Giving the unparalleled shopping experience offered by online retailers such as Simply Hike, the part of Mary Queen of Shops high street review that looks into tempting shopper back to the High Street by weaning them off shopping online is doom to failure.

Most people this days shop on the High Street and online. In the early days of online shopping High Street provide a superiors shopping experience but other time things are turning the other way. Compare two recent shopping experience this author had; one was online at Simply Hike, the other, a trip to the High Street.

One of the most remarkable things about shopping at Simply Hiking was the user friendliness of the shopping cart system that powers the website. Most retail websites, where you have to choose colours, sizes and other options tends to use radio button and drop down list, neither of this was used on Simply Hiking, all the options you need to choose was in a flat table/grid on the left side of the site, this is quite new to shopping cart design, it makes it easy way to choose product options, making shopping at the site a more pleasant experience. Adding items to cart is equally easy with clear graphics that help you add whatever size or sizes of the product you want to order. Another graphic, icon of a van shows if the item you are interested in is in stock or not. Almost at very stage of your shopping experience Simply Hike ease of use was uppermost on the developers mind, you seem to need far fewer click of the mouse.

The outdoor jacket ordered by the author in the afternoon on the standard delivery option arrived the following morning. Simply Hike also have a delivery option you don’t see on many online shopping site; collect yourself. If you do not live too far from their base in Kent, that could be an option for you. There is a delivery countdown time at Simply Hike that lets you how many hours you have to meed the next day delivery, this is a very useful reminder to let you know when to expect your order.
