I had an issue with the LDX shorts

I had an issue with the LDX shorts I had ordered and found they weren't the correct fit for my application. I worked with Brian in customer service and he was more than helpful on resolving the issue I had. He even got me a new pair that was correct for my riding style at no charge.
Thanks Brian for great customer service!

Tom, this is exactly how customer service should work. Riding style matters, and getting the right gear for your setup makes all the difference. We are glad Brian could sort that out properly and get you into something that suits you better. Thanks for taking the time to say so.

I forgot to enter my discount code before checking out. I contacted customer service about my error. Harry responded right away and quickly applied the discount to my order without a fuss. This is the kind of service that generates return business and word of mouth referrals. Good job, Harry.
Thank you,

Now that’s customer care!!!!!

Having dealt with these guys in purchasing impact shorts for snowboarding, I cannot give them any less than 5 stars. Initial purchase was smooth, easy and delivery time was prompt considering I’m based in the uk. Left a comment on their facebook page to say how pleased I was with their product but mentioned I’d made an error by ordering a size too big. I was responded to by Brian in their support team thanking me for my positive comment and as a thank you they would honour a free replacement in my correct size and that there would be no need to return my original purchase! My replacement was taken care of quickly and was shipped within 24hrs of their initial contact. Completely blown away by their customer service and would recommend these guys to anyone looking to purchase these products to help with their boarding/riding. Brilliant company!!!

Bought snowboard impact shorts and used then recently in germany on the slopes. I had a few heavy falls and they protected me. I am sure i would be more bruised and achy if hadnt of worn them. They also serve well as insulation when sitting down in the snow todo up my bindings. Thick padding and i suggest try get a size smaller than you usually would for a snug fit. They arent over padded so do not hinder movement. Order early and allow a few weeks.

I just want to let everyone know what a wonderful experience I had with Rippl Impact Gear.

I ordered the new cruiser support shorts and they were too big for me. I emailed the support team and Brian immediately addressed my email by sending me a link to complete the exchange for a smaller pair. Really easy to do.

Rippl Impact Gear have been terrific and I will be letting my friends know about my experience.

THANKS BRIAN!!!

Good for hot weather!

Regarding the warmth of the pants, in hot weather (30°C+):

I bought a pair last year, and live in the BC Interior. Even with the kevlar lining, they weren't too bad! Plus, they're super comfy ☺️ 10/10 would recommend!!

Great jeans very comfortable.

Got my jeans before Xmas and with weather we had never had a chance to try them on until last week. It was quite cold and wearing these jeans I was nice and warm and they were so comfortable whilst I done a 60miles ride. Definitely good value for money. Highly recommend these jeans.

What a great experience

What a great experience. Great feeling product, but I ordered a size too big. I thought it would fit me, but because of how stretchy the material is, it seems as though I can size down and it will fit better. Customer Service was AMAZING.... and Harry helped me through the process. They even shipped out the new size through the return process before I shipped back my initial pair of shorts. Thank you so much!!!!!

Matt, this is exactly how sizing should be handled. We know returns can feel like a hassle, so we try to remove that friction wherever possible. Great to hear the stretch works in your favor once you sized down. Thanks for trusting the process and for the energy in this review.

order these shorts and you'll be rocking again!

After a hard fall on my butt on a box, I finally ordered some. I fell a few times on purpose today, and they really work well! I ordered two because I wasn't sure if the size would be right, but they run quite large! I'd say if you're a bit nervous because you've fallen on your tailbone, order these shorts and you'll be rocking again!

Toy, we love the commitment to testing them properly on purpose. That is confidence right there. Tailbone falls are no joke, so hearing that they made a real difference means a lot. Thanks also for the sizing note, that helps other riders massively.

Overall a satisfactory experience but beware on your purchases

Overall a satisfactory experience buying from this company. Wouldn't recommend it, and probably not going to buy again based on the experience so far.

Pros
- They did resolve a sizing issue with the trousers and did issue them out to be rather quickly once they responded to my emails.
- Seems like a decent quality in their products (bag and trousers were purchased).
- When in touch with Harry (customer service), he was quick enough to get things moving and took ownership of the delayed responses.

Cons
- Sizing concerns mentioned in the reviews and from my own experience are very accurate.
- Took over two weeks before anyone from customer services responded to me after multiple emails and 'contact me' notifications (did cause me a lot of concern of which I did think about contacting the bank).
- Packaging is really poor, just bundled into a bag with no further marketing of their material just wasn't a nice fit to round things off. Felt that more care would be given from a Vinted purchase from a randomer.
- Didn't acknowledge or answer my questions in tandem with my initial query about any longer sizing in their Jeans.
- Issued me a sizeable discount as soon as the purchase was made, which I found to be like sticking salt in the wound.
- Although my order had multiple purchases, it was all split, of which I found rather odd with no explanation. If it's a warehouse or stock issue, I would understand but on the website it purposely won't let you buy products out of stock... so.. unsure on that issue.

Aaron, we genuinely appreciate the time and detail you put into this review. Balanced feedback like this is incredibly valuable, even when it is tough to read.

First, thank you for acknowledging that the sizing issue was ultimately resolved and that Harry stepped in to move things forward. That said, waiting over two weeks for a response is not acceptable, and we completely understand why that caused concern. No customer should feel like they need to consider contacting their bank just to get a reply. We are sorry for that experience.

Your points about sizing consistency, packaging presentation, unanswered questions about longer jean lengths, and split shipments are all noted. None of those should feel confusing or careless. We have shared your feedback directly with our customer service, operations, and product teams so it can be reviewed properly. Clearer communication around stock, shipping splits, and sizing guidance is something we need to improve.

The post-purchase discount frustration is also understood. That was not intended to feel dismissive or insensitive, and we can see how it came across that way.

While we are glad the product quality met expectations, we fully accept that the overall experience did not. Thank you for being candid. Feedback like yours is what helps us tighten gaps and raise our standards moving forward.

Incredible Customer service

Initially bought a large which was far too big for me. Which i was gutted about as the shorts themselves look epic and way much lighter and more comfortable than my previous impact shorts. And as usual i couldnt be bothered to go through the returns process. But Rippl reached out to me and sent me the correct size free of charge. The customer service has been incredible and they have completely made sure i have the right size and am completely happy.
Buying anything off facebook adverts is always a gamble but these guys have smashed it out of the park with how they have made my customer experience perfect.
Thanks Rippl. Pretty sure im going to be repping my impact shorts for years to come and saving my ass on the mountain. Many many thanks

What wonderful customer service! I ordered the large size impact shorts and found them to be a bit loose. Emailed customer service and their response time was incredible!

"Bought my grandson some for skiing. He's just come back from a weeks skiing in France and says the shorts were very comfortable and so was the knee protection, elbow protection and spine protection. I highly recommend this business including their excellent after sales department. Excellent product excellent staff., (no I don't work for them)"
