    Mizuno USA is a bunch of crooks. The way they do business is almost unreal. Promised multiple time a credit even on the same day I would never buy from mizuno again and plan to take this higher

    Mizuno Products are underrated, but when it comes to warranty and stuff that that is not the fall of the Consumer other than the workmanship or the craftsmanship My Mizuno MX G2 Wheeled Umpire Gear Bag has been very well taken care of very well stored. Nothing lays on top of it no matter what I take care of it like a newborn child. Im very cautious and overprotective, but the zipper on the main compartment after three maybe four uses of this Umpire equipment back the tab grippers to the zippers have came off very gentle with it and then now the zipper teeth will sometimes zip correctly and sometimes not zip together. I really do take pride and Mizunos products but also a secondary issue is the Mizuno Umpire plate shoes at the time they only had a size 8 and I need a 8 1/2 the reason being is because multiple orthopedic and my sports and medicine orthopedic surgeons said , you need a size bigger shoe no matter what shoe you wear authorized retail store I bought it from is saying sold as is when it comes to the Umpire place shoes. I cant even wear them trying to put my foot in the Umpire shoes causes pain because I have on both of my feet , I will have to have my big toe a full toenail remove and I will have to have Big Toe Fusion surgery im both feet and Mizuno Umpire plate shoes is the only thing I can comfortably wear without it rubbing or crowding and causing aggravating pain that just so darn painful but I did have the receipt electronically, but I do not have that receipt anymore because I no longer do business with the bank and havent for quite some time so Ill transaction history is gone. I went to the store multiple times and asked him I need a copy of the receipt and they said they only keep certain for so long before its no longer in the system so I can back up everything that I just said with a board certified surgeon that is my podiatrist and also a sports medicine board certified orthopedic surgeon. I can explain more details to mizuno USA

    Thank you for reaching out to Mizuno USA.  We appreciate all feedback regarding Mizuno products.  We are sorry to hear about the consumer's experience with the specified products.  We would certainly consider reviewing the products/purchases for warranty considerations.  However, I am not able to find any previous correspondence with this consumer other than a Chat regarding a different matter as well as a phone call with product questions.  

    If possible, it would be helpful for the consumer to send us images of the mentioned product as well as purchase receipts and/or more information regarding the purchases.  We understand the consumer may not have the receipts, however the name of the Retailer as well as the estimated date of purchase could help us investigate further.

    Spoke to Mizuno; sent 2 follow up emails; no response. First email below edited for space: Dear Mizuno Customer Support Team,I hope this message finds you well. I'm writing to you regarding a Mizuno golf bag that my son, ******, purchased in September 2022. ****** is captain of the **** Golf Team and bought this bag with his own earnings.Extremely satisfied with quality of the bag, which has been meticulously cared for and remains in excellent condition. Recently encountered an issue from a manufacturing defect: stitching that secures shoulder strap unraveling. Concerning because the bag has limited use, especially during the 2 seasons of winter months when the golf courses are closed in Northeast.Understand that your products come with a 1-year warranty on soft goods. However, I believe our situation is unique. The bag not been subjected to the normal wear one might expect over 18 months. The defect is manufacturing; rest of the bag is in pristine condition. ****** has a medical condition so he does not carry the bag. Instead, always placed on a pull cart, which significantly reduces the wear and tear with constantly lifting and carrying bag.I reached out to customer support and was informed warranty period elapsed and nothing could be done. I am respectfully requesting further review. I believe that customer service, especially in cases of manufacturing flaws, is crucial for maintaining customer trust in a brand like yours.Enclosed are photographs of the bag, which clearly show both the overall condition and the specific issue with the stitching. We value the Mizuno brand, and it would be greatly appreciated if this matter could be reassessed by your team.We are hopeful for a resolution that doesn't involve discarding a bag that my son has invested in and really enjoys. Your understanding and assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated. I am available for further discussion and can be reached at ************.Order: *********

    Business Response

    Date: 03/28/2024

    We appreciate the detailed information provided regarding the consumer inquiry.  I did find that the original emails that were submitted regarding the issue with the bag were sent to an unmonitored email box ******************************************** all warranty and consumer inquiries are actively worked from the following email box- ***************************************** .   An email was recovered from this consumer earlier this week and responded to from the ***************************************** email box.  We apologize if there was any confusion on how to contact Mizuno USA support team.

    Regarding the Warranty inquiry, our records indicate (based on details provided by the consumer) the bag was purchased in September 2022.  However, I have not found a receipt indicating or confirming the purchase date. Can that be provided?  Where was the bag purchased?

    As mentioned in previous communications with this consumer our limited warranty covers golf bags purchased within 1 year.  If this bag was purchased in 2022, it is well outside of our warranty periord for coverage.  Our most recent communication that was sent to the consumer on Monday was offering a replacement at reduced pricing.  It does not appear that we received a response as of yet.

    Complaint: 21491669

    Dear Mizuno Support Team,

    Thank you for your response to the Better Business Bureau regarding my inquiry about the Mizuno golf bag purchased by my son, Hunter. I appreciate your efforts to address this matter; however, I must clarify a few points.

