The boot is great. I own a pair and wanted another. Unfortunately, the width wasn't right. When I went to return it, it cost $58 to send back. Boot great: Backwoods return policy....awful.

Low top hiking shoes are difficult to find. A prior ankle injury requires me to only go low top.

I prefer to buy expensive items from the manufacturer's website or from trusted stores. But probably a good discount caught my attention and now I have a problem. I have been fond of fishing for a long time and decided to buy myself a good wader. I chose Simms g3. I have never bought in this store, but after looking some customer reviews I was sure that everything would be fine. I quickly got the waders and my happiness had no limits. But after two minutes I suspected that something was wrong. The original box was missing and there was no a hip belt. The wader looked new. I didn’t put it on and immediately started looking for the store's phone number to find out what was going on, but there was no phone. There is only an email address of customer sevice. I found the address of the warehouse from I got it, and googled a phone number. Of course, no one could answer me right away and a person asked me my phone number and said that they will call me later. Today is the fourth day gone, but no one called. I received an e-mail the next day where was wrote that Simms was not selling a G3 ($ 549) wader with a box and a belt. I was offered to buy a belt separately for $ 26. I contacted Simms and received a confirmation that Simms does sell all waders in a box and with a hip belt. Simms offered me to send a hip belt for free. I decided to return the wader because I suppose that this store either sells non-original goods, or these waders were returned by another buyer withot a box and a hip belt or store makes extra money by seling belts separetly. I made a request for a refund, as without it is impossible to return, and received another response that the waders are not selling in a box and with a belt. I answered and added a letter from Simms. I am still waiting for a response. I wrote on Friday afternoon (12/4/20), probably the customer service does not work on weekdays. I specifically ordered another of the same waders but in a different size in the same store to prove that they are sold with a box and a hip belt. I don't know for what reason to say otherwise. I wrote this feedback so that future buyers might avoid such problems as me. Still have not recived the answer where to return the wader.

First trip to Jackson resulting in several bag seems torn, I can see its not meant for travel. The store stood behind it and gave me a new bag. Second trip (in my car) to the white river resulted in the same seam tears in the exact same spot. 2nd bag is 10 months old and has not been thru an airport. Terrible craftmanship in my opinion.

I highly recommend this jacket. Ordering from Backwoods was a great experience! I was worried at first when I couldn't find a phone number to call about my order (I had ordered the wrong size), but someone promptly answered my email and helped me switch the size before it shipped out. Thanks Backwoods!!!

Backwoods is a great company! They helped me switch my order before it shipped (the size was wrong). I was worried when I couldn't find a phone number to call them, but they promptly answered my email. I got the item I ordered in good time and it is in great condition - and it is the right size! Thank you Backwoods for all of your help!!!

I discovered “paper” soap a couple of years back for when we go fishing. It’s pretty convenient and easy to use and builds a really good lather with just one “paper”. However, with cold water not so much but warm bottle warm it does really good and it gets a good deal of the fish stink out of your hands with two “papers’”.

I searched more than five sites and they were $0.55-$1.00 more expensive than your site. We all love a good deal even if it’s a few cents less.
Merchant Choice
Had a particular product at a good price. Also product availability and I noticed that if we’re allowed to go out and about due to this virus, that your site had a lot of other really great products my family and I can use.

Easy to navigate and product available. I just wish there had been a hair more communication on shipment but I get that with insane times brings unprecedented circumstances.

This is a really nice jacket for a tall person. Or a person taller than 5 feet, anyway. I am 5'1" with longer than average arm length and the sleeves were too long. The length was just below my knees, so more like a coat. It is also too big thru the body....the small wasn't quite roomy enough for a winter-ish coat. So back it goes, to make a taller person happy. I wish if companies want to make clothes for tall people that they would also make petite sizes for less tall people. So sad I couldn't enjoy this nice coat at a great price.

I received a defective jacket. Amy at customer service was very helpful and sent me a prepaid return label. I couldn't ask for more from backwoods.

I have seen this garment several times but not in the color I wanted or the size I needed. This time, Backwoods had the size and color I was looking for and it was on sale! The fit is perfect and because it's the Kuhl brand, the quality is outstanding. This is a purchase I'm glad I waited on as I got exactly what I wanted and a great deal too.

Very easy to navigate and find the items I was looking for. The email was promoting the sale and it was easy to shop by brand and find the item I was looking for. The sale was good enough I could have purchased more items but my time was limited and I was delighted with what I found.

Why Trust Verified Reviews?
Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.
Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.
As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:
Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.
Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.
So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
