Cheap material. An XXXL was the UK equivalent of an XL. Looks NOTHING like the pictures. Cheap, made in China, crap!

Disappointing
March 19, 2023

I loved the pictures of the items and decided to place an order. I have concluded that these photos have been copied from elsewhere, and then they try to replicate them. The result is a low-quality product that needs to be returned...and boy do they make it difficult to return your item. I looked everywhere on their site and on the internet for a contact for their customer service. The links, if provided, take you in a circle that leads to Q&A etc. Since I do not have the time for the runaround I decided to bear the loss and unsubscribed (I still get emails from them) but I am going to report them to my email provider so I can stop hearing from these people. We can do better with our money!

SOPHISTICATED SCAMMERS!
March 18, 2023

NOTHING from their website is of the quakity they advertise! ALL ITEMS ARE CHEAP CHINESE S**T
WORST MATERIALS THEY CAN FIND. Mostakes on sewings, unfinished products, all threads hanging out;

These clothes I would not give their crap items to an enemy or a begger to be honest.

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THEIR IMAGINARY CRAP — ALL PICTURES ON WEBSITE ARE EDITED (look closely - clothes are PLACED on models. They can't afford to pay those kind of models to advertise their CRAP ITEMS!

Just save yourself A million neurons AND HASSLE and buy elsewhere!

The orders take a bit of time to process but I find the selection of products and the quality of most of the products is at or exceeds expectations.

Nice blouse
March 17, 2023

Blouse is good quality, but too big, Blouse size is confusing even if you use the measuring chart. I have to send it back but I hope they refund me or give me credit for my purchase.

-There's no 'ubsubscribe' button in emails.
-When I reset my preferences to 'no advertising emails', I still get emails
-Not easy to find email preferences... Under 'account', then search for 'subscription' on that page, then select none for all
-Tried to complain and there's no where to ask them to stop... No contact info at all
-i couldn't even copy the order number
-seems they have made making a complaint against them very hard on purpose
-this company has terrible customer service and isn't good enough for me. I'll be deleting the app once I get me stuff

Gute Produkte und rasche Lieferung
March 16, 2023

Habe gerade meine 4 Bestellungen gemacht. Die Produkte sind wie beschrieben und einige viel besser als erwartet, zum Beispiel Fahrrad-Kleidung und Leggins. Wichtig: bei Kleidung immer die Grössenangaben prüfen, dan klappt es.
