Again I went home wearing thee shoe, to found theat thee sticking is not proper & thee inner sole is coming out. So on 18the Dec. 11 I again deposited thee shoe back to aero club. Till date have neitheer received thee replacement nor a single call from thee supplier regarding thee status of thee faulty shoe.

Sir, I had purchased Woodland Shoes from M/s AEROCLUB WOODLAND STORE , LT Road, Borivali West, Mumbai - 92. of Rs.2795.00 on 22/10/2011, and with in one month inside leather part is damaged, I had lodge complaint with Borivali Showroom from where I had purchased. and I had given Shoes for Replace on 03/12/2011. but He has told me that Replacement is not possible, Repair work will be done and for that we have to sent at Delhi Offiice. and He has given Promise that, You will get Shoes after repair with in 15 days. But till date I have not recd the same from him. I had sent So many mail and personally visited to Borivali West Branch. Till date I have not recd my shoes from him. I can say After sales service of WOODLAND is very Poor. They have no Courtesy to give reply by phone or by Mail.

I had purchased a pair of Woodland shoes with leather laces from one of the showrooms at Trimulgherry. But in a few weeks the laces were torn and when I went back to the shop for a replacement they said they can't do it. Si I told them I was willing to buy new laces. But they said they don't have any. If they didn't have the laces why did they sell the shoes to me? I enquired in other Woodlands outlets and I was told that those particular shoes were not being manufactured anymore. If that was the case then why didn't they tell me about it. I asked them if they sell laces seperately and they said yes. If I had known that they were simply trying to get rid of the shoes then I would never have bought them.

I would really appreciate if someone helps me with this. I am willing to pay for the laces.

Dear Sir/Mam,

Hello and good day. I introduce myself as a customer of the products of your organization. I had purchased a pair of footwear from your Colaba branch on September 10, 2011 (Bill No.: 4524) at 25% discount. I was given a guarantee card for a minimum time of 90 days from the date of purchase.

However the footwear had completely worn off within 45 days. The pasting had opened and leather had started peeling. I took this footwear at the Thane branch on October 24, 2011 and enquired if they could address the issue. They kindly agreed to follow up and did the needful. I went to collect my footwear yesterday evening. I was asked to take a replacement to which I agreed. I picked up the same pattern as the earlier one since that was the only one which I had liked and there was either way not much choice.

However, the personnel at the shop asked me to pay Rs. 300/- saying that this is extra cost of the footwear over what I had paid. I tried reasoning with them to either return the money or give me an identical footwear in exchange of the faulty one that I had been sold. They did not agree to this request on the grounds that it is against their rules.

I now seek your intervention with the following queries: I purchased the footwear for a certain price which I thought was reasonable after the discount. Why am I being penalised for a faulty product for no fault of mine? If the cost at the time of purchase would have been the current price, I may not have opted for it. This is like taking customers for a ride!

Yours is a reputed organization and I do not expect this kind of behaviour and attitude from your staff. Please intervene in this matter at the earliest convenience and do the needful.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanking you and with sincere regards,

The very next day I returned the same to the shopkeeper, he lodged a complaint about that and within two three days he asked me to come to his shop. When I went there he asked me to pick another shoe of my choice, but unfortunately there was not a single shoe which was of my size. then he said you pick up something else such as trousers, jacket, slippers etc. which was of no use to me. I wanted a shoe only. He then said that within ten days new stocks will be coming you can pick up from it. Till date the new stocks have not come. Now neither he is returning my cash nor giving me a shoe.

