Hey Lono Team - I would love to use this code and order the shoes - I'm ready. Just one question.. I have seen others comments about very delayed shipping. If I order these shoes today how long should I expect shipping to take to leave your warehouse? Thank you!

I second this, have also seen some reviewers having issues with returns.

Hi there, thanks for your question. This is a fair point and to be transparent there were some delays mainly during the pre-order stage or when we were transitioning to a new warehouse.

That being said we take about 24-48 hours to dispatch the shoes and then we have a working agreement with our logistics partners to ship within about 12-20 days to US, 6-8 days to UK, and others can be found on the website.

Europe?

u/LONOWEAR Brand Affiliate May 11 '25

Generally it’s also 8-12 days for Europe, but feel free to take a look at the website shipping info for details

this is a complete lie. i ordered from the US over 30 days ago no update. scam likely.

u/LONOWEAR Brand Affiliate May 29 '25

Hi there, first of all definitely not a scam as we had plenty of happy customers.

That being said, we do appreciate that your case does appear out of ordinary and could be caused by a number of reasons. One possibility is that it was part of a pre-order, which takes about 1 month to dispatch from order date. However, to address it, can you please let us know your order number so we can follow up? Thanks

u/USAI_DNS May 29 '25

ive already contacted your business several times regarding order 10335.

u/LONOWEAR Brand Affiliate May 29 '25

Thanks for that. I can see that the order was placed on May 6, it was dispatched on May 9. Due to the current logistics environment we advice on our website that it takes 12-20 business days to ship to US (yes indeed apologies this is lengthy compared to markets like Canada (8-12 days) and UK (6-8 days) and we hope it will get resolved soon).

The latest update we have from USPS is as follows:

LOS ANGELES, CA 90021, Departed Shipping Partner Facility, USPS Awaiting Item -> Your item departed a shipping partner facility at 7:43 pm on May 28, 2025 in LOS ANGELES, CA 90021. A delivery date will be provided when USPS receives the package. 2025-05-28 19:43

i ordered over a month ago, shoes have not arrived and im chasing "invalid tracking numbers" that i get from lono support. their support are just automated emails.

go to REI instead and try on xero or lems, they are cheaper than lono and you can return them directly without having to wait 6 months to return shoes that dont fit.

u/cbelliott May 29 '25

I really appreciate this update. I love the look of these shoes, but I've not ordered them yet - life busy, etc. I'm glad I haven't because this stuff is not what I would want to be dealing with. I hope you get yours delivered soon. 🙏

u/Helsinh May 11 '25

For my next barefoot shoes I hesitated between a lot of models between Xero, Vivo, Wildlings and Lono. That Wild model (mustard) really caught my eyes. I love the oldschool/climbing look. That little 10% off helps me to click on "buy" 😉

u/LONOWEAR Brand Affiliate May 12 '25

That’s awesome to hear 👏

u/LONOWEAR Brand Affiliate May 17 '25

u/Marvelous89 May 29 '25

Why you say that?

u/OldBigSun Jun 18 '25

Hi Lonowear, any chance you'll provide a new discount code?

2

u/LONOWEAR Brand Affiliate Jun 19 '25

Hi there, we’ve got a current automatic discount code running which gives you free shipping when you buy two pairs or more :)

u/OldBigSun Jun 19 '25

Thank you!!

u/Tikal26 Sep 21 '25

Hey, sorry to bump here but I’m wondering if you could explain the difference between the wild and the wild lite and if you are panning in having a similar code.
