Anyone else think Boden....

[DoesntChristmasDragOn]

... is a pile of over-priced over-hyped poo?

Some of the kids bits look nice, but I hate that head to toe Boden look, it's just sloaney and wrong!

i want the dalmation wellies [strop]

ohh bought the rosy ones for dd (she didn;t like the dalmatian ones, how couldn't she!?!)

Interesting comments! my two have always had Boden, great quality, never fades, shrinks or falls to bit, and as mentioned it goes for a bomb on ebay 2nd hand as well!

Do agree you dont want Boden head to foot tho DS loves the star/pattern board shorts with plain tee's etc, everything fits him really well, its his favourite! hes worn them since he was a baby and still likes it, I'll make a fortune selling it all when he can bear to let it go and turns his attention to A+F in a few years!

I sometimes get the kid's bits and pieces in the sale, but the adult stuff is horrendous. It is total 'Had kids. Given Up On Fashion' frumpiness.

Just noticed OP date! And people say Mumsnet is not what it used to be!

I love love LOVE Boden - it is expensive but when you take off the discounts that are always floating about it becomes pretty much the same price as everywhere else. And it washes well - and resells well on Ebay!

I actually just hosted a Boden party. It was great. I got a whole evening to try on all the clothes just by myself and the next day when I did my 'party' met some really lovely people.
