The customer service has been fine and helpful. My issue is more with the quality of shoes. I ordered 2 pairs for my wedding to choose from and honestly would've sent them both back if i had more time. They look beautiful but my issue is with the fact that they look beat up after even just trying on. The white patent leather is annoying in that it is already getting those bent lines from wearing the shoe. After wearing for 5 mins. I cant imagine how they will look if wearing multiple times.

I finally found a pair of sandals wide enough to house my swelling feet. They seem sturdy and good quality, but the soles are thin so I can’t stand in them for long. I’ve had many misses with Wydr as they only make a 2E width and not a 4E. That meant a lot of buying and returning, making my biggest complaint with that process. The shoes are shipped from China and take forever to arrive. Then you have to email a request to return the shoes, then they request your foot measurements in cm. (Why? To judge if you chose poorly?) Then they send a US shipping label but deduct the cost from your return. For a $150-$200 pair of shoes that seems absurd. They need a quick and easy return portal and faster shipping.

I love that you specialize in wide shoes. Unfortunately the widths are not consistent. Some shoes are extremely narrow, and the leather is too stiff to stretch. Would like to see styles for older women, not just platforms and chunky heels. I keep maybe a third of what I order.

The shoes were super cute and length and width fit great. There was not enough arch support for the sandals to work for me, so I started the return process. There was a lot of back and forth. Are you sure you want to return them? Yes, please send the return label.... Then they could not find the email tread that had the information. The customer service is not great. I returned the shoes promptly, with all original packaging, including the outer shipping box. (You should keep that if you're not sure you will keep the shoes, you will need it.) I checked the tracking and they arrived this week and I am yet to hear from WYDR customer service or to receive a refund. I am hopeful to hear from them this week.

Edit/Update: After posting my original review, Wydr got in touch with me and assisted me in returning the incorrect shoes. My order was refunded and postage was also refunded. They were very apologetic. I would still say they have issues responding to emails and seeing/reading previous emails. I'm not sure what it's like on their side, but it felt like even though I always replied within the same email thread, they never seemed to read or acknowledge the previous comms. It was only when I posted on here that they responded to me. I think the exchange process needs an overhaul, like a printout form or something, as this whole issue was caused from mis-read emails. Overall, I'd still order from them if I didn't anticipate needing to return/exchange anything. Original: I ordered a pair of shoes on 11th of April. I realised before they arrived that I had meant to order a different style but the same print (leopard). I emailed them on 26th of April to ask what I should do, and if I could exchange them. They confirmed I could exchange them after several follow ups on 11th of May. They ask you to pay for postage and they will reimburse you which is awkward. I sent through postage receipt on May 16th, and I was only just reimbursed on 20th of June after they asked me to send through the receipt again and I followed up several times. They then re-sent the original shoes, even though I put in a handwritten note in the returned shoe box of the size and style I wanted to exchange for, in addition to stating this via email. It's now almost July, and they've since left me 'on read', refusing to respond to my emails asking what to do with this pair of shoes that they've sent me that I don't want. They seem to not be able to read email threads. I've sent them over 14 emails across two different threads and have heard nothing back except for that they have processed the postage reimbursement (and conveniently not replying to me asking for an update). Very disappointing.

I like the style of the shoes. However as I have stated in the past the soles are not flexible and make walking in some of your shoes difficult and clunky.

Their customer service response rate is slow and I have been waiting for almost a month for them to release funds for returns that I made back to them in the beginning of May. The shoes themselves were fine but I definitely wouldn't order from them again. Update: finally got confirmation of a refund. It happens eventually!

I bought three pairs of shoes (my first order through them). One pair arrived in about 10 days, and the other two took about three weeks (which I thought was a little long). The quality of two of the shoes was great, but one not so great - I will have to go to a bootmaker to have them repaired (the strap with elastic is not strong enough). I did write to the company with feedback, and after replying to my initial email, they said they would be in contact - and they haven't yet (that was 2 weeks ago). It is hard to buy shoes online when you can't try them on, so it is really annoying when you don't get something you are extremely happy about - especially when they are expensive shoes. I may order from them again, but I will look for other options too before I do.
