Tanner Shoes Avis 136

THIS IS A SCAM!!! After three weeks or so They've sent me a plastic shoe in plastic cheap packaging.

I thought I’d done a pretty good job researching Tanner’s shoes before I purchased, but I did not. The tracking number provided showed my items were coming from china so I went back into the Tanner’s Shoes site and realized there were no telephone numbers to reach out to someone at this American Company, nor were there any USA addresses I could send mail to. I ordered 3 pair of “leather” handmade shoes (one was a pair of boots which should be heavy if made from leather) and the unopened package states that the entire package weighs a little over 3lbs. The top label shows a Coppell, Texas address but it’s on top of the original label. I ordered the merchandise on 3/5/25 and the email I received stated “we’re hand making your shoes, please be patient with us”, when in fact the distribution center is in China. Tell me, how are the shoes hand made to order but sent from China? I did not open this package and am refusing it. The USPS will not take the package as the tracking number is from YUN express aka GOFO. Take photos of everything: emails, packaging, etc, to protect yourself. DO NOT OPEN THE PACKAGE!! Refuse and return to sender even though the second shipping label is not from the initial senders address. The email I got shows return to: china address w telephone number from china and it’s at your own expense. I took the package to Coppell TX and spoke with two people working at YUN express. The young Chinese lady let me into their building, took me into their warehouse and then I spoke with a young Chinese man who agreed to take my package and return to sender. I have saved all my emails for proof of how hard I’ve tried to refuse the pkg and used Apple Pay and have filed a dispute with them. BUYER BEWARE!! This is not an American company. Other reviews show their merchandise is crap, cheap, not leather and is stamped “made in china”.

The shoes are of poor quality and there is no sign of a natural product. Returns only possible to China although it is a online shop. Return costs then very high.

This is truly a BUYER BEWARE scenario. Be careful when you buy from this outfit. The advertising is grossly misleading. The quality of the shoes is junk and not worth the time or money. They smelled so bad that I threw them away. To return them for a refund was more taxing than it was worth.

All of the good reviews are fake. If you look at the images of the people, they’re all AI generated and the address listed for contact leads to an empty lot. Don’t fall for it.

“Buyer Beware”

If I could give them a negative number I would. I suppose they ran out of leather and decided to use vinyl to make my two pair of shoes. This type of quality is much cheaper to buy at a local discount store. Plus you won’t have to wait a month to receive them. Please realize that the shoes come from China, not from the US. They have no name stamped on the inside of them they are a very generic shoe. Nothing is done painstakingly except the consumer trying to contact Tanner Shoes Directly. They have an address out of Boca in Fla. and a phone number that no one ever answers. Most likely VOIP, but they have never answered. I paid approx 135.00 for these 2 pair of shoes, honestly I would think I can find something of better quality at a local Dollar General or other discount store and likely pay $30-40.00/pair. Your “sales” price of approx $65/pair is too much. Certainly your retail prices are plain robbery considering it being approximately $350/pair.

Bottom line-shipping took over 2 weeks, received shoes in bags(please note the Tanner shoe boxes on their website), no return slip no receipt in the shipping bag, 2 pair of vinyl generic shoes that the quality is sub standard at best, I personally would use the the term “pathetic.”

Whomever the two characters they are using as the couple who make these shoes and craft them with so much care and quality, should request Tanner Shoes to take them off of their advertising. I have visions of the “sweat shops” you read about in economics, who are making these shoes. If you want a good quality shoe, buy local or from a reputable online retailer. Otherwise, like me, you are throwing away a few hundred bucks to just turn around and go buy nice shoes at a local retailer. This really gives me that bad experience to buy online.

“Buyer Beware”

I can’t post the picture but the inside the shoe is stamped “Made in China”
Does this mean anything to where and who made these shoes?

Don’t be duped by the great looking website. Cheap trash that came in on a slow boat from China. Can’t even try them on because the off gassing of the plastic soles chokes me. Doubt they last very long. Bet the donation bin gets a prize.

shipped shoe 5 sizes too big, no return information

Tanner Shoes was and is running multiple adds, advertising (on their website too), that they are a mom-and-pop shop which is closing its doors for good. Tanner explicitly states that you must act now or the shoes will be gone because there is no replacements to be had. Total lie. I ordered a pair. Shipped from China. Cheap leather too.

I would like to know why my shipment is coming from china.

Unfortunately, this company is not real. One of the products on the fictitious website is straight from Temu... the "Jake" at a price of $59.99. The products are shipped from China via Yun Express. They are not handmade in America! Be warned, or you WILL be disappointed!!!
