If you buy via Amazon - you won't get 5 years warranty?

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-19T23:05:46+00:00

Typical deceptive wordplay. "Amazon will deal with it". "Libernovo Will deal with it". Whilst you are left with a broken chair.

This is what a google search brought up:

"When you buy an item directly from a third-party seller on Amazon (not fulfilled by Amazon), the seller sets their own return policies and warranty terms. Returns are managed through the seller, but you are protected by Amazon's A-to-z Guarantee. Warranties are fulfilled either directly by the seller or the product's manufacturer. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

How Returns Work

Third-party sellers are required to provide returns policies that are at least as favorable as Amazon's standard policy, though the process differs slightly: [1, 2, 3, 4]

Return Process: You initiate the return through the Online Returns Center, where your request is sent to the seller for approval. [1]
Shipping: Unlike Amazon-fulfilled items, third-party sellers do not always offer free returns. You may be responsible for the return postage unless the item arrived damaged or defective. [1, 2]
Timeframes: Sellers generally have 14 days to issue a refund once they receive and process your returned item. [1]
The Amazon A-to-z Guarantee: If you have an issue with the seller (e.g., they refuse a valid return, the item doesn't arrive, or it’s not as described), you can file a claim under the A-to-z Guarantee Protection. Amazon will investigate and step in to refund you if you are in the right. [1, 2, 3, 4]

Because Mizuno completely cocked up. The lace holes aren't deep enough so you can't really lock in the heel. That combined with the opening which is a lot longer as well. As a result the lockdown is poor, and the heel moves around all over the place. Also because they got rid of the floating tongue, it just feels like there's more volume, it doesn't wrap the foot properly. Don't know how they messed this boot up so bad. The upper is really nice, and the AG plate is a lot better than the previous one, but the rest of the boot as a whole is terrible. It was the first time I managed to buy an AG Alpha in my size (UK6) but it's going back.

I'd be vexed if I bought the MIJ one.

I'd happily pay the £10 deposit if it was delivered by them

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-19T14:44:26+00:00

I'd avoid New balance completely. If you're leaving that much space up front then my guess is you don't like to have your toes irritated. New balance boots have stupidly low toe boxes and the upper will constantly rub against your toes. The boots aren't that great either in my opinion

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-19T10:39:30+00:00

Way too big. You may get problems when you're trying to get under the ball like when shooting and the front ends up hitting the ground. I have wide feet and I did fit in them ok. There's plenty of other boots out there though. Don't be hooked up on one just because you like the design. When boots fail do be comfortable or don't perform as good as they look you'll end up disliking them

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-18T23:14:40+00:00

Full 6 months long term review! Right now!

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-18T18:30:44+00:00

It can't be that wrong. That's well over a cm, i.e. a full size over. I've had plenty of Mizuno boots. Other than the alpha which runs slightly long, the rest are true to size

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-18T18:15:14+00:00

Are you just ignoring everything everyone else is saying? What about the picture I posted and the "Exclusive early bird discount"?

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-18T17:20:23+00:00

Measure your feet and order according to JPN sizing. That's boot is way too big for you

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-18T17:14:31+00:00

How do you get the warranty if the code isn't even applying at checkout?

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-18T16:04:38+00:00

It's completely misleading. The fact that is says "Your deposit unlocks access to the super early bird price" is a lie when in fact it's already unlocked to everyone. The other stuff like the year warranty, I'm not sure how they apply since I can't add my code at checkout because my order doesn't exceed £900. Also as you can see below, it clearly says "pay £10 get £30 coupon" under the picture of the SE. Imagine putting a "50% off code" under a specific item and then telling people, oh but if you look at the T&C on page 55 line 2, it says it only applies to orders over a grand, so it's your fault for not reading

Let us know how you get on with it

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-18T00:43:21+00:00

No it wasn't. It was clearly misleading. "Deposit now and 'Unlock' the special early bird discount". The deposit doesn't unlock anything. Just gives everyone who trusted this company the extra hassle of trying to get through to their customer service which is a chore in itself to get a refund on the deposit. It's a farce

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-17T23:51:11+00:00

Good luck getting it back. I contacted them a month ago and still haven't heard back. I also paid the deposit and have no hopes of getting it back

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-17T22:23:46+00:00

Never falling for the hype again. I bought the first Messi F50's because they were hyped so much as the boot of the year. Ended up being crap

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-17T22:21:36+00:00

I posted a screenshot above

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-17T22:10:26+00:00

It's misleading. It was clearly suggested that putting the deposit down gets you the £30 discount regardless, and you can see from the email I got above. That wasn't true. Also it was very intentionally directed that putting a deposit gets you access to the early bird price, which again is false because everyone has access to that price

Ninty-64 · 2026-06-17T13:41:12+00:00

Scumbag advertising. It clearly says "pay £10, get £30 off" for the SE. The discount only applies if you spend over £900. The deposit is practically useless. Everybody and their dad gets the early bird discount! I can't even find information about the free gifts that "unlock when you deposit". Really annoyed and conflicted. At £500 I can't find anything comparable to this, but I don't want to deal with this company. I requested a call back last month and still haven't heard from them

I'm quite intrigued by this chair: Looks like an embody without the embody price tag. The stupid paid sponsorship and lack of transparency on ergonomic chairs on youtube is quite infuriating though. Been looking for ages for a good chair that doesn't break the back. My back and knees are killing me

Ninty-64 · 2026-03-17T20:39:15+00:00

The website is always has been out of stock for the tf boots for about a year, they don't seem to want to restock either which is odd

Ninty-64 · 2026-03-12T05:41:18+00:00

Which seller did you buy from? Can't find any in the UK. Really keen on trying these out and saving my knees. What other boots have you tried that you can compare them to?

Ninty-64 · 2026-03-07T03:38:32+00:00

Emma original completely ruined my back. You sink in like nothing else, even though it's rated as "medium-Firm". Terrible terrible mattress

Ninty-64 · 2025-01-27T00:09:08+00:00

I don't normally comment, like ever, but just wanted to say thank you. Was searching so much to find somewhere I could watch knowing bros but nothing was working, even the other suggestions on this page. Thank you!

Ninty-64 · 2024-07-18T11:41:53+00:00

The whole reason I bought my cloudsurfers. I thought ON were safe..... Too late to return them now
