ReviewTerminal Summary

Hike Footwear has a severely divided customer base with a 2.6/5 rating: passionate repeat customers praise comfort and foot pain relief, while a much larger group reports unresponsive customer service, nearly impossible returns, and misleading return policies.

What customers love

  • Exceptional comfort and pain relief for plantar fasciitis, bunions, and foot problems
  • Lightweight, flexible design that feels good for extended walking
  • Some customers report excellent service and hassle-free exchanges when issues occur

Common concerns

  • Unresponsive and uncooperative customer service with weeks or months of delayed email responses
  • Deceptive return policy: advertised as easy/guaranteed but requires permission emails that go unanswered, items marked non-returnable if worn, and return addresses withheld
  • Chronic fulfillment issues including wrong sizes shipped, long shipping delays (2-3 weeks), and orders that never arrive
  • Quality control problems with shoes arriving defective, misshapen, or made of cheap plastic materials inconsistent with product descriptions
  • Aggressive counter-offers instead of refunds: discounts, exchanges, or retention tactics used to avoid honoring returns

These shoes are very lightweight and comfortable. I don’t like an high arch support and these are perfect for me. They slip on and off easily. Walking in them feels so good!

You have ZERO customer service

You have ZERO customer service. You have only AI which is often doesn't read whole sentences. We have no access to Human help. I LOVED my Flow shoes so much I ordered three more pair. They Finally came. I am Shocked that they are hard and made of plastic. They are also shown as hands free... but they have regular shoe laces. No instructions to make them hands free. These new shoes don't belong near the Flow shoe. Nowhere do you say these are hard soled shoes, nor made of plastic. You brag about them being flexible. They are not.

You are dishonest

You are dishonest. There is no guaranteed 30-day return policy, and you dislike your own goods so much don't even want it back.

I have been trying since the day after receiving the shoes to get a refund for two ( same size) of the three pairs I bought as well as the insoles. One pair was a gift of different size which fit the recipient. Their website page isn’t working and cannot locate a phone number. Finally found an email sent request and they just replied with offer to buy more shoes at discount. They listed a money back guarantee but I have been unsuccessful.

great shoes

great shoes! Still need to see how long they will wear. Need to read the small print on return policy. Pretty sure you're working always on smoothing it out. Delivery and return can use some work. Thank you!

I now have 4 pair of Hike Footwear and love them. My second order, the incorrect sizes were ordered, and I wanted to exchange them for the correct sizes. When I did, your company said not to return the incorrect sizes, just pay for the shipping of the correct sizes. Highly recommend these sneakers to anyone looking for a comfortable walking shoe. I was able to find neighbors that can wear the incorrect sizes and they love them also. Keep up the good work and good customer service.
