Written by the company
Founded in 2017 in Manchester, England. Outsiders Store is the antidote and alternative to a very prescribed outdoor industry. The very name Outsiders was chosen for being something of a homonym, we’re happily leftfield and don’t mind diverting from the trodden path. We sell functional and versatile goods designed to stand the test of time.

I ordered the Mens Northface Gilet yesterday and received it today.
Delivery was fast.
Delighted with my purchase.
False Advertising and Poor Customer Service
The hat I ordered was a different colour than advertised online. Despite returning the item for a refund, Outsiders Store took it upon themselves to process an exchange. The next hat I received was the exact same as the one I already returned.
Returns a nightmare!
I ordered a Patagonia fleece. When it arrived I tried it on and it didn’t fit properly. I also felt the zip was a bit catchy when trying to zip it up. When I processed the return I mentioned this. Now they won’t refund my money until they investigate what caused the zip to stick. Not impressed and won’t order from them again.
Very poor after sales service and attitude
Ordered a Summer House from them and everything was great. Unfortunately I was unable to construct the Summer house for a few months and when I started there were quite a few small things missing, felt nails glazing nails etc and I unfortunately cracked one of the glass panes using thicker gauge nails than those provided, as I had run out, ie they had not provided the numbers as per the instructions to construct the summer house. I contacted them about various shortages and also asked for a replacement glass. In summary they said I had waited too long to construct and make a complaint but said they would get back to me but never did. Ok when they want your order but no help after sales if you have a problem. Very poor attitude which would make me shop elsewhere in future.

Reply from Outsiders Store
Poor service and no jacket
Placed an order for a jacket. Received an email from the courier (DPD Local) five days later saying that it would be delivered with a one hour delivery window. I immediately received another email saying that it had been delivered with a very blurry photo. The jacket hadn’t been delivered at all.
Contacted Outsiders customer service who were helpful and responsive. However they told me that I’d have to wait for DPD’s internal investigation to be completed before a replacement could be sent. I wasn’t happy about this - by that point I’d already waited nearly one week for a fairly expensive item (for me at least) with no indication when it would be delivered. I asked if a replacement could be sent and was eventually told that this would happen.
Nearly one week later (i.e. 2 weeks after the original order was placed) I still hadn’t received anything so contacted customer service again. They told me that they were still waiting for DPD to complete its investigation and a replacement would be sent. As such, when they’d told me that a replacement would be sent one week earlier, this clearly didn’t happen.
In the end, I’ve asked for a refund. I’m not particularly happy that I have had to wait whilst DPD completes an internal investigation; I didn’t choose to use DPD (it is contracted by Outsiders) and it’s the retailer’s obligation to make sure that the product is delivered to the customer. Given the value of the item, I think the retailer should have sent a replacement as soon as the loss was reported.
good service
After trying without success to buy my shoes from shops I already knew, I found outsiders online. Good website, good communication, fast delivery. Happy customer.

Marks review
Ordered some trainers, DPD went to the wrong house usual lunatics involved. Phoned up outsider's to get the trainers sent to Liverpool store so took a few days to arrive great service all sorted.

I bought a 'Stan Ray Tropical Men's Jacket' for a suspiciously low price of £62.50. These things are £150 elsewhere. I panicked after purchase thinking it was a scam. Just received the parcel and it's 100% legit.
Also, they send you the whole 'tracked parcel' thing which is assuring. Not sure about returns or whatever, but in this case, I won't need to be doing that.
Came on time. Fully tracked. Regular emails from the company. The product is perfect.
****avoid**** terrible customer service
****avoid**** terrible customer service
I returned an item 6 weeks ago which they signed to confirm receipt and still no refund
Constant ignoring of chasing mails
Would not recommend in the slightest
No delivery, not a real company
My order never arrived, DPD investigation opened and closed, yet still no resolution of product received or refund.
I’ve been waiting a month since this has happened and was being super patient and understanding. Now it’s just a joke. Had concerns whether the company was actually real or not and thought next day delivery during Christmas period was too good to be true. Wouldn’t trust.customer service just pars you off and make you wait for nothing!
Good stuff free returns
Good stuff, free returns is always a bonus and they processed my return of a bad fitting cap very quickly A+
Amazing online customer service by a…
Amazing online customer service by a man called Ollie. Quick responses and went above and beyond to help solve a problem. This is the first time I've used Outsiders store but will 100% be using again mainly due to the friendly and helpful service I received. Cannot thank him enough for getting my items for me in time for my holiday.

First time using Outsiders Store
First time using Outsiders Store. Ordered a North face coat that was out of stock on the North Face website. It arrived within a couple of days and got it cheaper than the the official website of North Face. Impressed and would shop here again.

I ordered over £500 of kit that didn't arrive. Upon ringing to find out the wheres about of my items, they blamed the courier service, and now left without any items. What a waste of time. I have now been given a refund.
