How long does shipping sneakers from Turkey to the UAE take?

By air, about 3 to 5 days and up to a week, after the parcel reaches the warehouse and is prepared.

Can I ship sneakers I bought myself in Turkey?

Yes, enter the receiving-centre address with your box number at checkout, and we combine the orders and ship them to your address.

Should I remove the shoe box to cut shipping?

Removing it cuts volume and cost, but keep it if the pair is a gift or for resale.

Shipping Sneakers from Turkey to The UAE: Cost and Time

There are two ways to ship sneakers from Turkey to the UAE: buy them yourself and send them to your Turkish address with your box number, or send the links and we buy them for you with Buy for Me for an 8% commission on the product value. The parcel flies from Istanbul, and transit is about 3 to 5 days and can reach a week once the shipment leaves. Turkish brands are often cheaper in Turkey than the same items in stores in the UAE, especially during sales, so compare the total with commission and shipping before ordering.

Two ways to ship sneakers to the UAE

If you buy sneakers yourself from a store that delivers inside Turkey, enter the receiving-centre address with your name and box number, and the order is logged to your account. If the store rejects your card or asks for a Turkish phone, send the links with Buy for Me. Parcels stay free at the warehouse for up to 30 days so you can combine orders.

Transit time and mode

The parcel flies from Istanbul, and transit is about 3 to 5 days and can reach a week once the shipment leaves, after the store’s own delivery inside Turkey to the warehouse. Once it arrives, the parcel is delivered in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman and other cities, and you follow each step from your account.

How the price is worked out

Shipping is charged on the greater of actual and dimensional weight after packing, so you estimate it first in the shipping calculator and the figure is fixed after weighing at the warehouse, before dispatch. Sneakers are usually charged on box volume rather than weight, since boxes add a lot of parcel volume; decide whether to keep the original box or have it removed to cut volume, and combine several pairs in one parcel.

Size and authenticity

Turkish stores use EU sizes, which vary slightly between brands, so measure your foot length in centimetres and compare it with the brand chart. Buy from official, well-known stores to ensure authenticity, and ask for size and pair to be checked on arrival before closing. Charges may apply in the UAE by value and quantity, and commercial quantities need a separate quote.
