Ripley RaderReviews 11

I wanted to love them! So badly. My pants were 228$! But I thought it would be a great investment since I expected to wear them almost everyday and I could get rid of all my older pants. First, I will admit I made the mistake in ordered a regular length I wanted to order the cropped ones. I immediately noticed this mistake, and I immediately contacted their customer service so they can fix this before. My order was even processed. They never responded back to me. It took them a month and a half for them to respond back to me by that time it was already too late. I had to return the pants so their customer service was not that great. Also once I finally got my cropped pants I realize they fit lovely I really did like them. The material is a little thinner than expected. It feels nice but not almost $300 nice but I decided to keep them I wore them and as a day went by they just stretched out so much so by the end of the day, I was literally trying to pull my pants up because they were just so overstretched. They shrink back when you wash them but when I use them again, they just stretched out again so they're very uncomfortable to wear since these pants were so unbelievably stupidly expensive. I wanted to see if I can exchange them for a smaller size note I've only wore these pants twice and they said no they do not allow that because I already wore them which I'm very shocked. These were very expensive pants and that's a very cheap policy, but that was just my Opinion. The only thing they could offer me was a 10% discount to buy another pair they're stupid so I kept the pants. I don't wear them too often cause by the end of the day they're falling down they're sagging whatever. I've had these pants for a little over six months now and yet I'm not using them every day like I anticipated to use them. I've carefully washed them. I laid them down to air dry I wash them by hand. I took it to the cleaners ones. I'm trying to be very careful however they're already peeling. This is really ridiculous and I'm so excited and disappointed. I wasted my money on this. I would've had better pants better quality better service at an Old Navy.

DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE 1) The quality of these pants does not justify the price. The fabric is thinner than expected and doesn't hold its shape well. 2) Don't bother unless you're 5'7" +++. I am 5'4 and not only were the pants insanely long, but they went up to my bra! The crotch length is way way way too long for anyone who isn't tall. I ordered a small which is my regular size and could not have sized down. The sizing is absolutely ridiculous. I wouldn't buy these under any circumstances given the cheap fabric though - you can do better. Try zara. I have pants with the same shape and look from there - made out of higher quality fabric and they actually are sized properly... mine were maybe $50? Which i think is the max anyone should pay for these poorly made pants.

This is the 2nd time this happened from this company. I placed an order, paid extra for shipping to receive it on time. However both times the items I ordered were late and I was unable to pack the items for my trip.

For the amount of money I paid for these pants their customer service need to step it up! Shipping is done by snails and you have to pay for the return! Sizing is weird so the large was to big and I figured I'd do an exchange for the smaller size. Easy right...NO! It took forever for the exchange to happen and then DAYS till they shipped the new pair out. The new pair left CA on June 5th and here we are June 18th and still no pants. I bought these for two big trips this summer and now im leaving for the second and I wont have them. I am VERY disappointed with this company and they really need to STEP up their game. I just hope the pants were worth the wait! According to reviews it does not seem like they will be.

Order took 23 days. No communication. Pants are unwearably long. Expressed dissatisfaction. They are making ME PAY to return

I am 58 years old and in great shape, I am 5'6" and with 5 inch heels they are still way too long. The bell bottoms are super wide and were overwhelming for me. I am short waisted and the top of the pant came up to just under my breast. If you are 5'9 +, long waisted and a size XS, I am sure you could rock them.
I wanted them to work, sadly a waist of time and money because I had to pay to ship them back. They are all over instagram and I should have read the reviews first. Shame on me.

Online stores are hard to buy from because you can't touch, see up close or try items on. You're looking at reviews & making a best guess. I saw virtually no bad reviews for the classic black pants. Bought them in my regular size (checked size chart). It took 16 days for them to arrive & I live in Seattle (shipped from LA). I finally got them yesterday, tried them on, and can't believe how long they are! They are designed to be hemmed it seems. I'm 5'9" and generally have to buy 'tall' in my pants. These are "normal' sized but extremely long. Like I'd have to put on 3 inch heels and they'd still be grazing the ground. Really strange no one has mentioned this. The rest of the pant is ok. Nothing special. I don't understand the $200 price tag. Now I either have to pay to ship them back as a return or pay to have them hemmed. I wouldn't make this purchase again. Taking the time here to write a review to help others not make the same frustrating mistake I did.

UPDATE: I kept the RR pants and have worn them twice, on occasions where I wear high heels. They are fine for that purpose. AND, I bought the wide-leg ponte pants from Quince and they are AMAZING! My first time buying anything from Quince and I am totally impressed with the quality. They arrived quickly too, even though sent from Australia. Most of all, they are what I had hoped the Ripley Rader pants would be. They fit perfectly (I bought the one with the bigger inseam for my long legs). I can wear them with anywhere from a 1-3 inch heel and they look lovely, don't drag on the ground but meet the ground perfectly. AND, the Quince pants are 1/3 of the price. I bought them in 3 colors now and cross my fingers they come out with more colors.

I purchased their wide leg pants and some shirts. The pants seem nice and I will keep. Note they are long (I am 5'8) so may require hemming. I will wear with heels. The shirts run small (I don't agree with their advice to size down). I'm medium build but athletic arms/shoulders and the tops feel very tight. They are also more cropped than I anticipated. They charge for return shipping so it's annoying to have to pay to return the items.

I purchased these pants for a dream trip to France. They completely change shape within an hour by the end of my international flight. They look like maternity pants. They are now sitting in a ball in the top of my closet. They are horrible. Do not waste your time or money. I am 128 pounds and 5/6 I'm a lean runner these pants don't look good on anyone. Trust me.

Pants are so thin, the sizings are off, the fabric is cheap, I felt so angry that I got duped by this Instagram campaign. These are overpriced scam pants. They should be ashamed of themselves. I found an almost identical...arguably better...dupe, on Amazon for under $30. The fabric is so thin that the pants offer zero structure and if you wanted them tight enough so they did, the seams are poorly sewn, and they'd be see through.

I'm so bummed I would have loved to give a 5 star review and love how the wide leg pants fit and the structured look they give…. But BOTH the front back seams are completely breaking down and full of holes after just ONE wear! It's ridiculous for $178 pants, and it's not like they were skin tight and being stretched to the max. I'm not sure if it's a defect specific to this batch or if all of the clothes are of this quality but it's a big disappointment.
