What's the quality like? Thank you!

Yes, a few years ago. It was good. Would buy again if I saw anything I liked (always forget to look on their site) They're German, I think.

Yes! I bought some leggings recently - all cotton with a lot of lycra, harder to find than you think. They have stayed jet black and stretchy, so I recommend.

jird · 16/03/2013 17:51

really good quality, iirc their site has free postage too

NotADragonOfSoup · 16/03/2013 17:52

I buy loads from them. Free returns too!

Yes, the quality is good. I tried to order online recently though and couldn't; when I phoned, I was told you can't order from a Mac or i-phone. Handy, that....

I have jeggings, jeans and some sweaters from Esprit and they're really good quality and keep their colour/shape with repeated washing. Also the most flattering jeans I've had for ages. They do inbetween sizes as well which I like. Def recommend.

NotADragonOfSoup · 16/03/2013 18:49

You certainly can order from a Mac. I order far too much from my MacBook!

I'm fairly sure I've ordered from my ipad before too... Can't be certain though.

Great! I keep seeing things I like, but have been unsure whether to give them a go. What's the sizing like?

I've ordered from them and the quality varies. Some good some bad. The trousers are often made of some weird type of fabric that creases easily.

I bought a cardi from there today, it seems good quality

jird · 16/03/2013 21:18

sizes come up smaller

threepiecesuite · 16/03/2013 21:25

I bought a long length grey cardi from there 3 years ago, it's been on my back virtually every day since and it still looks as good as new.

I generally love esprit but was hugely disappointed by some jeans I bought last year (was replacing an old esprit pair of jeans so actually bought three pairs the same this time). The pair I washed went super baggy and ugly.
Took a bit of wrangling to be allowed to return for refund not just credit note.
But have loved everything else I've had from there.

mewkins · 17/03/2013 10:11

I order lots of tops from them- really nice quality. Also bought some lovely ankle boots from them .

AuldAlliance · 17/03/2013 10:18

That's weird, notadragon: I couldn't register on the site, as when I tried to type my DOB it wouldn't work. So I called the number and a stolid German bloke said Macs and i-phones didn't work. Maybe it's esprit.fr that has these issues, not the UK site?

NotADragonOfSoup · 17/03/2013 10:43

Could be... It is odd! Maybe it's actually a browser issue? I use Firefox.

I am sure I ordered from my iPad before I got my Macbook though, and therefore registered via the iPad. Bizarre!

Have ordered quite a bit from Espirit recently. The quality is really good and they have some lovely dresses and good quality basics, tees and blazers. Have found the sizes come up quite big though, have had to size down on a few things. Its free returns so prob best to order in acouple of sizes to see what suits

NotADragonOfSoup · 17/03/2013 12:19

I think it's always important to look at the "fit guide" for each item - it tells you whether it is true to size or larger/smaller.

newgirl · 17/03/2013 12:31

My fab coat - three years on still looks great

NickECave · 17/03/2013 13:57

I have a lovely black and navy striped sweater dress from Esprit which I bought in a charity shop 2 years ago and it's still going strong - not faded at all. They are quite pricy but IMO the quality is good.
