Really everything to do with Customer Service and location, and not the product. Since I’ve been an educator and found that CH honors educators with a much needed discount, I found great value in using it in locations whenever I am in need of shoes as there are none near where I live.
Drove across town today to purchase a product and because it is weekend and not after work, I happened to not have my ID (which has happened countless times before) but knowing the ID is just for a visual check. Never a scan, no numbers taken from it or anything just confirmation you are in fact a current employee to which countless others have counted as verification.) I offered to show them the current campus website with my picture and name on it, as well as a check stub from my most recent paycheck from my email.
Before I could finish the sentence to ask, it was like they were gleefully ready to say no not considering any accommodations just to make a customer happy. The method I was giving for their visual check, was more reliable than seeing a work badge. The whole point is the customer proving that they are a current employee to which I could prove if they cared enough verify.
I understand the protocols, but seriously could’ve easily made a customers experience that much better, but seemingly took great joy in saying no and not even considering another means to verify that would actually be more accurate and acceptable for their required visual confirmation.
The visit was this evening at about 6:15 PM. All that to say. Got a fraction of what I would have gotten, but left highly displeased and very likely will utilize the other more friendly locations...
Read moreBest Shoe Buying experience!
I went to this store back in February 8th, 2023. I went during my lunch break, and was able to make it back to work with time to spare. I went in thinking that there was not anything in the store that I could afford, but decided to look anyway.
The sales person attending me was Reniesha. She greeted me with a friendly smile, and told me that if I need help with anything just to let her know. I looked around for a bit, then went back to the front counter to ask if she had any brown dress shoes in my size. Reniesha showed led me to brown shoes that were exactly my size.
There were mini disposable socks for you to put before trying on a pair of shoes. Maybe it was because I had not been to a department store to buy shoes in a very long time, but I thought this was great. There were also lots of mirrors located throughout the store so you can walk around and see how the pair of shoes fit.
When it was time to checkout, Reniesha convinced me to open an account and save up to 10% on my purchase (on top of what I was already saving!)
This was one of my best shoe buying experiences. I highly recommend this outlet store because of their amenities and...
Read moreVery disappointed in the Cole Hann quality. I have only bought Cole Hann shoes for the longest time. The shoes are generally good quality and comfortable. However, I just purchase a new pair of casual dress shoes and in just a few time of wearing them, the shoe laces are falling apart. I called the store and Cole Hann and they couldn't even direct me when i could purchase a replacement pair. Now I have a brand new pair of shoes with no laces sitting in my closest that i cant wear. Very disappointed in the customer service...
