Good amount of stock but postage to UK not great. They do warn that you MIGHT have to pay customs & duty. You definitely do so had to pay another £70+ to receive parcel. I have ordered from another German site & not paid for customs so think this is a bit rubbish but only place that had the trainers so sucked it up!

Thank you for your feedback! We’re sorry to hear that the additional customs and duties came as an unwelcome surprise. We do point out during checkout that customs fees and import duties may apply to deliveries to the UK. The actual amount can vary depending on the order value and other factors. Nevertheless, we understand your frustration and will of course take your feedback on board to be even more transparent in the future. We’re happy to hear that you like our selection!

Not a good experience

Not a good experience. i do not recommend using this website outside Germany. I have never received a refund from them after returning the item. After several e-mail I gave up. They basically said that since it was sent from the Netherlands they cannot do anyhting.

The worst site ever

The worst site ever! ❌
They literally told me that returning my order will cost around €150 in shipping fees! 🤡
Having to pay that kind of money just to make a return is an absolute joke. Avoid them at all costs! 🚨

Waited long for nothing

Waited for more than a week after ordering, without any update from their side. Ended up cancelling the order as it felt like I would never receive the item

Lousy return policy. Bad UX.

Great sortiment, but that doesn't help much when the UX and customer service sucks.

Being a international e-com that doesn't provide return label is pretty lousy in 2026.

I don't mean I want cost free return shipping.
But a large e-com has shipping agreements that their customers can't get close to cost wise.

The normal procedure when purchasing from companies abroad is that they provide a return label, and the cost for the return shipping is deducted form the amount I paid. Usually about 10€.

Now I have to pay about over 25€ which is just ridiculous. It is an easy thing you can help you customers with, that doesn't cost you anything.

The digital return page where I "can easily and conveniently register my return" is no service what so ever for me. It is a service only for Asphaltgolds warehouse receiving the returned goods.

The current solution is just utterly poor customer service and no matter the great assortment of goods I like, I will take my business elsewhere until this is is resolved.

Hi,

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback.

We're sorry to hear that our return process did not meet your expectations. We understand that international returns can be frustrating, especially when return shipping costs are higher than anticipated.

At the moment, we are unfortunately unable to provide prepaid return labels for all international destinations. We understand your point that this is a common service offered by many retailers, and we appreciate you taking the time to explain how this impacts your shopping experience.

Your feedback regarding both the return process and our returns portal is valuable to us and will be shared with the relevant teams as we continuously work to improve our services.

We're pleased that you appreciate our product selection, and we regret that our return policy has left you with a negative overall impression. We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future.

No tracking, no clear support response for 5 days

I placed an order with Asphaltgold on 14 June. As of the morning of 19 June, I still have no tracking number, no confirmation that the parcel has been handed over to DHL, and no proper response from customer support.

I contacted them several times because I need the order before 26 June, as I will leave the delivery address after that date. So far I have only received an automatic reply saying they will answer “as soon as possible”, but no actual information about my order.

Hello,

thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We're sorry to hear that you have been disappointed with the communication regarding your order. We understand how frustrating it is to wait for updates, especially when you have a specific deadline for receiving your parcel.

Our aim is to process orders as quickly as possible and provide clear information throughout the process. Unfortunately, in some cases, delays can occur during periods of high order volume, which may also affect response times from our customer service team.

We sincerely apologize that you did not receive the information you needed in time and regret the inconvenience this has caused. We take your feedback seriously and will continue working on improving our processes and communication.

Order lost by postcompany, but getting in contact with Asphaltgold for help seems impossible and takes ages.

Hello,

thank you for your feedback.

We're sorry to hear that your order was lost during delivery and that you had difficulties reaching our customer service. We understand how frustrating it is when you need assistance with a missing parcel and do not receive a timely response.

In cases where a parcel is lost by the shipping provider, we work together with the carrier to investigate the situation and find a solution as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, these investigations can sometimes take additional time, as we are dependent on the carrier's process.

We apologize that the communication did not meet your expectations and appreciate your patience. We take your feedback seriously and are continuously working to improve our service and response times.

Order

Order: #AG44710096

I placed an order on June 6 for a pair of shoes and socks worth €155.70. More than a week later, my order is still stuck in “Confirmed” status and has not been shipped.

I received an email stating that there are delays due to a high volume of orders, but despite several attempts to contact customer support, I have not received any specific information regarding when my order will actually be shipped. The replies have been generic and have not answered my questions about the status of the order.

