Footwear Fulfillment for Growing Brands
Simpl Fulfillment handles shoe and footwear fulfillment with fast shipping and careful handling for DTC and wholesale orders.
Scalable Footwear Fulfillment for eCommerce Brands
Footwear is a high-variant, high-return category. Every style ships in multiple sizes and colors, and each one is its own SKU. We track inventory at the variant level with real-time visibility, so a size 9 in black never gets picked when the order says size 10 in white.
We pick, pack, and ship your orders same-day when they arrive before 12pm CT. Shoes go out in their original boxes inside a right-sized outer mailer, so the box arrives crush-free. The box is part of the product, and customers notice when it shows up dented.
High SKU counts are where footwear brands get stuck. A catalog of 40 styles across 12 sizes and 3 colors is over 1,400 active SKUs. We organize storage and picking around that reality, so accuracy holds as your range grows.
Footwear sees some of the highest return rates in retail, and sizing is the reason. Our returns process inspects each pair, repackages sellable returns to first-quality standard, and restocks them so they are ready to sell again instead of sitting in a return pile.
Selling wholesale too? We handle B2B and retail distribution alongside your D2C orders: pick-and-pack for direct customers, palletized and retailer-compliant shipments for stockists.
Pricing starts at $7/order, which includes the pick, packaging, and postage. The same flat-rate structure applies whether you ship 50 orders a month or 5,000.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you keep size and color variants accurate?
Every size and color is stored and tracked as its own SKU with real-time inventory visibility. Pickers confirm the exact variant against the order, so the customer gets the size 10 in white they actually bought, not a near-miss.
Can you handle a large, high-SKU footwear catalog?
Yes. Footwear catalogs run into the thousands of SKUs once you multiply styles by sizes and colors. We organize storage and picking around high-variant counts, so accuracy and speed hold as your range grows.
How do you handle footwear returns?
Returns are a fact of life in footwear, and sizing drives most of them. We inspect each returned pair, repackage sellable returns to first-quality standard, and restock them so they are ready to sell again. Your branded returns portal is included.
How fast do footwear orders ship?
Orders received before 12pm CT ship the same day. Shoes go out in their original boxes inside a right-sized outer mailer, so they arrive undented.
What does footwear fulfillment cost?
Pricing starts at $7/order, including the pick, packaging, and postage. The same flat-rate structure applies whether you ship 50 orders a month or 5,000.
