Questions about Boden clothing?

[Shufflebumnessie]

I've never bought anything from Boden but a catalogue recently arrived offering a decent discount with free delivery and returns.
I quite like the look of their shorts, and possibly a sun dress, but just wondering if they are worth the price?
Also, what are Boden sizes/fit like? I think I'm a 12 in most places. Are they generous or about right?
Thanks

My perception is they're about right to generous .

Have been buying Boden for years. Always good quality (with the exception of one woollen jumper which went bobbly after just a few wears). I have some summer dresses which I’m still wearing after several years and they still look as good as new. I think they’re not quite as stylish as they used to be (IMO more frumpy fabrics), but you still can’t beat them for quality.

PS agree with bengalcat about their sizing too.

I find the clothes good quality for the price especially with a voucher or code. I wouldn't ever buy full price, there's usually at least a 20% off code knocking around.

If you're usually a 12 you would be a 10 or 12, might be worth trying both on your first order and using the free return.

The sizing is true if you’re not too curvy of hip. I have a big difference between waist and hips and their trousers are hopeless on me! Quality is ok but not what it used to be at all.
