that sending multiple messages can delay responses, as we work through enquiries in chronological order.

We can see that your query was resolved the following day, within our stated response timeframe. For future reference, your order number can also be found by logging into your account on our website, which may help speed things up in similar situations.

We truly appreciate your patience and understanding, and we’re always here to help however we can. Thank you again for reaching out and for giving us the opportunity to clarify this.

If you feel this resolution better reflects the support you received, we would greatly appreciate it if you could consider updating the rating on your review, as it helps ensure that our customer service is accurately represented.

I love Hella Heels

I love Hella Heels! Ever since my first pair, I have sung their praises. They are customer focused. They go above and beyond for their customers. Hella Heels were not my first pair of pole heels, but I definitely have more Hellas than any other brand do a reason.

One of the worst after-sale service

Over a month before I received my order, a pair of red glitteraty shoes, which was defective. Both shoes came with a visible cracking in the paint where the upper part of the shoe meets the sole. Of course I immediately sent Hella the first email, where I explained them the flaw of the shoes and attached them the relative photos. After numerous emails, 40 days and many photos and videos where the defect is obvious, they still insist that this is just glue and it can be removed with aceton. This is an unacceptable response when the defect is obvious and especially from a brand with such a prestige... It was the first and totally the last time I bought from Hella Heels!

Hi Konstantina,

We are genuinely sorry to hear that you’re not satisfied with the resolution offered so far. Please rest assured that we do take your concerns seriously.

We’d like to provide a little more context around the process we’re following. During manufacturing, a small amount of glue residue can occasionally remain, as sufficient adhesive is required to ensure the shoe’s structural integrity to withstand the demands of pole dancing. While this can be visible, it’s considered a minor cosmetic issue and is typically easy to remove, which is why it’s treated differently from structural defects or permanent aesthetic faults.

We completely understand your concern that this may not be glue residue, and that’s a valid point. However, as we’re only able to assess the shoes remotely via photos and videos, we do need the suggested removal step to be tried before we can move forward. This helps us determine the most appropriate resolution and is part of our standard procedure.

If you don’t have acetone nail polish remover available, you could also gently test one of the loose areas to see whether it lifts or peels.

Once we’ve heard back from you with the outcome, we’ll be able to proceed with the most appropriate resolution.

We truly appreciate your understanding and cooperation while we work through this with you.

Only Shop I Buy Pole Shoes From - Love this store!!!

I have purchased and returned clothes and shoes from this company and have always had the sweetest customer service experiences. My most recent interactions were with Daphne and Elizah; they did an incredible job resolving my problems via email in a professional, quick and fair manner. I'm obsessed with this store! The fashion is to die for and I love that my purchases get delivered at lighting speed and consistently tracked so that I always know when my package will be delivered. The clothes and shoes are also of the highest quality. I think this shop has the best returns and exchange process... Add a small fee to return/exchange at no additional cost and the returns portal is very easy to navigate. Returns and exchanges are a piece of cake, never have had any issues with them, love em!

Amazing customer service

I accidentally ordered the wrong shoe size, but luckily Hella’s customer service was amazing! I was a bit nervous since I’m ordering from outside the U.K., but right from the first message, they made me feel totally supported - and they really came through. So kind and helpful throughout the whole process. I’ll definitely be ordering again! :)

Customer Service is Questionable

No complaints about the products, but customer service. In the last year they have gotten my orders wrong 3 times. I ordered the gunmetal stilettos but they shipped the silver ones instead, when I messaged them about it they said it was the right product and that the lighting was just wrong, I had to point out that the bar codes on the invoice versus the shoebox was very different to convince them that I actually knew what I ordered; they only offered a partial refund if I kept the product and I had to pay for shipping if I wanted to return it. 2 and 3rd issue was that they don't actually look at the quantity you order, I bulk ordered shoe protectors but each time I only received one, it seems like they don't read the quantity part of the invoice. It's kind of getting tiresome having to deal with the same issues for each order.

Thank you for your feedback and for being a long-time customer — we truly appreciate your support over the past 2.5 years and the many successful orders you’ve placed with us.

We’d like to clarify a few points while also acknowledging your frustration. When an incorrect item is sent, we always cover return shipping, and we’re sorry if there was any misunderstanding around this during your experience. The issues you mentioned were the result of fulfilment errors rather than customer service, and our records show that our customer service team worked consistently to assist and resolve each concern as promptly as possible.

While we already have multiple checks in place within our fulfilment process to minimise errors, it’s clear that in this case those checks did not work as intended. Your feedback has been shared with our fulfilment team so we can further strengthen these processes.

We value your loyalty and regret that these recent experiences did not reflect the high standard you’ve come to expect from us. We hope to have the opportunity to make things right and restore your confidence.

Excellent quality and customer service

Excellent quality products as well as customer service. When my package was damaged during the shipping process, one of my items fell out and was lost. I contacted HellaHeels customer service and Daphnie dealt with the missing item so fast! I received the missing item today and I couldn't be happier with the attention I recieved. Thank you Daphnie and HellaHeels!

Hi SoloDex,

we’re really sorry to hear you received the wrong item — we understand how frustrating that must have been, especially with customs fees involved. It appears the incorrect shoes were placed inside a box with the barcode matching your order, and because our third-party fulfilment centre relies on barcodes when picking items, this mistake unfortunately wasn’t detectable during packing. We completely share your frustration.

I can see that our customer service team has already been supporting you. As you preferred not to have the correct item resent, the incorrect pair has been returned and a refund for the item and original shipping has been issued. We’ve also arranged a solution regarding the customs fees you paid.

We’re genuinely sorry that you didn’t receive the shoes you were hoping for, and that your first experience with Hella Heels was affected by this human error. We truly hope we’ll have the chance to give you a much better experience in the future.