    Firstly, I have not received any previous correspondence from Mizuno, including the offer mentioned for a replacement bag at a reduced cost. I have diligently checked all my email folders, including the junk/spam folder, and found no such communication.

    Regarding the purchase details you requested, the golf bag was purchased directly from the Mizuno website on August 27, 2022. I am attaching a copy of the receipt to this email for your records.

    I understand your policy regarding the one-year limited warranty. However, I would like to reiterate that this case seems to be an exception due to a manufacturing flaw, rather than wear and tear. The bag has seen limited use, as reflected in its excellent condition. Moreover, due to ******** medical condition, the bag is not carried around the course, further reducing typical stress and wear; plus the bag has been used on a limited basis as its been 2 winter seasons of unplayable gold since we reside in the northeast.

    While I recognize the offer for a replacement bag at a discounted rate, I am inclined to politely decline this proposal. Our primary concern is addressing what we believe is a manufacturing defect. As loyal customers of Mizuno, enjoying your golf and baseball products, we hope for a resolution that acknowledges this unique situation. We provided photographic evidence to support our claim of the bag's condition and the specific issue with the stitching we would be happy to resubmit those images if youd like.

    In light of these circumstances, I kindly request a reassessment of our situation, considering the manufacturing flaw and the limited use of the bag. We value the Mizuno brand and hope to find a resolution that reflects the fairness and customer commitment that ********************** is known for.

    Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I look forward to your response and am available for any further discussion that *** be necessary.

    Warm regards,
    *************************

    Business Response

    Date: 04/04/2024

    We appreciate the consumer providing more information regarding the purchase of the bag.  Given the circumstances the purchase is still outside of our limited Warranty policy coverage.  Also there is no way to effectively assess the bags usage and wear condition without physical inspection.  If the consumer is willing to send us the bag for further inspection we can make a better determination from there and then we can decide if an exception can be made.

    The offer for a discounted replacement still stands and we would be happy to forward any previous correspondence regarding those communications.  For further communication with the team it is still recommended to use the ***************************************** email address instead of the one used by the consumer.

    Complaint: 21491669

    Dear Mizuno Customer Support,

    I appreciate your recent response regarding the issue with my sons golf bag. However, I must express my profound disappointment with the stance Mizuno has taken in this matter.

    The suggestion that a physical inspection is the only effective way to assess the bag's usage and wear condition is not acceptable in our situation. We have provided detailed photographs and a comprehensive account of the bag's usage, clearly demonstrating the issue with the stitching and the excellent condition of the bag. These images unambiguously show the bag's condition and the specific manufacturing flaw we are concerned about.

    It is unreasonable to expect us to incur additional expenses to ship the bag for inspection, especially when the evidence of the defect and the bag's condition has been thoroughly documented and communicated. This approach not only imposes an undue financial burden on us as consumers but also disregards the detailed information already provided. I am willing to send additional pictures and even a video to further clarify the issue, but sending the bag at our expense is not a fair or viable option. 


    As loyal customers who have supported Mizuno products across various sports, it is disheartening to encounter such an unaccommodating stance.


    We have always valued Mizuno for its quality and customer service. However, this experience has significantly impacted our perception of the brand. The insistence on a physical inspection at the customer's expense, especially when ample evidence has been provided, is simply unacceptable.


    I urge Mizuno to reconsider its position and offer a more reasonable resolution that acknowledges the clear evidence we have presented. The proposed offer for a discounted replacement is not a satisfactory solution, given the circumstances of this case. We seek a resolution that fairly addresses the manufacturing flaw without imposing additional costs on us.


    Thank you for your attention to this matter. 


    Sincerely,
    *************************

    I purchased a set of Mizuno JPX irons several years ago and I continue to experience the heads coming off the shafts. I like the clubs however it is dangerous and there have been several occasions where the heads have hit other players. I have contacted Mizuno several times with no response. I would like to purchase another set of Mizuno irons but would like to receive some compensation for the 5 heads I needed to have remounted, so far.

    Business Response

    Date: 02/21/2024

    We are sorry to learn of the customer's experience with their clubs.  However, I am unable to find any previous correspondence with this consumer.  Can we have more information regarding the complaint-


    1) Do the clubs have a serial # ?  This will allow us to find the exact specs of the set.


    2) Can the customer provide a purchase receipt and images of the clubs?  This will allow us to determine warranty eligibilty.


    2)  Can the customer provide more details regarding their interactions with our support team?  Was the contact email, chat, phone, etc?  This will allow us to review how support was previously handled.


    Once we have some more information we can further review the situation and respond.


    Thank you.

    Business Response

    Date: 12/15/2023

    I reviewed the details of the complaint as well as all correspondence regarding the defective glove.  Typical procedure for defective merchandise is to replace with same or similar product.  However, in this circumstance since the product was purchased directly from our website we have offered the concession of refunding customer when product is returned.  A prepaid label was sent to the customer this morning.  Refund will be issued upon product receipt.

