Quality Hound
GBDon’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!

GBI agree I agree. I once considered it an upscale brand but their marketing turned me off. I received a catalogue a few years ago and every model had a tattoo. I’m not judging anyone with a tattoo but no one in my family, including my children, have one. We are a conservative , educated upper middle class family that shops for quality and support companies that share our values. Too bad, it was once Iconic but is making its move to the masses, poor quality and a woke mentality.

GBI 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.

GBFailed 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.)

GBHorrible customer service Horrible customer service! Purchased 5 shirts that I ended up sending back because they weren't what I thought they were. Used their supplied return label and tracking number. They say they never received them and that I'm sol because they don't keep track of their return tracking numbers! I'm disputing this thru my CC company!
