Informative website

Informative website, which made my choice of shoe easy to select, shipping took a little longer than expected, but considering they shipped from overseas it wasn’t horrible.

Too many designs were out of stock.

The shoes i ended up with i am reasonably happy with but the lack of stock on the shoes I actually wanted is a concern. Many sizes in the design i wanted were out of stock. I was prepared to wait but not given this option.

Dear,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.

We sincerely apologize that the shoe design and size you originally wanted were out of stock at the time of your purchase. We understand how disappointing this can be, especially when you were willing to wait for your preferred model.

Due to the high demand for some of our most popular products, certain styles and sizes may sell out more quickly than anticipated. We are continuously working to improve our inventory planning and product availability. We also appreciate your suggestion about providing customers with the option to wait for a restock, and we will share your feedback with our team for consideration as we continue to improve our service.

We are pleased to hear that you are reasonably happy with the shoes you ultimately selected, and we truly appreciate your understanding and support.

Thank you again for your valuable feedback. We hope to provide you with an even better experience on your next purchase.

Yours sincerely,

Customer Service Team

The shoes are great service sucks

The shoes are great, but the service is the worst I ever received from a sports brand.
You want to sell outside China? Stick to local laws and reply to service mails.

“KailasGear.com FUGA Shoes – Poor After-Sales Support” (SCAM)



I ordered a pair of Kailas (FUGA) shoes in size 10.5, which is the same size I normally wear in Hoka, Nike, and other U.S. footwear brands, so I ordered the same size through kailasgear.com website

The shoes arrived and the quality appears good, but they fit noticeably too large, so I contacted Kailas to exchange them for size 10.

The response was disappointing for a premium technical footwear brand selling to U.S. customers. Instead of providing a straightforward exchange process, they suggested that I keep the shoes and either resell them or gift them to family or friends. That is not a realistic solution for a customer who purchased expensive performance footwear and simply needs the correct size.

I clearly explained that I am willing to pay reasonable return shipping costs. I already have the shoes packed and ready to return, but for international returns to China, proper return instructions and importer information are required. As of May 20, I still have not received the information needed to proceed with the exchange.

The product itself may be good, but the post-purchase support and exchange process do not match the premium image the company presents online.

If Kailas wants to seriously compete in the U.S. market, they should offer a more professional exchange system, ideally with a U.S. return facility or at minimum clear and timely return instructions for international customers.

As of May 20, I have not received any further response regarding my exchange request, so I will now proceed with contacting my credit card company regarding the unresolved return situation.

Also, customers should be aware that using the Shop App does not appear to provide additional customer service support or exchange assistance in situations like this.

Dear Customer,

We are very sorry for any inconvenience caused and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

Regarding your case, we would like to clarify that we initially offered a solution allowing you to keep the shoes, as an alternative option to avoid return shipping costs. However, as you preferred to return the item for a refund, this is absolutely acceptable. As long as the product is in its original condition and original packaging, we are able to process the return and refund according to our policy.

For international returns involving customs duties or taxes, we kindly ask you to provide your order number and return tracking number so we can further check the status and assist you accordingly. We will do our best to support you throughout the process.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

Yours sincerely,

I love these shoes but...

I love these shoes. They are beautiful, tactical looking, extremely comfortable on any terrain, very well made, and the BOA lacing system is amazing. Judging by the quality, I'm sure they'll last a long time. My only issue is the price. Are they worth that much money? Didn't even have my size {I'm a 10 1/2 US; had to get a size 10}. I can go on and on about the expensive boots / sneakers I own, but $370 for these? I chose to purchase them, they're awesome shoes,
But damn.

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER FOR ONLINE…

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER FOR ONLINE ORDERS. I STILL HAVEN'T RECEIVED MY EXPENSIVE BOOTS AND THE TRACKING HASN'T UPDATED SINCE 3/20/2026.

ALSO THERE IS NO ONE TO CALL AND THE ONLINE CHAT IS USELESS.

WILL BE LOOKING FOR A REFUND IF THE BOOTS AREN'T DELIVERED.
