Beauty and Fashion
| I want to order some stuff from Boden, would you say their clothes run true to size or small? I hate ordering stuff online that I haven't seen in person and I hate returning online orders even more. |
| I thought their stuff looked a lot better on line than in person. Just my opinion. I do like the online comments -- I found them quite helpful. However, after seeing some of their stuff in person I am not that enthusiastic about this brand any more. |
| I don't like Boden. The styles look cute, but I don't think they are well made and they are overpriced. |
| What are they comparable to? The Gap quality? |
| Definitely look at the comments as they tend to have great info about quality and sizing. It seems that the clothes run big so many times I have taken the commenters advice and ordered a size smaller. I would say that quality in comparable to the Gap. |
| I like Boden. I think it depends on the style as to whether it's good quality/overpriced. The tshirts, etc. are overpriced and some run small. The skirts I've found true to size or big and good quality. |

I think they run big, but I'm a small person. Things that looks slightly fitted on the model are pretty baggy. I think their sweaters and t-shirts are nice - nicer than Gap. The few items I've bought are closer to J. Crew quality. Haven't bought any bottoms from them.
Kids clothes are nice too. Also plenty roomy. |
| I have a lot of Boden. Tops are NOT generous in chest area. Lengths of skirts, dresses and pants is usually excellent. Waists and hips are generous. I am a 10 but sometimes a 12 on top. I am 5'9. Cute styles, wash very well. |

I really like Boden. I think they have patterns/styles that are different from the usual ho-hum Gap/J Crew stuff and I think the quality is the same as J Crew. Agree that they are not particularly generous in the chest area but I've found that they run pretty true to size. Just got this top:

| I like their layered henleys. Bought a couple in the fall and love wearing them. |
