Received various emails regarding my purchase. Jacket is excellent and fits perfectly.
Great service, fast delivery and great quality trousers, this is our third pair
No problem with shopping experience. Belt arrived as advised and is great.
Order was shipped and delivered on time as promised. Pants are great quality!
I had to send quite a few messages to get a response, on the website, through email, on Facebook, and on Instagram. The response I received was clearly copy/pasted and has led me to believe Northbound Gear isn't the most transparent company. If I had known before purchasing that the clothing is produced in China, then shipped to the warehouse in the UK, and then finally sent out to customers, I never would have placed an order.
Very convenient especially with free shipping for an excellent great-fit product.
The pants are excellent! They are warm and comfortable to hike in. I've taken them snowshoing and regular hiking and they've not disappointed. I ordered mine to be a little bigger so that I can comfortably wear long underwear underneath.
Hubby wanted a new belt. He has quite a few but they are not quite right he says. Easy to find what I am looking for on the site
Customer Service was great and reading the reviews were impressive! These are gifts, so the jury is out until after the big day, but I have referred a few friends to Northbound, I am sure we will be very happy with them!
This is my 2nd purchase. The first being 2.5 years ago. The cut and quality are as good as the first pair. I use mine in the barn and for riding. They have stood up very well. Warm, windproof and highly water resistant. I am giving 4 stars because the shipping is still slow. I am in Canada and as NG is a Canadian company I am puzzled as to why the shipping takes as long as it does. New colour selection would be appreciated. Please consider adding a dark brown and / or olive to your colour selection.
I also ordered black also and am waiting for delivery.Long lead time.
Bought these pants for my wife. She sent me a picture walking the dog in the rain. It's in the 40s and raining. She was smiling! Great job, Northbound!
My husband and son love them. We are a hiking family and enjoy outdoor activities. The pants are a good fit.
Not enough communications and strike didn't help, but need to be told when dispatched and tracking.
Purchased a pair of pants in the wrong size (to large) but cannot get any guidance on an exchange.
Very disappointed in lack of customer service after the sale.
At first I was hesitant because delivery of the order seemed to be taking a long time—because of the carrier. After reaching out to Northbound Gear, they followed up with the carrier and stayed in touch with me to let me know when my pants would arrive and just got them yesterday. And they are absolutely beautiful on and very warm. Wish I'd been wearing them on the NYE backpacking trip I just did. Thank you!
No information on tracking. Delvery very late. Tried calling and no one answered. Tried emailing and no response. Not customer service friendly.
Answer: So far the evidence is that it is a scam. Ask me in a year and maybe it will have arrived in time for next hiking trip.
Answer: China... apparently. Won't know for sure as not yet arrived.
Answer: Hi Elizabeth, I'm sorry for the delay. Upon checking, it shows that your order was shipped last October 14, however, there seems to be a delay with the delivery on the courier's end. They provided an update on the tracking information and I attached a link for your reference. https://www.canadapost-postescanada.ca/track-reperage/en#/details/1023038360005180 As much as I love to expedite the delivery, this situation is out of our control. No worries, I will reach out to the courier to see to it that the item will be delivered soon. Rest assured that your order will be delivered anytime soon.
