Well Go Outdoors have come up trumps and exchanged my devil shoes, blister forming evil monsters 😑 These are my replacements. I quite like the snazzy soles hence the upside down shotπŸ™ƒ

These have already been tested, and yes I still have my blisters, on the hamster wheel in the garage and they feel fine. Have to say I can't fault the store on their response. Absolutely no quibbles at all about changing them.

Love the swirly soles very fetching! Glad you got it sorted out swiftly and satisfactorily. Good for you - go fly with your new shoes. Up up and away!

Nice sparkly badge! Hope you've been polishing it today πŸ˜„

Yep. I don't mind polishing my badge - not keen on doing the furniture though πŸ˜€πŸ˜€

Ooh they look nice! Isn't it sad that we're always surprised by good Customer Service nowadays. So glad you got such a great outcome. Now go put some miles on them :)

Going to work them in a bit this time on the hamster wheel but at least I still have the trusty Lidl shoes to fall back on. Forgot to say these were cheaper too so I got a refund as well πŸ˜€πŸ™ƒπŸ˜€

I love the soles too. Pity they will be hidden πŸ˜”

I know the soles are more exciting than the uppers. Maybe I will have to learn to run in my hands !πŸ˜€πŸ™ƒ

The soles are for the benefit of whoever is running behind! As in "show a clean pair of heels"!

I'm loving the assumption that there would be someone behind me :-)
