Poor customer service and misleading return/refund policy

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • Ordered leather jacket on sale; the fit was wrong.
  • Returned in original packaging via FedEx; refund expected, but processing delays noted.

I ordered a leather jacket on sale in early November. Upon receiving it, the fit in the arm and shoulder was not right--so I initiated a return immediately and dropped it off with FedEx 2 hours later.

All in the original packaging. It took multiple contacts with customer service to confirm that they had received the jacket on November 21. CS told me it will take 10 days to receive my refund. Today 12/3 I went to the chat to inquire about the status, and the CSR told me it is 10-14 working days, and because of Thanksgiving and weekends don't count, we are only on day 6, so I need to hang tight and be patient.

This company had no issues immediately charging my account, but had all the problems in the world processing my return and refund. Never shopping with them ever again.

User's recommendation: Stay far away. Bad service and poor fit descriptions.

The retailer was closed for 24 hours due to the holiday, so they’re already delayed processing returns by 1 business day. Then you have to realize they don’t have Amazon-sized staffing, and they likely have hundreds of returns that they received back prior to yours.

99.9% of online retailers will tell you it can take 7-10 business days to process a return. I suggest the next time you make an online order, look on the “help” or “faq” section and confirm what their return/refund policy is.

I guess online shopping is not for you. All online retailers process and charge you immediately.

Wilsons Leather - May I speak to someone my beautiful sway leather jacket got messed up...
Updated by user Apr 28, 2025

I would say awesome I mean, I’ve never had any problems at all when my leathers had need to be fixed or repaired or you know I’ve contacted you guys don’t like it that you’re not in the Haynes mall in Winston-Salem North Carolina anymore but other than that, I’ve been very pleased so let me say I thank you again!!!!

Original review Apr 26, 2025
A jacket that I need cleaned that is still in great shape that I got from you guys years ago, and it's leather suede. I lost my house on Christmas Eve.

I lost my kitty cat. I ain't got it. It smells like a burner, and I'm using the dry cleaners. Well, my insurance company is State Farm, and they're paying for everything to be replaced and redone because my house burnt all the way down, and they're going to put in a new foundation and a whole new house.

I lost my kitty cat; she died in the fire, and just about everything I own.

Some things I was able to save, and like I said, my jacket needs the smoke taken out of it, and it needs to be fluffed up because it is a suede leather jacket from you guys. I want to know if you can help me, please, because everything has been taken out from under me, and this happened on Christmas Eve 2024.

Our film "out of time." We would love to have USR sponsors for this film project.

I love your clothes. When I buy leather jackets, I buy them from your store. The last place I bought a leather jacket was in Las Vegas, Nevada Wilson's house of sway.

Customer service agent was short but definite about no exceptions after 30 days for a return. I was hoping to return a backpack that I purchased in 2021 of November, I bought it for my brothers birthday and 2022 September it wasnt right for him.

But because it was over the 30 days I was unable to return it. I wont be buying Christmas gifts because people will need more than 30 days to return the item
