Good product, good service to remedy issues

Product is great, however in a world of next day and same day shipping, the shipping process is bloated. Ordered on Friday and paid for express shipping and still haven’t received a dispatch notice. When paying nearly £100 for 2 x pairs of socks, I think this is important.

Note - Stox responded quickly and attended to my issue which is now resolved, so updated to 5 stars.

Dear Bob,

Thank you for your feedback, and I sincerely apologise for the delay and the inconvenience caused. We completely understand that, especially when choosing and paying for express shipping, a swift delivery is expected — and in this case, we did not meet that expectation.

Due to unforeseen delays in our warehouse, your order was unfortunately dispatched later than planned. As a gesture of goodwill, we have refunded the cost of express shipping to your original payment method.

We truly appreciate your patience and your support, and we’re working hard to prevent similar issues in the future. Should you have any further questions or need assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at support@stoxenergy.com.

Would rate lower if I could

Would rate lower if I could. Firstly you should state clearly that you can’t order certain items in UK. Try to order but states invalid address. Frustrating.
But not as frustrating as not receiving a refund for a returned faulty item.
Not as frustrating as not even dispatching my replacement order seems system is stuck
Not as frustrating as not replying to customers emails or giving me my money back for two items I don’t have.
Extremely poor customer service, expected more from the brand but seems more interested in taking customers money than anything. Strongly avoid. Unless you can afford to pay for items you never recieve

My original review is below but excellent customer service as my delivery has now been refunded. I will keep the socks for next year as I have heard good things about them.
I paid for speedy delivery but delivery was very slow so they were too late to go on my holiday so I can’t tell you if the product is any good or not

No socks delivered, hard to handle!

I didn't receive the socks because of the delivery company was chosen.
The company (poste Italiane didn't find my office in which I work since 2020 and I receive everyday mail, me and my 35 co workers...)
Now I should reorder everything and I am waiting to have my money back. I think it would be easier if you send me the pack again.

The best compression socks on the market! I seem to get cramp and tight calves when running and have also suffered injury of the calf. Since wearing Stox, I have noticed a huge difference, I can run for longer pain free and enjoy pushing my pace. Yes they are quite pricy for a pair of socks, but take it from me, I tried a cheap pair and learned my lesson. I wear running stox for training and racing and the recovery socks after. They have changed my life!!
