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.

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!

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.

Very Tough Animal Squeaky Toys I purchased the Trout and Frog Animal Squeaky Toys for my two small dogs (mini size). I also have two large and one medium-sized Australian Shepherds that love to tear the stuffing and the squeaker out as soon as they get a new toy. Well, these toys can co-exist with all five dogs! They have yet to pull out the stuffing or the squeaker and I've had them for 10 days now. It's a new household favourite and I will definitely be purchasing more from Orvis.

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.
