I have used Orvis products for years I have used Orvis products for years - but no more. The quality has fallen far below acceptable. A pair of waders that leak this year and then I tried the Hydros Cold Water Intermediate and the loop at the end of the line separated on my second day out. Very poor quality. Additionally, the shipping is awful. $9.95 for a small box - a fly line. One order took 11 days and the next good 12 days. Orvis has lost it.

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.

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.

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.

Horrible 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!
