Even when the website is working it is… Even when the website is working it is not helpful. Many items that they have in the store are not listed on the website.

I bought an Orvis Helo rod last year… I bought an Orvis Helo rod last year and the tip broke in the first 10 minutes of fishing. Now they advertise the new rod is 4x stronger. How about standing behind your product. Obviously a known issue the last rod sucked and I was stuck buying a replacement piece before I caught my first fish. I would go sage anytime now going forward.

False fabric content on Left Bank Coat I bought the Left Bank double knit sweater coat #GE24NT. The catalog says it is Merino/nylon/alpaca/silk/cashmere/spandex. Calling it a lush merino/alpaca blend. When received, the tag inside states that it is 30% wool, 35% viscose, 35% nylon. I spent a considerable amount of time sewing snaps on before I found this, so I don't think I can return it. I only wanted natural fabrics, this is disgusting. I have always loved their quality, but now I don't trust them.

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!

In my opinion.. In my opinion... the absolute worst and most overrated company on the planet in regard to their fishing products. Orvis is truly clinging to their old identity when they were the only player in town. This is the go to for clueless old men who had no other options, wanted to show off for their old friends and online shopping wasn't available. If you need anything fishing related, buy Simms, G Loomis, Scott, and Hardy.
