Boden jeans crisis

14 replies

I ordered 2 pairs of straight leg jeans in the sale, two different sizes.

One size fits me quite well, a bit tight around the top but OK

The smaller size I can't do up at the moment but am in the middle of losing weight, have been doing really well.

I'm wondering if I should keep the smaller size and send the other back. I doubt I will wear them much until the autumn anyway.

Is this sensible??!

no

The voice of reason - that's what I needed!

How will you know if they will fit well even after you have lost the weight??!!

No way of knowing that I guess but definitely don't want the larger pair to be too big before I even wear them. If they were for wearing over the summer I would obviously keep the size that fit me now.

Don't you have 3 months in which to return for an exchange/credit voucher?

summery · 09/07/2010 17:05

No I think you only get 7 days to return sale items

I think you get 7 days to get a refund but 3 months for an exchange/credit.
Sale items work slightly differently.You can return your order for any reason at any time within 7 working days after the day you receive it, for a full refund. After this time goods bought in the sale can be returned only for an exchange or credit voucher.

Oh yes of course, brilliant plan, thanks

I bought some skinny jeans in last season's preview- ie bought August 09 and in a size 10 hoping I'd fit into them- never have! I can only comfort myself by reading that everyone thnks they are tiny.
However, Boden offered me a credit note a full 9 months after buying them. Doubt if they would do it for sales though.

love boden jeans and found them true to size for me
love their trousers and jeans all together

I got the two different sizes in both the dark denim and vintage denim and so having decided to keep the larger size, can't now choose which colour I like the best.

I much prefer the dark denim. But then, I am exceptionally lardy so they work better for me.

summery · 09/07/2010 21:23

That's initially why I went for the dark denim for myself but the others look OK as well.