What concerns me most is the lack of transparency and the inability to provide even an estimated shipping timeframe after taking payment.

At this stage I am still waiting for my order, but if the situation remains unresolved I will consider seeking assistance from the European Consumer Centre and, if necessary, pursuing payment dispute procedures through my card provider.

I hope Asphaltgold will finally provide a clear update and resolve this matter promptly.

Hello,

thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We're sorry to hear that you are still waiting for your order and that you have not received the specific information you were looking for. We understand how frustrating it is when an order remains in the same status for an extended period, especially after payment has already been completed.

Due to a high volume of orders, there can unfortunately be delays in processing and shipping. We understand, however, that clear communication and transparency are essential, and we regret that our previous responses did not provide the level of information you expected.

We are continuously working on improving our processes and response times to provide our customers with better support. We hope that your order will be resolved as quickly as possible and appreciate your patience.

Price manipulation and deceptive practices !


Extremely disappointed with this store. I placed an order and waited several days, only to be fed excuses about "delays" and being "overwhelmed," before they ultimately cancelled my order. The worst part? Immediately after, the same shoes were back in stock in my size, but at a significantly higher price.

It looks like this is their standard tactic: lure you in with low prices to collect data or push their app, and then just cancel your order.

After reading other reviews, it’s clear I’m not the only one — this is a systemic issue.

Stay away from this shop if you don't want to be used for their marketing schemes.

Maybe it is legit but they ship after ages. Got the tracking number after 8 working days. Still unsure how long should I wait for it to get shipped.

This is terrible and not acceptable. No matter how busy your store is, WTF? Have more workers at least.

update. received the shoes, all good. they kept communicating saying the they are busy etc.. the only bad part is the shipment 8 days which is way to a lot. if you are ready the wait that much the store is good!

I write this positive review because the customer service was excellent: they continuously updated me on the shipment. I have to be honest: the shoes were just as I expected them, spectacular! I will buy from them again, it takes a while to ship but it is understandable and you will definitely not be disappointed. (In my case 5 working days, Germany)

Awful company

Awful company. Would leave zero if I could. Tried to charge me UK VAT when I placed my order. When I asked whether they would declare this, so I wouldn’t be charged it again on delivery, they just cancelled my order!
Scam merchants, avoid!!!

It took some time for the emails for the order to arrive I had to actually write an email to them so they would send me my shipping number etc. Things took some time but I have to say quality is great and good price so can’t really complain.

Excellent sneaker store

I ordered a pair of New Balance sneakers that I couldn't find anywhere else in my country. I got an email saying the order was delayed but I still got it in 4 working days to Sweden... I don't understand all the negative reviews, maybe I got lucky🤷‍♂️. Anyway, everything went smoothly and I'm very happy with the sneakers. 10/10, will shop again at Asphaltgold.

Dont you ever buy from this store…

Dont you ever buy from this store online ever!!!!! worst expierence i have ever had. no answer from anyone, no information no nothing. only lies, and automated emails.
Extremely disappointed with Asphaltgold. It has been 5 working days and my order is still sitting in their warehouse. They generated a tracking number days ago just to create the illusion of shipping, but the parcel has never been handed over to the courier. This is a clear case of misleading commercial practices.
I have already initiated the formal 'Notice of Default' procedure. If the status doesn't change within 48 hours, my next steps are:
1. Filing an official complaint with ECC Germany/Romania for breach of EU consumer law.
2. Opening a dispute on the European ODR platform.
3. Contacting my bank for a chargeback on the grounds of non-delivery.
I wanted the product, but I will not tolerate being lied to with fake tracking updates. Avoid this shop if you expect honesty and timely delivery.

Be prepared, Asphaltgold!

Hello Dexter,

thank you for sharing your experience, even though we’re very sorry to read how frustrated and disappointed you are.

We want to be clear: generating a tracking number does not mean we are trying to mislead anyone. In some cases, a shipping label is created in advance while the parcel is still being prepared for handover. That said, we fully understand how this can feel confusing and give the wrong impression if there are delays afterward.

A processing time of 5 working days can occur during periods of high demand, but we agree that this should be communicated more clearly and transparently. We also take your concerns about communication seriously, you should not feel left without proper updates.

We regret that this situation has led you to take further steps, and we would much prefer to resolve this directly with you. Please reach out to us with your order details, so we can check your order status immediately and provide you with a clear and honest update.


Best regards
