The order and original delivery was absolutely great and lightening fast, no problems with the item, all great, but the length of time waiting for the exchange was too long for my liking. Great comms... See more

Took order but goods not in stock
Ordered trail running shoes via Debenhams but fulfilled by Sport It First. Took the order and money but Sport It First didn’t actually have the item in stock. Not sure why in this day and age of online shopping that stock control should be an issue.
Disappointed
Ordered through Debenhams - couldn't fulfil order - with no notice cancelled order several days later.
Highly recommend, will buy here again
Absolutely great experience. My first time buying from Sport it First and truly couldn't recommend them enough, I'll definitely be purchasing from here again. I ordered on 22nd Jan, my trainers got sent the same day and arrived the 23rd Jan. They were also the lowest price online, no negatives whatsoever.
Always brilliant service
Always brilliant service, prices are amazing and the rare time anything goes wrong they sort it immediately
Cancelled
bought through secret sales at a great discount. Cute little boots for my grand daughters. 2 days later they cancelled the order and refunded. Not because they had a stock issue but because they had decided to increase the price. Disappointingly Secret Sales did not do anything about it either.
Excellent experience
Excellent experience - unbeatable price and fast delivery.
One of the best online shops I've used recently
As always when ordering from a company for the first time, I checked Trustpilot- and there were some reviews that were a bit worrying-nonetheless, they offered Paypal and the stuff I wanted was not in stock anywhere else. Ordered, pretty much showed up the next day, perfect condition, precisely as described, well-packaged. One of the best online shops I've used recently- I'd happily use them again.
Absolutely appalling customer service…
Absolutely appalling customer service from start to finish. Sent me the incorrect item twice with colour and the second pair looked worn not new condition as described. There is no or a lack of response from customer services. Therefore I would avoid at all cost.
Good service and delivery as stated.
Made 2 orders now, some work trousers by Dickies, which you can’t seem to get anywhere. Sizes were limited but luckily had my size.
Both orders (separated by 1 month), arrived on time and were as expected.
I can’t fault them.
Thank you.
Quality item
Quality item, now hard to find, at a good price was delivered quickly in the busiest time of the year. One small delay but I was notified.
I ordered trainers through decathlon…
I ordered trainers through decathlon for a Christmas present, they arrived Christmas eve and after inspecting I realised the wrong size had been sent. After a very frustrating exchange, the new pair sent were also the incorrect size!
Ordered a pair of running shoes on 6/12…
Ordered a pair of running shoes on 2/12 for my girlfriend. Heard nothing except the “order is on its way” email for the next 2 weeks. Contacted Sport It First, they said my order was “lost in transit”. So, a waste of time in the end and short a Christmas present. Useless company.

I have had an excellent purchasing experience and very satisfied with the service and shipping.

Excellent super fast service with brilliant communication🤩, keep up the good work!!
Sadly, avoid ordering from here
I've attempted to order something from Sport It First now twice, and they've sent me the wrong size both times. I don't think their website has accurate stock information and they just 'make it up' when they send something. Sounds like a strange business model but emailing to say something is out of stock instead of sending the wrong sizes saves time not only for the person ordering but also the company. I tried phoning and emailing, but they don't pick up the phone and emails have gone unanswered.
Poor service.
Item arrived extremely late however kept it due to necessity otherwise it would have gone back. The item itself was very nice but sadly it had a defect which showed up within a small amount of use therefore tried to open up a communication with the seller.
Did everything the seller requested including pictures and a description then had to wait a number of days for a response, the response was not worth the wait.
A very poorly constructed message in which the seller ignored all the information given to them and instead made a decision based off personal preference?
To completely miss the point of the dialogue and come to a very strange conclusion has me thinking this company has no idea what they are doing.
Complaint raised and i definitely wouldn't recommend this company based on the service received as a whole. (Poor delivery, poor item, poor aftercare service). Thanks
Scammers
1 star as no option to leave zero stars.
Ordered online through boohoo. Received used item with no box or tags.
Emailed asking for return details. 2 weeks later no reply. Emailed again, was eventually sent details a week later and returned straight away. 3 months later, still no refund.
New Puma Runners
Bought some Puma running shoes, never heard of the company before but the price was good so I bought them, no problems, fast delivery, good company
I am very pleased .
