While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

From the very beginning the experience was poor. Long delivery times, missing items, lack of customer service. One of my items arrived without new tags (which I raised immediately the day it was received and sent photos to vendor) and was very poor quality. I informed them immediately and was told I could not request a refund until all my items arrived. After they finally did nearly 3 weeks later I returned all items to the vendor. They refunded 2 of the 3 items, keeping the product and my money for one of the items (the jacket they claim I removed the tags from). I tried to contact them for weeks with no response. Finally, after I left a bad review on their site, they contacted me, advised I would not be receiving the refund and threatened legal action for my bad review. I believe the company is publishing fake reviews and providing misleading information. The vendor has now prevented customers from leaving reviews on their site protecting their 5 star ratings. If you write a review, it says that is has been published but this is not true and it just disappears. They have also closed their social media sites to avoid negative reviews. The company also appears to be using AI generated photos to sell their items. ** Since posting my original review the company again contacted me threatening legal action and said that if I took my review down, they would consider refunding the money for the jacket**