Discount Rs. 1000/-

I am 89 years old. I purchased a shoe Article G-4041 BK-41 woodland CS-023A,DLF City Center Phase II Gurgaon Haryana. The sole of brand new shoe crumbled completely. I returned the shoe in September 2010. But no action was taken for a year. After much follow-up the company stated that sole of the shoe was not available and nothing could be done. I requested for a replacement / refund but no action was taken. In March 2011 the showroom insisted that i should pay a sum of Rs 600/- for replacement of the sole. I was reluctant and did not understand why I should pay for a defective sole. I was forced to pay as the company was not willing to do anything about it. After some time they called me to take the repaired shoe. To my shock I discovered that they had affixed a light grey sole on a black suede shoe. I refused to accept. A month later they called me again and w/o any authorization from they pulled out the wrong color and shabbily affixed yet another sole.
The shoe is unfit for use, the inner has become tight as the sole has been pulled out three times. However the company/ showroom refuse to refund the amount charged or replace the defective product.
I have consistently sought a replacement / refund as neither shoe was of good quality or service done in an appropriate manner.

Hi,
I have purchase Woodland shoes on date[protected] Bill no. 8618) from Agro Club Woodland Store. Salli road, Opp - Patel Chonk -Pathanko.But this shoes damage with lather defect. I do complante on this store and my complaint no is 217/PTK.
Today I do telephonic discuss store manager, But he says that you can receive 60% amount of this shoes. But this is company miniature mistake. I have no need of this amount. Please send to me my old shoes. After this I will take my own step.

Dear Recipient,

I have been a regular user of Woodland shoes for last 7-8 years. But never had have such issues related to quality.

In August 2011, I bought a new pair of Woodland shoes with the following details:
MRP - 2595/-
Colour - Khaki
Manufacturing date - April 2011
Article No. - G23777N
Purchased from: Shop No 13 & 35, Upper GR FLR, Wing B Jewel Of Pimpri Complex, Opp. PCMC Bldg, Pimpri, Pune - 411018.

The shoes have been worn for a total ten times in moderate temperature conditions and for regular usage. But surprisingly the sole has started coming off in the front and the back side of both the shoe (Ref. the photos attached). Due to some official engagements I could not approach the dealer and mend it at personal expense which lasted for few more days, now again It has started loosing the adhesive.

It is a really disgusting case for the brand name and the hefty amount charged for the quality Woodland is providing to its customers.
I do not have a copy of the invoice with me as after purchase I did not feel it necessary to keep the bill safely for any future use and especially like the one here. In future if I ever happen to buy any woodland product, I would definitely make sure to retain the bill in case I again come across such problem.

But at least after such a lot of problem, harassment and dissatisfaction, I request you to kindly look into the matter and have it sorted at the earliest possible.

An early and favourable response is highly solicited.

Regards,

Sumeet Pattnaik

When I visited Chennai in the month of September 2011, I bought an Woodland sandal No.GS 4016 KHAKI 42 footwear from Woodland store (M/s AERO CLUB - Madley Road, T Nagar, Chennai 17) vide bill No.3664 dated 11th September 2011. The MRP was Rs.2,195/- and the price paid by me after discount was Rs.1,535/-. After wear for just only one-and-a-half month, the sole of both the sandals came off. I am a regular customer of Woodland Products and my belief till date was that the product manufactured by that multinational company is of high quality. But after using this particular product my belief was belied.

Now, my request is that either make arrangements to replace the defective sandal with a new one or refund the money at Thiruvananthapuram.

Looking forward for your reply, thanking you.

I have purchased a pair of shoes from woodland outlet M/s. ARROW CLUB , Shop no. 15.& 16 Gr. Floor, Plot No. 69, Sector 15 , C.B.D.Belapur, Navi Mumbai phone no.[protected] against Bill No.: 173 dated 1-Sept-2011 , Article No. 0160106 for Rs. 2395/- I am a regular user of Woodland shoes from the past 5 years. But the pair purchased against the Bill nos 173 has manufacturing defects which are now noticeable.The shoes are now opening up from the front. Shoes are not exposed to any rough & tear . On complaining to the said outlet, they did not agree for replacement but for repairing to pasting & stiching of the sole. But now they claim , that they will just paste the sole and the shop manager was very rude while attending the complaint to the extent that he asked me to leave the shoes & drive my car back home without wearing shoes. I have asked them for total new replacement of the shoes.

The company spending so much of money in daily advertisments instead of training their staff to attend customer complaints & customer satisfaction. All shoes are heavily priced almost 200% to 300% more as compared to other brands who offer a much better after sales service.

