Usual good service

As usual swift delivery. Whilst there was a glitch in the order (paper map delivered rather than Active map) the issue was dealt with in an efficient and friendly way by Drew. Quickly resolved.

The dress does not look anything I ordered, in fact it’s like a large blue overall. Not happy with it.

Many thanks for your review. I'm very sorry to hear you received an item that is not to your expectation. I've had a look at your order, and it looks like you ordered a very thick and warm, men's waterproof down jacket. I'm not sure if you've possibly mixed up your review with a different retailer, or if you were actually expecting a dress. I can't see any correspondence from yourselves, so please get in touch with us at sales@outside.co.uk if you genuinely have left the review for us.

Glad to hear you enjoyed shopping and eating with us. We will remain a brick and mortar store above anything else for this exact reason. See you again soon we hope.

Brilliant service.

Brilliant service.
I spent ages ringing shops and searching the internet to find who had the boots I wanted in the size and fit I wanted.
I drew a blank, shops either didn’t know what stock they had or didn’t have the boots.
A phone call to Outside and the guy immediately checked the physical stock, confirmed they had it and put the item by until the mail order department opened.
All ordered and arrived in 48 hours.
Top staff, top service. They have my trade in future.