    Mizuno put out an alleged illegal coupon for 50% of their website. Myself as well as others used said coupon to purchase golf equipment at a discounted price. My order was cancelled stating there was no inventory. However, people placing order after me successfully not only placed but are receiving their orders. Mizuno stated the ones that got the coupon were lucky and we will not be honoring it for you. This is an act of discrimination! I have attempted to reach a resolution with them multiple times and am experiencing rude and condescending feedback for my request. This is unacceptable that you honor it for some and not others.

    Business Response

    Date: 08/22/2023

    I reviewed the complaint and attached correspondence.  The discount in question was intended for employees of a vendor/partner of Mizuno USA and was not meant for public distribution.  The discount code was compromised and shared on social media circuits. When this was discovered, the discount was canceled as well as any orders that were on backorder. 

    We are sorry to hear about the experience this customer had with the purchase and cancelation of the mentioned order.  However, upon a thorough review of the complaint and our records, it has come to our attention that there was indeed an oversight in internal communication and the application of the discount code to the order. While ineligible orders were fulfilled, our team was unable to fulfill all orders without verifying the eligibility on this order. Eligibility requirement would be an email address or other verification that this consumer is employed by our vendor.  We will be requiring the same verification for use of the discount for any orders going forward.

    Given the circumstances of this particular order though, we do understand that there was an oversight in communication and that some of the items were not actually on backorder.  We will extend a 50% discount offer to this consumer for one time use.  I will email the consumer outside of this complaint with the discount code and details regarding the use of the code.

    We apologize for any miscommunication or oversight that was made in this matter and will work with this consumer so that they can receive the discount.

    I am rejecting this response because: The way the customer service agents **** and Supervisor ****** treated me was borderline abusive! I was verbatim told I am s*** out of luck and constantly referred to as dude by your employees. This is not how a reputable company that has been in ***************** or any business period should be treating long standing clients. I understand now that the code was for internal use but how it got leaked was not something I am privy to. However, that does not give them the right to treat me like I am below their employees with their language. 50% off the clubs is what would have sufficed if I was treated humanely. I would kindly ask that the rectification be revisited.

    Sincerely,

    Business Response

    Date: 08/22/2023

    We are certainly sorry to hear that the consumer has rejected our response and that he is unhappy the way he was treated by Mizuno Support staff.  I have reviewed Chat Scrips and not finding anything condescending or derogatory from the Mizuno support team.  We were very limited on support we could provide regarding the compromised discount code and the orders we could not fulfill. 

    I would like to review the calls though to understand some of the statements made in the rejection response from the consumer.  They statements made certainly do not meat the standards of Mizuno USA customer service.  I am not able to find any calls from the phone number provided in BBB complaint.  Can the consumer please provide the phone number they called from, or the exact date and time of the calls so that we can narrow down the search?  Otherwise it may take some time to find the interactions.

    I would rather not wait. For your reference these calls were made between Tuesday and Thursday of last week. Multiple calls were made. Individual spoken to were ***** from **** who was the only helpful person. From mizuno it was a gentleman named **** as well a Supervisor by the name of ******. Let me know if you need anything else from my end. At this point we have agreed the 50% off should be honored. I am not asking to be given the clubs for free. Due to the lack of empathy for the situation as well the overarching rudeness I just request an additional 10-15% as well as expedited delivery.

    We are sorry to hear that the consumer has rejected our offer of 50% discount.  I have been listening to calls regarding the incident and unfortunately am not finding anything to indicate that the ** team was out of line.  I am sorry if the consumer feels differently, we will continue to work with and coach the teams so we are better prepared going forward.

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is not exactly satisfactory to me. However, it seems that at this time it is all I can probably get. It is really sad that big businesses can just push the consumer around at their will and we cannot do anything about it. I guess thats just how things have become.

    I purchased a brand new set of Mizuno golf irons. After hitting only 6 ***** with a few of the clubs, the faces have scratches and nicks all over them. At first I emailed Mizuno and they responded saying I can have the clubs inspected for a refund through an authorized Mizuno retailer (response attached). I then contacted the retailer in which I purchased the clubs from about a refund or warranty work, and the response from Mizuno was this is "normal" and "expected" wear and they will not do anything (attached is that response). I have had 5 top end sets of golf irons and I have never experienced this sort of wear after thousands of ball hits. My current golf clubs are at top end tour forged blades from Callaway and they have thousands of hits on them, and they look better than these Mizuno irons after 6 *****. What will these clubs look like after 100 balls? 500 balls? I have never seen this with any golf irons and Mizuno is wrong with their statement provided. Mizuno is false in their statements of this being normal wear and is not backing their products and quality under warranty. Mizuno is also giving conflicting direction and information as a company. I would like a full refund on these golf clubs.

    I have reveiwed the details of the complaint and do find that the details provided by the consumer are correct and consistent.  We have offered to inspect the clubs given the wear on the set.  However, we would not be able to issue a refund of any kind since the set of clubs were not purchased directly from us.  Referring the consumer to retailer is the correct course of action.

    A retailer has placed a new order for this consumer so the retailer is handling the consumer complaint as expected.  This being the case, we are under the impression the matter is resolved.
