Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 175 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the exceptional customer service, highlighting the team's responsiveness, helpfulness, and friendly approach in resolving issues quickly and efficiently. Many people appreciate the high quality and durability of the products, noting that items are well-made and designed to last, often suitable for various weather conditions. Reviewers also commend the staff in both stores and customer service for their kindness, knowledge, and professionalism, making interactions pleasant and supportive. However, some customers experienced issues with product quality, such as jackets not lasting as expected or jumpers having poor fit and shrinking after washing.

Great customer service

Excellent customer service (from Milan) who supported me with personalised and detailed guidance regarding sizes and models. I was ordering from the other side of the world and so didn’t want to be dealing with returning items because they didn’t fit. Product is great - Long Jane wetsuit perfect for diving in tropical waters.

Customer Service Team

Great support from the Customer Service Team when I needed to return and reorder an item I had purchased with a discount code. They dealt with my queries promptly and clearly explained how to proceed. Thanks!

Excellent customer service

Excellent service from Finisterre. After my waterproof jacket unfortunately perished inside after 2 years of use, I got in touch asking about their repair service. Whilst ideally I’d have liked the item repaired, they instead offered me a new replacement in my choice of colour. As a customer I felt valued - so top marks to Finisterre.

Exceptional

I have always rated Finisterre as a brand, and this experience reinforced why. I had an issue with sizing consistency on a Barents jumper, where two jumpers of the same model and size fitted noticeably differently. I raised it with customer services, provided photos, and the team dealt with it promptly, professionally, and without fuss.

They acknowledged the issue, arranged a free return using a simple Royal Mail QR code, and immediately organised a replacement in the correct size. Communication was clear throughout, and the tone was genuinely customer-focused rather than defensive.

Issues can happen with any clothing brand, but how they are handled matters. Finisterre handled this properly, quickly, and fairly. It is exactly the sort of service that builds long-term trust, and I will happily continue buying from them.

Amazing service to fix broken zip puller

My zip puller broke on my raincoat and I contacted customer service. They quickly offered me three options, one of which was a free repair.

I popped into the London store on Neal St and the the most wonderful Ruth fixed it there an then. It took less than 5 minutes.

I'm so grateful for the rapid and simple way Finisterre has handled this. Amazing service.

I purchased a waterproof jacket a…

I purchased a waterproof jacket a couple of years ago from the Exeter branch. It was on offer, so from 150 pounds, it costed 75.

Prior to that, i had a North Face which had served me well for four years and was using it every day.

The Finisterre jacket lasted two years only. One of the buttons came off and yesterday, when trying to pull the band, on the bottom of the jacket, it just got torn hahaha.

Unbelievably low quality jacket. I am looking for a new one, but will definitely not be Finisterre.

Terrible customer service, premium price

Placed an order and after more than a week it wasn't dispatched. Emailed to ask for an update and was told it was out of stock and "sorry about that". Another week later and still no refund so I'm having to chase them up again.

Confusing info about issuing refunds

Edit: I did receive a full refund before the ten days. Not sure whether the message I’d received was a mistake?
However, the sizing was off and the jumper was somewhat disappointing, for the price.
The customer service on the phone before I returned the jumper was good and helpful.

Original review: I bought a jumper online using their sizing guide. It came up far too big and I returned it. Several days later I received notification that my return had been accepted and that it would take up to TEN BUSINESS DAYS to receive a refund - that might not be as much as the price I paid. I have no idea why it takes this long and would be reluctant to buy online from Finisterre again because of this. The jumper itself wasn’t great :(. Very scratchy and not worth £120, sadly.

Customer services listened

Customer services listened to my concerns and, despite having worn the jacket a few times, accepted that there was a fault with the zip so effectively refunded me and enabled me to pay the difference to purchase a new more expensive waterproof jacket. My only concern is that I hope they identify the fault when reselling it through Reskinned, for which I also received a discount. :-)

Great customer service

Great customer service. Contacted finisterre about an item out of stock online, and they quickly found a store that had it in stock and gave me the contact details to be able to contact them. Christmas present sorted!
