New Balance DSL-2 Walkers..rubbish shoes, rubbish NB service

New Balance DSL-2 Walkers..absolute rubbish, bought these for elderly mum from a store some time ago, kept them new unworn in a moisture controlled environment with factory desiccants sachets. The leather condition is perfect, she put them on and both soles disintegrated.

NB scammed us for ~$100. This product unfit for purpose.

Emailed "service" New Balance AU with photos, they are utterly useless, immediately weaseled out, denied responsibility "our support team is only able to assist with products that were purchased directly from our website"..

Rubbish product, rubbish service, buyer beware, don't get scammed like us

Horrendous ‘Returns’ Policy. NEVER AGAIN!

Bought a pair of 1080V12s in the same size as another Fresh Foam X model of NBs that I’d been sized up for. I then learnt online that for some silly reason, the 1080V12's are a full size bigger.

I received them and they appeared to have the right amount of toe room, so I tested them on a light run on concrete. They didn't fit right. I approached NB about their refund policy and was told that if I sent them for refund and they were deemed to not be 'as new' that NEW BALANCE WILL DISCARD THE SHOES AND NOT ISSUE A REFUND.

Buyer beware, if you get these the slightest bit dirty after trying to get a feel not inside (running shops let you do this), the brand's policy is you can submit a return for refund, and if they deem the quality insufficient they will THROW AWAY YOUR PURCHASE AND KEEP YOUR MONEY.

NEVER AGAIN NEW BALANCE!

I’ve been trying to get a hold on them…

I’ve been trying to get a hold on them on the phone and email the last week. I was advised to find my normal size in children size by one in the store, so I ordered the size from the website, but it turned out to be a size smaller than told. I used the mayhem40 code to get discount and would like to reordee the shoe to the same price in the right size, but as I said, it’s not possible to get a hold on New Balance.
Bad service 😞
