Good Quality
I’ve bought Trutex school shirts for years now. Delivery was quick, as always. The shirts are good quality, and aren’t as see through as other brands. They wash really well and are non iron too.

Hi Samantha
We’ve looked into your order and can confirm it was placed on 6th August, dispatched on the 7th, and delivered by DPD on the 11th — within the expected timeframe for Northern Ireland, including the weekend. Regarding the colour, we’re sorry it didn’t meet your expectations. Colour perception can vary slightly depending on screen settings, but we’ll review the listing to ensure it’s as clear as possible.
We’ve also checked our records and haven’t received any emails or live chats from you. If you’re still looking to return your order, please contact our customer service team at td@trutex.com, and we’ll be happy to help.
Kind regards

Excellent customer service
I made a mistake as to size when ordering. I messaged asking to cancel and replace by another size. All done, swiftly and pleasantly.
Trousers delivered promptly.
Fantastic quality.

Easy to use the website
Easy to use the website, very quick delivery and easy returns process for the items I didn’t require. Girls’ trousers fit beautifully and are well made, sizing was spot on. I won’t shop anywhere else for uniform from now on.

Not a great experience with returns
Doesn’t give lengths of skirts. I have applied to return an item & was told they would send a returns label via email. Still waiting 3 days later. Closest return shop is 20 miles away

Hi Julie
We do include skirt lengths on our product listings; this is detailed on the Size Guide link attached to all products listed per item online.
Regarding your return, we have indeed sent the returns label - please give this a day or so to arrive and in the meantime we will investigate the delay. You can also generate your own returns label at the store without waiting for one in the mail. To request a returns label or QR code to generate a label at a DPD drop off shop, login to https://trutex.gfs-returns.com. You will need your order number (starting 1000...) and postcode. Alternatively you can wait for the returns label to arrive.
We appreciate your comment about the distance to the nearest drop-off point and we are actively working with our partners to improve accessibility for all our customers.
If you would like to contact Customer Services regarding an exchange or refund please email td@trutex.com and we will be happy to help.
If you haven't received the returns label in the next day or so please let us know and we will send a replacement.
Kind regards

Hi Alison
Thank you for your feedback. We're really sorry to hear that the shirts didn’t meet your expectations. We aim to provide high-quality garments, and it's disappointing to learn that the product felt thinner than anticipated.
The term "superior quality" on our website refers to the craftsmanship and durability of the fabric, but we understand that expectations around thickness and opacity can vary. Your comments are valuable and will help us improve how we describe our products more clearly.
If you'd like to discuss this further or explore a return or exchange, please don’t hesitate to contact our customer service team at td@trutex.com
Kind regards

First time buying from Trutex and I wasn't too disappointed
Delivery was fast, reliable, and packaged so well in a brown recyclable parcel bag. Very eco friendly. Collected from my local Postoffice
However, while their trouser length is accurate, the waist & hip sizing is way off - my daughter's UK trouser size is 34Waist so I ordered size 34 trousers for her from Trutex. What arrived was a trouser 2 sizes bigger in the hip and waist area.
I returned that order (a very straightforward process) and, at the same time, ordered a size 30 and 32. The size 30 fit perfectly while the 32 was slightly loose. So now I know her trouser size in Trutex but I had to order two sizes smaller to get here because the size guide on the website is so inaccurate.

Hi Nkechi
Thank you so much for your detailed feedback! We're really pleased to hear that your first experience with Trutex was mostly positive — especially that delivery was fast, reliable, and eco-friendly. We’re sorry to hear about the sizing issue with the trousers and appreciate you taking the time to explain your experience.
It’s great that you found the returns process straightforward and were able to find the right fit in the end.
We do understand sizing, particularly for uniform, can be tricky. We’ve created a series of videos and help by product type and whilst we appreciate it may be a little late for this order if you need to order again we would recommend visiting the “Size Guide” area on our website to help - https://www.trutex.com/tips-and-tricks/size-guides.html

My son doesn't like the feel of his trousers, although I think he looks smart in them. We shall see how they last.

Great uniform
Free delivery when you spend over a certain amount and it's free next day delivery. Quality of shirts brilliant. Long lasting and great fit.
Yes it's more expensive but the quality will last a whole school year. Second year ordering these.
