I'm going to try these. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-sandal-purchase-and-review-walking-co---abeo-brand#post-1002363 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 16:46:19 +0000 abc 1002363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wish I had time to make it to the store while I was in Austin, but I didn't. &nbsp;I might have gotten myself in trouble if I did, though. &nbsp;Both pairs I ordered online were FAB, I cannot wait to wear them and I can totally tell they are going to be workhorses. &nbsp;I have a hard time telling myself no while shopping so I probably would have walked out with several more pairs!</p> <p>Re their customer service, it seems really good from my few experiences:&nbsp;<br />1. I called the local Austin store before ordering online&nbsp;to ask if they carried the gold pair in store, but they didn't. &nbsp;The guy told me if I order them online and they don't fit, I can come in the store to return them and they would do a scan of my foot and guide me toward shoes that would fit well. &nbsp;I think this is a standard service they offer in the stores.<br />2. &nbsp;They will allow you to wear the shoes for a month (at home, on carpet) to decide if you really want to keep them. &nbsp;If not, they will accept the refund. I guess this isn't too different from many other retailers but he actually encouraged me to try them this way to confirm the fit was good.<br />3. &nbsp;I paid only $5 for extra fast shipping (normal shipping was free)</p> <p>Overall my experience was great. &nbsp;Next time I'm in town I might stop by the store just to check out the stock vs online (though I know onilne they have WAY more selection).</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-sandal-purchase-and-review-walking-co---abeo-brand#post-1002347 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 16:30:02 +0000 rachylou 1002347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the Laguna's, but I also see how incredibly versatile the first pair will be. I didn't realise the Walking Company had so many stores all over the country (I just looked them up). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-sandal-purchase-and-review-walking-co---abeo-brand#post-1002338 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 16:20:18 +0000 Anonymous 1002338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great to hear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-sandal-purchase-and-review-walking-co---abeo-brand#post-1002334 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 16:16:24 +0000 abc 1002334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As some of you know I am preparing for a trip where I will be doing a lot of walking. &nbsp;I received 2 pairs of sandals from the Walking Company last week and I wanted to share my thoughts with YLF.</p> <p>I narrowed it down to two pairs on an earlier thread. &nbsp;I asked if anyone had experience with this brand (Abeo) but I got little feedback. &nbsp;I went ahead anyway as I've heard good things about The Walking Comapany in general for comfortable shoes.</p> <p>Well, I must say I am thrilled beyond belief - both pairs I got are totally comfortable yet stylish. &nbsp;I can wear them all day and test drove them on days where I did a lot of walking, and they were super comfortable out of the box. &nbsp;No slippage, no rubbing, no blisters, nothing!</p> <p>The two I got are:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.thewalkingcompany.com/abeo-brooklee-neutral-champagne/27623">http://www.thewalkingcompany.c.....agne/27623</a><br />and<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.thewalkingcompany.com/abeo-laguna-neutral-orange-multi/28213">http://www.thewalkingcompany.c.....ulti/28213</a></p> <p>I was going to get only one but I am glad I decided to order both, and after trying them on, I am keeping both! &nbsp;They are going to be workhorses in my WFH/MOTG life, not to mention how valuable they'll be while on vacation.</p> <p>I hope this helps someone along the way if needing info on this brand.</p> <p> </p>
