Kizik reviews and discussion

I have the latest model Kizik shoe. It lasted about seven months before the heel surround fabric tore loose, and the foam rubber padding started to come apart. I photographed the shoes and sent an email with pictures attached so that the company would consider a rebate or replacement shoes. They refused, saying that the shoe’s damage was due to “wear and tear”. So, no rebate. These shoes don’t always slip on easily. I would imagine that as the company sees so many “1” ratings, they might upgrade their shoes, but maybe not. Based on my experience, try buying slip ons from another producer.

Design flaw I purchased Men’s Athena 6 months ago. I really like the look and the feel and shared that with many. However, both shoes developed a hole in the heel. I sent an email with pictures to Kizik and was stunned when they completely dismissed my compliant. The shoes clearly have design flaw.

Fabric on the front of the toebox started to deteriorate and unravel four months after purchase. Of course that is beyond the 90 day warranty so I would surmise by design they’re good for 3 months. At this price point I am disappointed in the substandard quality of the product and lack of customer service. Not worth the price. Don’t buy these overpriced shoes.

Got a pair of these when I was pregnant and couldn’t touch my toes. These made it so much easier to put my sneakers on! I did size a half size up. I added no tie laces to make it even easier. They don’t have very much support and an insole is helpful especially if you want to do any type of work out in them. They have gotten pretty dirty from everyday use and they aren’t the easiest to clean.

Okay I got my first pair of Kizik shoes (Vegas in pebble grey) in December and they have quickly become my favorite shoes ever. They really do work and no-hands shoes! I do wish they had a bit more of a supportive base. I'm hoping the more athletic sneaker style does so I can wear them on longer walking days! Why didn't I find these sooner!

I bought these shoes for my father who is 80 years old and lives in a retirement home (for Christmas last year). He found them very comfortable and wore them a lot, but never wore outside as it was winter time. I live 3000 miles away from my father, and I went to visit him in June. This was the condition of the shoes (note he has the heel part taped up because it fell apart) I was very surprised so I wrote the company asking for compensation. Their response to me was they would give me a 15 percent off a new pair and that this was considered normal wear and tear. If this is normal, wear and tear for 6 months on an 80 year old in a retirement home, I would not want to see what they look like after one year on a teenager or a man that is using them outside. It also surprises me that they think I would want to buy another pair using their discount which was very minimal.

Id never before age 35 ever heard Of this brand of cheese, however, after being gifted a pair for my birthday in august; I absolutely,hands down, rate them a full 9.7 out of 10! They extra comfy ease of putting them on w- no more than jus simply stepping into them! No hands! No bending, wiggling your foot in to get that "just right & fitted feeling"! They not only are rated top of the totem pole for comfort and convenience, but their simple yet sofisticated style is easy to clean and matches anything!!! I love them! Id most definetely recommend these shoes to people i know!! Made for ease to comply with some specific needs we come along in life, but they are uniquely and superbly made for all ages and sizes!! These would even Bring total ease & comfort to pregnant women (we women know how nothing is Comfortable when your pregnant..) One of the best shoes ever made!! Every one should have a pair !!

Great for slipping on without needing to tie them, so great for kids, elderly and, like me, the lazy. Within three weeks though walking in these shoes sounded exactly like cheap flip flops, which made me feel self-conscious. The shoes tended to pinch my toes, but I admit I do have wider feet. And they seemed to have very minimal padding, judging from my pair, my wife's pair, and my daughter's pair. Finally, with all these factors in mind, these shoes are wildly overpriced, even considering the inflation. Final verdict: it's best to look elsewhere.

Absolutely obsessed with my Kiziks. Breakdown below: PROS: - They do what they say they do. Easiest slip-on sneakers I've ever found. - High quality sneaks; they live a long time - Really cute designs - Super comfy to wear - Sizing is accurate CONS: - None to report! huge fan. Have multiple pairs & going to keep buying 'em!

I'm so glad I bought these shoes. They're super comfortable and truly are hands-free. I have wide feet so usually struggle to find shoes that aren't too tight. Truly a life upgrade. I'm looking forward to easy on-off next time I fly.