Dear Sir, Madam,

I purchased one pair Woodland shoe (i.e. below detailed) from Aero Club - Woodland Store, Indira Nagar, Bangalore-560008. The cost was INR 2795.00. I have used it for around 10 times in a span of just 3-4 weeks (as I wear casual shoes on Friday and Weekends only). The Right-side shoe got two Cracks on its toe and approached the Aero Club outlet immediately regarding this issue. This is my 3rd Shoe and first time ever, I am getting this type of issue.

The Outlet people gave me the Repair Slip (No. #105; Dated: 20/Aug/2011) and now denying on Replacement saying misusing of shoes which is Not Acceptable at-all. It is around Two months to complete and I have given numerous phone calls asking on Status of my request but still they are saying “Our Manager will call you on Your Mobile and let you know what the possible things can be done.” Yesterday - 9/Oct/2011, I called to the Aero Club Outlet but same answer I got from the executive sitting in counter.

This mail will explain itself

Dear Mr Nagar,

With profound grief I am writing this mail to you after regularly visiting your Gaurav Tower Woodland store.

If possible kindly go through this trial mail & do suggest me the solution as it has been more than a year waiting for same.
Neither your customer care deptt. pick up the no to register the complaint or they revert back in written as you can see I have marked a copy to them but all this effort of mine is in vain.

In todays scenario where customer's vows are listen with utmost curosity Woodland is sleeping over kindly wake up.


Thx & Rgds

Dear All,

This is to inform you all that I am a regular buyer of woodland products since its launch.

I baought one jacket (jc) from chandigarh store sector 17.

The cost of that jacket is approx 3' plus. That jacket has some fabric issue all the suede stuff is coming out. No wash or dry cleaning has been done from my end.

I gave this jacket for replacement at woodland store Gaurav Tower Jaipur. Mr Jatin store Incharge has been kind enough to guide me.

As per him the jacket was sent for quality check @ Gurgaon but they dispatched same back to ur woodland store (GT).

This whole episode took around two months.

Than I tried calling customer care number given by Jatin since yesterday I made so many calls @ number given to me but no body is taking the call.

I tried doing same in front of Jatin aslo but no support has been rendered to me so far.

This speaks of commitment level @ Woodland for their customers.

Well I would request you to take same on priority.

i am buy woodland shoe from here in rajkot but they give me wrong size now i want to change but shopkeer don't change it back me i mail to woodland custmercare they said me put shoe in shop it will be repair but my shoe back as it as.......
please reply me what i do...?
i want clam in consumer court but how to do don't know nathing.

I purchased a pair of Woodland shoes, model no- GC 0572108 BRO 41 vide bill no- 9910 dated 13.02.2011 from M/s Earthline Apparels Pvt LTD, Woodland Stores, Sector -30A, Shop No G-21 , Inorbit Mall, Vashi, Navi Mumbai. Soon after i started to use the shoes, severe pain in my left foot started. Primarily i thought it may be due to the new shoe pinch but the pain aggrevated and i had to consult Doctors who pointed out that the pain is only due to the new shoe and the shoe is pressinh hard at a particular point in foot. Blood test and X-Ray was done which justified the diagnosis. I had to go through medication for 3 months to walk properly.

I lodged the complaint with the Dealer on 10.07.2011 through their reference no CF22 and also mailed in this respect to the Company on their customer care email address. Through my complaint i asked for refund of my money along with the compensation for medication.
Till date i have not received any formal reply from either the Company or the dealer.

Hi,

I had bought a woodland shoes last year in August 2010 from your exclusive showroom at City mall gorakhpur-273001, within a year the leather colour is badly faded at some places.

i reached to your exclusive showroom at gorakhpur to register my complaint but it was one of my bad experience that i ever faced at such branded shop , the person at cash counter started shouting on me & misbehaved when i tried to tell them about that complaint. He also told me that you have no sense to take care of leather shoes.

It is my third shoe of woodland brand , i also bought one shoe for my brother but i didnt get any complaint .
Kindly look into the same.
