I used to be a big Orvis customer. No longer. For years I was a big Orvis customer. I have a closet full of Orvis jackets, shirts, pants. Their prices were higher but the quality was there, I thought. But lately Orvis has deteriorated. I ordered a pair of jeans six weeks ago. They still have not arrived. I ordered some sweatpants a month ago. Still waiting. No ability to track the shipment, and no one to talk to. I am finished with Orvis. I guess they went "woke" instead of focusing on customer service.

Not our problem My question: "Please can you tell me how to care for my Orvis Field Coat? In particular, I would like to improve its water repellence, which has deteriorated over time" Orvis customer service response: "Thank you for your email I am sorry we do not offer a re waxing service for the field coat. We would suggest, even though this is not dry cleanable seeking advice from a professional dry cleaners to see if they can advise further Apologies we are unable to assist you" You judge for yourself how many stars this deserves.

Failed zipper on pants leg I bought a pair of pants for a safari in Tanzania, the kind with a zipper around each leg so you can make them shorts? Just a few wears in, the left leg zipper failed and became unstuck. Required constant manipulation to keep the lower half zipped to the upper half. Plastic zippers!( REI uses metal zippers) These pants cost over &100 and of course once you are out on safari there is no where to return or replace. Boo! (PS photo safari no animals injured or inconvenienced.)

Don’t waste your time! I stopped by the ORVIS flagship in Manchester, VT last fall with my wife and was aghast at the drop in quality and selection, throughout the store. What was once a wonderful source for clothing, house items and outdoor equipment is now a joke. It appears that the new generation of the Perkins family does not know what they are doing and running the iconic brand into the ground. Very sad indeed!

Horrible company with customer service… Horrible company with customer service reps that don't know how to do anything but lie. I ordered over $100 in flies for a trip and over a week later only 1 fly has shipped out of 36. First they say 15% off your first order, then when you check out you don't get 15% off anything except select items. They charge your credit card for each individual item ordered instead of one charge likely to get around higher criminal penalties for fraud/scamming customers. They just need to close down since they are no longer brand that wants to sell items.
