Online shopping experience and product quality

Stanleyjat

Taking a few minutes to research before buying can save a lot of money and frustration. I recently tried a few different online shops and wanted to share my experience. In the end there is no perfect shop, but some stores are clearly more consistent. Of course we all have different taste, but patterns still appear in long discussions. Smaller shops can be surprisingly friendly if they care about repeat customers.  

If anyone is interested in real user experiences, I sometimes write short notes about the shops I test.

Comfort around the heel and toes is more important than super fancy design. Sharing real world usage stories is often more helpful than any advertisement. For light summer tops I keep to my normal size to avoid a baggy look. Even a short note like 鈥渢his size runs smaller than expected鈥?can help someone. I also pay attention to return policy and customer service response time. I am still learning and testing different brands and styles over time. Forums, blogs and communities create a kind of collective memory for shoppers. Each material has advantages and disadvantages depending on season and activity.  

Hope this helps someone.
