  • Rockport boots are very light anyway. Being from littlewoods, the no box is a but suprising.
    Waddle you do eh?

    a major retailer like littlewoods is not going to deliberately sell fake items.I have bought shoes before from littlewoods and empire and they always come in a box that has the resellers logo,not the original pod and ellesse items i bought.Unless they are obviously poor quality (which i would very much boubt) then don't worry

    i think i might have jumped the gun a bit you see i was comparing them to adult ones but i had my doubts because of who i was buying from i thought "they wouldn dare would they"....... i have decided to keep them and if they fall to bits i will then do something about it thanks guys

    littlewoods surely wouldnt risk it by selling fakes they are a major company. id be very very surprised. keep the reciept and box and any other info such as when you ordered, when it was delivered etc so you have all the ammo if they made out you were tellin porkies. i wouldnt worry even if they were fakes with all the info you have kept about the order you could just demand a refund and a trading standards visit lol!-no seriously, i doubt it very much though.
