pips_pekins Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Has anyone ever ordered from this company? I have been looking for a longer length winter parka for ages. I have ordered one from here and a coat for the dog as well Both were in the sale so I am hoping they will be nice. They do free delivery over £60 too. http://www.landsend.co.uk/ Can't wait for them to arrive. For an additional cost, you can have the dog's name monogrammed onto the coat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westie mum Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 I ordered a couple of dog coats off them a few years ago. They are great coats and wash really well, from what I can remember delivery was really quick too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitchHazel Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 I haven't ordered online from them, but I have bought from them - there is a Lands End outlet in a nearby town. A couple of years ago I bought one of their coats in the sale. It was padded, and warm, and came with a detachable fur lined hood. It has an assortment of lined pockets,minside and out. It has toggley things so I can adjust it to be more or less snug around my waist and more or less snug at the bottom. When I got it, I thought it would be far to big and cumbersome to wear - the sort of coat that you walk a few yards and then find it's too hot. In fact, it's been fantastic, and I wear it whenever its cold. I'd definitely look there again if I needed a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasperaliceuk Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 I probably have the same coat witchhazel has - the Winter Squall. As soon as we get this sort of freezing weather it comes out - superb for dog walking and loads of pockets. Have bought plenty from them, as has hubby. All good quality.

Lavenders_Blue Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 We have the UK HQ and outlet shop near us (4 miles from where I live). Their customer service is fab - you can return any item, at any time, for any reason to them and they will refund with no quibble. Believe it or not, they get returns from parents whose kids have outgrown their clothes - and they refund! That's their policy and they stick to it. So if you order from them and don't like/don't get on with your item then you can just send it back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pips_pekins Posted February 7, 2012 Author Share Posted February 7, 2012 I'd never heard of them until today. After reading your replies I can't wait for delivery. It will be nice to have a warm backside for a change. Why are so many jackets made so short? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackrocksrock Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Their snow trekkers are fantastic - I just bought 2 pairs - reduced of course and the second pair was an extra 20 per cent off weekend couple of weeks ago - no slipping in them at all!. Wonderful to walk the dogs in. I bought 2 fleece jumpers in the sale - I tend to buy stuff in the sale - their stuff is very very good!.

jackie45 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 I use Land's end quite often. Have found price and style good for me. As i am under 5foot I know I can get clothing to fit especially on trousers instead of taking up many inches of wasted cloth. The warm winter jackets are great, brought one before going to US in winter a few years ago and it's still going strong. Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplemaniacs Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 As Lavender_Blue said their HQ and shop is in Rutland, we have bought a few things from there in the past, we have always been impressed with the quality and their service.

sadietoo Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 We have ordered various things from them in the past over many years...their quality is always excellent as is their customer service ..but personally I find the fit a bit odd...but that's probably more to do with my shape than their styling!

cathybc Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Love Lands end - tho I always buy in the sale. Got the squall parka this week, a godsend in this weather. I also like their swimwear with little skirts, helps with the lumps and bumps a bit......they have sent me the wrong stuff twice though- although customer services have sorted well.

pips_pekins Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 Received coats today. Really pleased with mine and stupidly wore it to walk the dog instead of my old tatty one as every dog in the park decided to jump up at me. Covered in mud and goodness knows what else as the park seemed to be covered with dog poop. Thank goodness it is machine washable. I would definitely order from them again. All round good service and my bottom can now be kept warm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_H Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I've bought quite a lot of items from them over the years. Always good quality (as people have said above). One useful facility is that if you phone them they will give you the actual measurements of items eg T-shirt chest size and length in say S,M & L - you can then measure a T-shirt that you already have and like the fit, and then order the appropriate size from Lands End. Or you can order several sizes and return the unwanted ones. H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachelk Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I've had quite a few things from them and have just today ordered a fleece cardigan in the sale. My mum also orders lots from them too. Everything is good quality, and their guarantee is really good. I had a pair of shoes from them with an elasticated toggle, and the elastic snapped some 2 years after having them. They exchanged them staright away, no questions, and I had a lovely new pair. i would really recommend them for long lasting and sensibly cut clothes!
