Return Policies
Because we deal only in the very highest quality shoes and socks, we are very confident that you will just love your new shoes and socks. However if you feel you do need to return an order here are our guidelines. Please ensure that you call or email us first before returning any goods for further instructions.

When you take advantage of our Perfect Shoe Fit Guarantee and your shoes still don't fit properly you may return them within 30 days for exchange or refund without a restocking fee being applied. You pay the cost of return shipping to us. Please note that we can only accept shoe returns that are in new condition and unmarked in any way. It is recommended that you try them for fit while standing on a carpet so as not to mark the soles.

Should you not take advantage of our Perfect Shoe Fit Guarantee and you feel you need to return your shoe order, you pay the return shipping costs and a 25% restocking fee. You have 30 days from receipt of your shoe order to do so. Please note that we can only accept shoe returns that are in new condition and unmarked in any way. It is recommended that you try them for fit while standing on a carpet so as not to mark the soles.

Clearly we want you to love your shoes AND we want them to fit you properly. We strongly encourage you to take advantage of our Perfect Shoe Fit Guarantee It is well worth it!

Please note also that the management of The Walking Store reserves the right in exceptional cases of charging a greater restocking fee. There has been a recent rash of what we can only call 'capricious' orders where 2 & 3 pair of the same or similar shoe or the same shoe in different colors have occurred without any intention of keeping all the shoes that were ordered - only choosing at home and returning the rest. We are a custom service store, not a high volume magastore that can afford to do that.

Should you feel you need more scope in a Return Policy we encourage you to visit our partner store - ShoeBuy.com (opens new window) - where there is a longer term return policy