I heard about the brand on an app that connects moms and moms to be. I was looking for comfortable sneakers to wear during my pregnancy I was indecisive about the purchase due to the price point but the promise of comfort and the slip-on design were claims that made me pull the trigger. I got a pair of the Milan sneakers in the bone color. I wore the sneakers for the first time on a trip to Disney and they were a blessing. Now, I don’t take them off. The style also works with different outfits, from dresses to leggings, and the color hasn’t been a problem. They still look white/beige. I really like my sneakers! Something I also enjoyed from the brand, was its active communication to keep me updated about my order. That was great! But now, something I don’t enjoy is that they send me too many emails, and it is not as if I’m going to buy another pair of sneakers after a month of my initial purchase.

LOVE this brand!! This shoe does EXACTLY what it says it can do! Enter your shoes without hands. I'm not usually a person who spends $100 on shoes for myself that is why I started the Kizik journey by buying them for my husband! After seeing his reaction, I tried them myself and now own three pair. The ordering and returning processes is very good and reliable. I know this because I've ordered a style that I thought I would like, but did not like the fit. I love using these shoes without socks!...which is another thing I dont usually do. I truly wear them around the house almost like slippers because they are THAT comfortable. Also of course, they are perfect for at the airport and I was thrilled to see them advertised on the "stuff" bins that you slide across the belts at the security check at airport! ALSO, I've put them in the washer and they turn out great!

The most innovative step-and-go experience for a shoe. These are game-changers for me when I am rushing out the door or have my hands full. I continually run into situations where my Kiziks have come in handy. My grandpa also LOVES them as he doesn't have to bend down to tie his shoes anymore.

My daughter has a pair of infant sneakers. They are super cute, very comfortable, and extremely easy to slip on and off. My husband and I want a pair ourselves now!

These are my favorite shoes and honestly all I wear these days. I have arthritis in my fingers, and the fact that I don't have to mess around with laces and can just step into these is a game changer for me. They look cool, they're high quality, they're super comfy... they're just the best. I recommend them to everyone, and I'm so glad they're now doing kids shoes!

I was skeptical at first, but received these as a gift and have actually ended up using as my primary shoe. The convenience of slip ons is just so awesome!

I personally haven't used these BUT I have gifted two pairs of these to a parent, and they love them! I think this is a great idea for an underserved segment. Until my parent had issues, I never thought about the seemingly simple act of putting on your own shoes. My parent's had no issue with the functionality of the shoe, and I'm just happy that they don't look medical grade/orthopedic/old.

I have 3 pair of the Kizik "Lima". I bought the first pair (white) after knee surgery in 2021. After wearing them a few days I noticed that the fabric covering the toe box had begun to pucker. It kept getting worse and so I contacted Kizik to tell them I thought I had a defective pair. It took several weeks of emails and sending photos to get their attention. At first they told me that the shoes were just dirty and I was experiencing normal wear. After several more emails they finally were able to see the problem and agreed to swap them out for me. The second pair (tidepool) are great and I really like them so when a friend asked me what I wanted for my birthday, I asked for another pair (merlot). they arrived a few days later and they were also defective--same problem as the first pair. I reported it to Kizik and they told me again that there was nothing wrong with the shoes. its like beating my head against the wall trying to get them to even acknowledge there is a problem. All in all, this tells me that they have poor quality control and that they do not stand behind their products. Its a great idea to have a slip in sneaker but their execution is poor. The shoes are comfortable and the colors are nice but they don't hold up and they look bad when I am wearing them. Two of the 3 pair I own are defective which is pretty bad odds in my opinion. I cannot recommend them.

I wanted to love these shoes. I really did. But I don’t. PROS: the heel is very comfortable and it is easy to slip your feet into to the shoe. CONS: they don’t fit well. I could have easily fit into a 7 rather than an 8, even though every other pair of shoes I own are size 8. I think their advertising and pictures are a little misleading. I thought I was getting shoes that didn’t need to be laced, although they had the appearance of laces. I have other shoes that work that way. When I received these, I saw that they had regular laces but I was able to slip them on without having to untie the laces. However, they were way too loose. I had to tighten the laces significantly to get them tight enough. As a result, they are all bunched up at the top of my foot and don’t look good at all. I still can’t get the laces tight enough to make the shoe fit like it should. Plus, the laces flop around on the top of my feet. I’m disappointed after paying $129 for this pair of shoes. They need to be more transparent with their advertising and pictures they use on their web site. I will not recommend this show to anybody.

I wore them to work on the first day I got them and I got blisters on my feet. They are very uncomfortable. 130.00 poof. Will be throwing them out
