Oh no..... The running trainers I've ordered are the wrong size 😭. Now I have to send them back and wait for a refund to re-buy them even though I ordered the correct size 😡

That’s not on... who did you get them from? That’s terrible service.

They were only from m&m direct. They were half the price of the shop for the same pair that's why I ordered them should've just bought them from the shop 😭

Well, no... we all love a bargain and why pay more... just sucks that you have to wait now. I’ll add them to my “not having my money” list.

It's crazy, they are usually good as I've ordered clothes etc from them before but they've dropped the ball this time.

I can wait for a shirt... but shoes? No way... I feel for you.

I'm going to see if my mom will re-buy them whilst I send the ones back and give her the refund. Won't have to wait as long then.

Need to sort it because my feet are killing me. 😢

Sounds like a good plan to me.

Did you have a gait analysis? It's always best practice as feet can change, so wise to do that every time replacing running shoes, plus there can be size variations with different brands, then there's correct width, as for length a running shoe may need to be at least 1 size bigger than your usual shoe size..

Sorry just saw this message. Yes I did one. I never buy trainers that are a perfect fit. Always allow room for my feet to swell when they get hot and sweaty lol
