Gelert Recensioni 213

The soles of these boot have not done well at all I walk in them once a week they have lasted 11 months the soles have worn through and I have holes in the heels of both boots,The upper is of Gelert boots is ok ,Sports direct and Gelert need to get on top of this poor product.

Bought these last year.Be warned heels are not solid, they're quite hollow and split very quickly.
Absolute daylight robbery. Would never touch gelert footwear again!
Shameless that these are still on sale.
Sports direct need to check these on their quality control if they have one.

Poor quality soles. Worn out within 6 weeks of casual walking. Soles rubbing away and split, letting in water. Absolutely useless for anything more than walking around the house in. Shame, because they are comfortable.

Bought a Pair of Gelert Walking Shoes have had only a couple of months and already the sole has split and seeping in water.

Stay well Clear of this Brand as it is of inferior Quality would never ever buy this Brand again total rubbish

Lasted just 4 hours.
Purchased thermal socks x 6, the first pair lasted just 4 hours before the toes were through, tried the rest, all the same, absolute waste of time and the worst outdoor kit I have ever owned.Contacted Sports direct who stated they couldn't do anything with out the receipts, who keeps receipts for socks! they were still in their packaging but it wasn't enough, Gelert/ Sports direct seem to make it deliberately difficult.
Poor stitching on the seams, cheap and nasty with a loose fit, avoid these products.

Worst boots I have ever owned lasted 2 month and sole was worn through better wearing flip flops as feet always wet. Steer well clear in noway waterproof.

Bought some allegedly waterproof boots, thought they were ok for first few walks but,,, NO! Leaking crap, just like nearly every other. Better than Scarpa crap though

I bought a pair of Gelert walking boots approx Jan 2017 and have had no problems. I wear them for dog walking in squelchy parks and long grass during the winter months and they have always kept my feet dry.
An excellent product.

Bought a pair of Gelert walking boots as an extra pair of dog walking footwear. Very got soaked from the outset in light drizzle, I might as well just worn sandals. After only 2 months the heel on one boot had a hole in it!!!
Total waste of money!!

Literally the worst product I have ever bought. Yes they only cost £24.99, so reasonable price, but you expect a minimum of 6 months of use. I got 5 weeks!! Initially I thought they were ok and seemed waterproof after wearing them about 20 times in various weather and terrain. But 5 weeks in, I went on a dog walk and it was pouring. Within minutes my feet and socks were squelching. I couldn't understand it until I go home and checked them. The souls/tread of the shoes, so the bit you expect to be long lasting, both shoes had big holes in. After 20 dog walks, the souls had split, in different parts of each shoe. Absolutely shocking for a shoe that claims to be a walking shoe. If I could give this product 0 stars I would. Avoid at all costs. I thought I'd picked up a bargain, but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. But 5 weeks of wear, come on. Thankfully Sports Direct were excellent and they agreed to let me exchange, so I paid more money for a pair of Merrell walking shoes and they've been amazing, just like the reviews say.

I cannot endorse whatsoever Gelert Walking Shoes after this experience, a truly shocking product that shouldn't be on the market.

Waterproof jacket not at all waterproof
Bought one from sports direct costed me £28... Water started seeping in for the slightest drizzle...the water proof trouser pocket wasn't stitched costed me £12... I don't live in the UK so there's nothing i could do about it now.. waste of money...

I purchased a pair of Gelert Ottawa Mid Mens Boots which I wore whilst taking my dogs for a walk. My feet felt pretty damp fairly quickly, but I thought that it was my feet sweating. When I came home and took the boots off, my feet were absolutely soaking. I couldn’t believe it. The grass only had morning dew on it. I have now tried them a couple of times and have been soaked each time. I would be dryer wearing sandals.

I decided to take them back to the store where I had purchased them. Unfortunately, I was told by the manager that he wouldn’t even test them as they are not waterproof. Who ever heard of walking boots that are not waterproof? They leak, but he wouIdn’t test them. Even my canvas pumps don’t leave my feet as wet. I have spent £24.99 on a product that is completely useless to me.
I wish that I had checked the online reviews before buying them as the reviews are much the same as my experience.

Wish I had checked the reviews before I bought a pair of 'waterproof' walking shoes! After walking only a short distance, my feet were absolutely sodden. Utterly terrible.

Gelert walking shoes from Sports Direct - waste of money.
Bought these because they were described as waterproof.
They’re not.
My feet were soaked after walking through grass wet with dew.
Waste of money.

I bought a pair of Gelert walking shoes, wish I hadn't bothered! They are the worst shoes I have ever bought, my feet were soaked from just walking on wet short grass. The base lining in one shoe collapsed within a month, making it feel like I was walking on hard plastic honeycomb bricks. The most uncomfortable, waste of money ever. I will not buy anything Gelert again.

Gelert is now owned by Mike Ashley's Sport Direct empire, which effectively says it all. Taken what was a good reliable brand and turned it into tat!
My experience with these Gelert Horizon Low "shoes" is dreadful. To be fair they were only £24.99 however they are all but unwearable. They feel incredibly cheap with no support and an insole that is little more than a covering of cloth. The sole is cheap plastic and doesn't flex resulting the feeling that you are wearing clogs!!!
After 4-5 times on, and resultant sore feet, I have finally thrown in the towel and given them to charity (God help whoever has them though).
Cannot recommend - they are utter garbage!

Today was the first time I wore these boots on wet marshy terrain, and I have to say they were completely useless!!! Feet were soaking in no time at all. Avoid avoid avoid.

I was initially so pleased with these very comfortable and nice- looking Gelert 'waterproof' boots...until I walked on wet grass. Not waterproof! Also the heels have worn right through in just 6 months of daily dog walks ( minus the wet days when I had to wear my wellies) Not recommended.

I bought a pair of Gelert "hiking boots" as a gift for a friend. He wore them occasionally over about three months and both soles of the boots are completely worn through to the in the inside of the shoe. So I contacted Gelert themselves through their Facebook page where I found their reviews to be switched off on their page(big red flag for any company) and I found lots of people posting pictures in the comment section of their boots with holes in them. I got a message back to say I needed to contact sports direct themselves. Thats funny because sports direct say to contact the manufacturer. So they both like to pass the buck! Clearly the product is not fit for purpose and people should be refunded. I've ended up buying some lovely North Face hiking boots to replace their cheap chinese tack.

Tried to return a pair of leaky Gelert boots today, bought at the end of April used them on a couple of hikes but they leaked last week in mild rain. The shop assistant initially tried to tell me that the boots were not advertised as Waterproof, when I questioned who buys non waterproof hiking boots she assured me she knew lots of people who only used boots in dry weather. We live in Ireland it rains a lot and without warning. Anyway, it seemed I was getting nowhere when I noticed the boots have a small label stating "waterproof" did not get my money back but they exchange the Gelert for a karrimor pair which are theoretically a better boot. Time will tell.
Clearly Sports Direct know the Gelert product is not fit for purpose so why keep selling it.
