Bobby In Black

I particularly liked the classy delivery package (the black plastic pouch and then the jumper being in the black envelope), although I was disappointed to realise that "DHL delivery" only started four days after the order was placed - rightly or wrongly, quoting DHL delivery made me think I'd have the shipment within about 24-48 hours of purchase, but it was more like a week in the end, by which time I'd gone to the trouble of contacting you to ask where it was.

Service rating : Dealing directly with you is so much better than going to Brook Street.
Product rating : Absolutely excellent service, the lady on the telephone arranged for my jumper to be collected from your london shop and delivered to me, as you had run out of stock.
Great jumpers.

The new packaging was a disappointment. JS shipments used to arrive in strong boxes, now they ship in blue paper envelope that was badly torn on arrival, which was irritating as item was a gift.

Service rating : Overall good but the postage can sometimes not be next day delivery as specified
Product rating : The product is of John Smedley's usual high standard but finding the colour reproduction on their website is not very accurate of late.

Bobby In Black

Service rating : Description states to size down as the Bobby is a loose fitting jumper! I had to send back the medium for a large ad the jumper was nearly skin tight and not true to size. I'm now still waiting for the large to turn up. Customer services were not great when I spoke to them.
Product rating : Still waiting ......

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. I am sorry to hear our service has not met with your expectations. Style Bobby is an 'Easy Fit' style, designed to allow more volume through the body and sleeve. Going down a size would make this slimmer but if you are looking for a slimmer, under jacket fit, we would recommend you try style Ashmount, although this has a higher vee neck. I am not sure where our information state to size down, but if you could let us know, we can check the description.

Yours sincerely,
Freya Oliver - Customer Service Manager
