Wool Cruiser Sneaker

So…love the color…super cute! This is maybe my 6th pair? They have always run true to size, this pair ran a little large. I didn’t exchange them because they weren’t available in this color. This is the first time that I’ve been disappointed and I’m not sure I would buy another pair. I don’t like wearing shoes that don’t fit properly.

I had to send these back. I bought my first pair of Allbirds in 2017 and currently have nine pairs. I have been loyal to Allbirds, they are the only shoe I wear. One of the reasons is that I can count on Allbirds to have quality comfortable shoes. I was excited to purchase these yellow shoes. Glad to see some color again as your current color palette looks like boring fifties black and white TV. My shoes arrived with a crushed box. As soon as I opened the box I saw that these shoes had been made with all kinds of cost cutting measures. Starting with the box, not the sturdy box I was used to. And where are the graphics on the inside? The shoes were not the quality I had come to expect from Allbirds. The back tab was just glued on. There was polyester added to the wool, they lacked the comfort of all wool. And there were cheap polyester shoe laces, not the round ones from the past. I have loved my Allbirds. I have raved about them to everyone, creating many new diehard Allbirds fans over the years. It makes me sad that I can no longer recommend them or trust that I will get a quality shoe if I order again.
