I ordered 2 pairs of sandals on May 5, 2024 for a total price of $96.60. The Earth shoes website clearly states that "ALL ORDERS OVER $50 in Contiguous *************: 5-7 ************ Ground Shipping-FREE". When I did not receive an email that the order had been shipped on the seventh day, I logged in to check the status of the order. The website shows it was still being processed. So I contacted the company through email and asked that the order be canceled because they were unable to meet the expectations of their shipping policy as stated on their website. I received a response two days later. The company states that the order cannot be canceled and that if the order status has not changed by 5/24/24 then they can refund me. I emailed the company back with a picture of their shipping policy and a picture of my order that still has not finished processing 9 days later. I requested the order be canceled again. All I want at this point is for the company to cancel my order. I did read the reviews on the ******** page yesterday, 5/13/24. There are NUMEROUS complaints about the exactly same issue I am having. Some of the comments state that the shoes didn't come for months after the order. I want the company to cancel my order. It has not been shipped so that should be possible.Customer response

I ordered a pair of boots February 29th, received them March 11th and by March 20th the heels were falling apart. I contacted the company for a refund or exchange they refused on the basis I'd worn them. This is unacceptable customer service and a TERRIBLE product. I want my money back or a new pair of boots. I don't think this is unreasonable. What kind of company doesn't stand behind their products if they're FALLING APART after being worn for less than TWO WEEKS?!Customer response

I have not heard from the business in response to my complaint. It took me over a month to get help from them before I filled this complaint. THEY TOOK so much time getting back to me then claimed I was outside the 30 day return window. It's a horrible company who sells junk at high $$$$ and don't stand behind their products.Initial Complaint

I received my order today from Earth Shoes.com and they sent me the wrong size, women's size 5 when I wear a size 10. I tired to return and get a label, as per the online instructions, but it kept wanting me to order something else and wouldn't allow me to get past that without ordering. It directs you to go through Happy Returns. This is not "Happy" and I'm not sure why it's such a challenge to return directly to the company. Normally I order everything through Amazon and it's always an easy return process. I won't be ordering directly from Earth Shoes again. I would like a full refund but no one could help me.

Placed order on October 8, 2022. 3 sets of shoes. Money was charged to my account right away. Received 2 of the sets, and have asked for a refund on 3 set as not received these shoes. All so no comments from Earth shoes if they are on thier way or refund will be taken care of. They have ignored my recent emails and request for information. All I want is a refund at this point, sounds like the same problem posted from other customers.Initial Complaint

I ordered 2 of the same in different sizes with the intention of returning the one that didn't fit. Both didn't work and I called the same day to start a return. I was not able to reach anyone via their customer service number. An email response said a return was not possible. It was not stated on their website anywhere that a return was not possible. It was only visible AFTER the purchase was made. I'm seeking to be able to return these items as I cannot use them. I have been an Earth customer for many years. Thank you for your assistance.Customer response
