Updated March 11: I’ve adjust my star rating up to 3 stars up from 1, due to the responsive customer service, swift reply and generous offer from the store manager to replace the T-shirt with an alternate.

Hoping the first t-shirt was just from a ‘bad’ batch I accepted an exact design replacement which was quickly sent to me. I was saddened to find it was no different than the first. It remains unwashed, unworn with tags on and will be stored until I can best figure out what to do with it. A shame, since I adore many of the RB color pairings and designs, they’re fresh and fun and you assume the premium cost means a premium product. Perplexing why the quality (at least for this t-shirt design) just doesn’t live up to the visuals. Note the screen print design itself is flawless, just the cotton t-shirt that’s too rough to enjoy. There’s plenty of excellent, affordable, ethically sourced high quality cotton t-shirt wholesalers out there to choose from.. I hope RB finds one asap to replace whoever they’ve been using.

Original review (shortened) from Feb 7: My first purchase was 2 weeks ago of the iconic Harry’s bar t-shirt (in green) which I regret buying.

First issue was that it took nearly 2 weeks to get it after I paid since they didn’t ship it for another 5 days while saying nothing in the interim. It finally arrived, I excitedly took it from the plastic bag, felt the shirt, then dread set in. This much hyped $60 shirt was super stiff, literally felt like canvas, no exaggeration.

How is it possible to source a t-shirt from Portugal (often known for soft cotton shirts, as France is) that’s cheap, scratchy, thick, sub par quality? A fun screen-print design doesn’t make the feel of the shirt any better, and a wash and dry didn’t change anything except the size- slightly roomy originally so I didn’t mind it shrunk by a whole size but remains dreadfully stiff.

I’m experienced with buying tops and indie fashion items (once a personal asst to an high end buyer for a fashion co) and am particularly attuned to cotton quality which can be judged by hand feel. I figured RB wouldn’t exactly use wonderfully soft cotton t-shirts made from durable Tangϋis from Peru- the best in the world, but this is the other end of the spectrum. When an inferior cotton like this (likely a blend that’s been treated in a chemical bath) is such poor quality there’s no way normal wear or a few more washings help soften it.

The t-shirt brand source is surely generic and Chinese made, of crappy cotton RB bought in bulk to keep costs down. A made in Portugal tag was added (like in the US, likely a technical thing only meaning it was partly assembled or sewn there) then is added the artsy screen print so they can advertise it as a high end product.. what they pay in bulk versus retail price paid difference means a high profit spread for them while the customer is left with a t-shirt no one could love wearing.

Feels like a junky shirt you’d find in a Salvation Army bin you’d only use once to polish old furniture with or clean rust off vintage bike wheels.

Since the T-shirt is washed and dried now I can’t return it for a refund. This has been a lose lose scenario. I lost money, they lost a customer. It’s not hard to use decent bulk t-shirt stock, which isn’t expensive. Being cheap shows lack of character and is disrespectful to buying customers who assume for what they spent means they’re getting a premium product. Cute advertising doesn’t live up to the hype.

Love this brand. Great service and great quality

I bought a windbreaker from the K-Swiss collaboration online. It is awesome. I love this brand and received my package within a few days without issue.

Discovered this little gem of a brand from their pop up shop in Covent Garden. Their unique twist on a traditional style really sets them out from other companies I used to use. Not to mention the incredible collaboration that they repeatedly mange to achieve from iconic global brands. This all added with the high quality clothing products, makes this a brand that will be a welcome addition to my wardrobe for many years to come.

Good stuff. Would get again

These guys make great clothes. I love their stuff. I get tons of compliments

The merch is awesome, customer service was perfect.

Excellent quality, strongly recommend

I always enjoyed the original Rowing Blazers "clubhouse" and I was very excited to hear it was coming back in the summer of 2022. I visited their new location on Rivington Street and I was not disappointed. The vibe was even better than the original clubhouse, the selection of products was bigger, and the staff was friendly and helpful as always. It's a rarity to find a store with such personalized customer focus like what used to be common back in the day.

I'll definitely be back: excited to see their next collaborations after Arthur Ashes, Seiko, and Zodiac! I hope they keep doing what they're doing!

I have bought multiple items from RB over the years and the clothes are always really high quality and have lasted incredibly well after years of wearing them! Postage to the UK was decent and never had any issues getting hold of them.

Product quality is extremely high, and the designs are excellent. I have been on the receiving end of one incorrectly dispatched order, but the company went above and beyond to resolve it very quickly.

Rowing Blazers is the real deal! Incredible quality, and a true to heritage feeling. Owner Jack is a great figurehead who represents all of his collaborations with authenticity and respect, all with vibrant colour. I love it all!

amazing quality clothes, good service

Have been a long time fan of Rowing Blazers and have everything from rugbies to ashtrays - love everything they do! Always make a point to go into the store as everyone is so friendly, kind & helpful.

I was initially disappointed with Rowing Blazers customer service until the president of RB reached out to me personally to apologize. I was blown away. Not only did they fix my order, they offered me a $150 gift card. I'm retracting my initial disappointing review. Rowing Blazers has done a wonderful job of addressing the customer service / order jam from this holiday season, they're beyond considerate to their customers and I'm extremely pleased that a company like Rowing Blazers (which values quality clothing and customer service) is in business. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a fresh and fun take on preppy style. I'll definitely be purchasing from them again.

Excellent customer service. I had questions about women’s sizing and they got back to me right away. Ordered a sweater and very happy with the quality.

Love their high quality clothes and have had only positive experiences with their customer service and store staff!!

The clothes are super super cute and the staff are so nice!!!! I have collected many RB pieces over the last few years and I still wear many of them throughout the week. Also I get THE MOST compliments on my RB pieces!!! J’adore!
