Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Customers are really happy with the products, consistently praising their quality, with many highlighting the luxurious feel of cashmere items and the genuine Harris Tweed fabric. People also appreciate the excellent quality of the products, often noting their durability and how well they maintain their shape and softness over time.

Although the beret is nice it isn’t of the same quality as last year. Last years black beret is the nicest I’ve found, beautifully thick and fluffy . Unfortunately this navy one is just not the same... See more

Thiefs

Bought a scarf in store they charged me double in Canadian dollars. Be careful. I will have to dispute the charges with my bank. Instead of helping me they referred me to their partner who does the currency conversion. STAY AWAY

I applied on Indeed for a sales consultant role with this brand.

I was told by management that they were recruiting for 2 new stores and needed a new team.

Then I get contacted saying that's not the case and the stores won't open.

Why would this company advertise and interview for stores that don't exist and waste someone's time.

Very unprofessional conduct.

Terrible belligerent customer service

Terrible belligerent customer service. They sent the wrong size which they acknowledge but were not interested in providing a service which compensates for their mistake. This was a present which I have to get the person to send back so that I can get my money back. Don't buy from them on line, it's not worth the risk.

Inconsistent sizing and non-existent customer service

I previously purchased a Janice blazer in person in a reselling store and love it! I recently ordered it in another color online and was surprised that even though they are the same size and model, the fit is completely different. On my original blazer the sleeves hit my wrist, but on the new one they are down at my fingers. When I have contacted their customer service I get no reply. Non existent customer service.

Products not like advertised and terrible service

I recently bought one of their 100% cashmere stoles. The color was absolutely nothing to do with what showed on their webpage. I contacted them and they explained the pictures were taken with another light. The color difference is huge so I refunded it and requested for the shipping costs to be refunded too given that the product advertised was so different from what I got. They refused to refund the return shipping cost. Avoid not only because they are petty and do not want to pay back a shipping cost of less than 10 GBP but also because their products are not like the advertised.

A dismal experience

Oh dear. I went to some lengths to establish with the sales-person that I could return the gloves I had bought for my mother if they did not fit. At no point was I shown the teeny weeny disclaimer by the till that said they don't offer refunds. (Also, I don't think English was this person's first language, so possibly things got lost in translation.) The gloves didn't fit, and the guy I spoke to today said it was in effect tough luck that his salesperson had offered me a refund as this wasn't company policy. This particular store is in Cambridge on King's Parade and I have learned my lesson - avoid at all costs. It's also interesting that Kiltane appears to be a rubbish employer as well. If you treat your staff like s**t, as well as your customers, your business won't last long.

Poor quality

I bought a crew neck sweater and when I took it off, I heard a crack and now it has a hole under the armpit. Even my low quality sweaters don't crack that easily.

Terrible product

Terrible product, terrible customer service. I purchased a cashmere sweater, it was hard and itchy plus very very thin. I honestly question it was cashmere at all. Returned it immediately but you need approval from CS to do that. Good luck with that, no phone number no return of email for days. Please save your money,

Avoid Working here at all cost

At my interview I was shown the scale of kiltane and it was impressive, I was told after the summer that an expansion of the store was to happen and I was going to be apart of it and involved. I accepted the job thinking I was to be listened and heard to about my opinions, thinking my experience and time in the relative field was something that Kiltane would respect. Boy was I wrong, I was cut out of all decisions, I was managed on instead being worked with. The only point I felt appreciated was during the summer and the fringe festival and that was only because we were making lots of money for them.
You will love the people in your store but I ended up avoiding any interaction with kiltane itself because of how they made me feel on a daily basis, small and inconsiderate.
If you need a job this is great for you if you love being on the lowest minimum wage. Kiltane net worth was £10,722,894.00 in 2021 and most likely substantially higher now. I've worked in smaller companies that pay there basic employees better salaries than they do here.
Head office and HR hold the power and you are just a worthless cog in their machine, underappreciated and expendable, I have literally been outcasted since giving my notice
I hope this review will help anyone deciding if they want to work here, Everybody can find something better than this

Kiktane are an abysmal company and…

Kiktane are an abysmal company and should be avoided like the plague. Their staff are money grabbing and unethical and deliberately encourage/coerce you into making a purchase without notifying you that they do not offer refunds, only credit notes (expecting you to notice the little plastic sign by the till and read it). This was after I made it VERY clear that my purchase was for my mother who has late stage Alzheimer's and would most likely need to be returned as she is incredibly fussy To add insult to injury you then have a very limited time to use the credit note and, as I have just discovered, it cannot be applied to online purchases!! Emailing customer "services" gets you nowhere and you are met with an unsympathetic and belligerent/rude attitude with zero effort to reach a fair and satisfactory outcome. I've never known a store/company like it and hopefully never will again. Enter and purchase with CAUTION. Buyer beware!

Very disappointed with the customer service. I live in Edinburgh. There is one store and a Kiltane warehouse in Edinburgh and they didn’t offer that I return it for free, even at the warehouse. I had to post it which is old-fashion and ridiculous. And not green at all.

Besides, the photos on the website are not very accurate. I ordered a colorful and light scarf and the item received was dull and dark. I mentioned it to the customer service. First email : according to them it was because of my devices display apparently. I sent screenshots coming from their website showing the difference : no answer. Dreadful

Poor quality garment & service

Very disappointed with the quality of products and after sales service.
I bought a cashmere cardigan for my wife in November as a Christmas present. It cost around £100. Within two months of having it, after wearing it on only a very few occasions, the neck has become detached from the body of the garment and, despite repeated appeals to the shop in Edinburgh and their customer service department, we have been unable to obtain either a refund or replacement.

The shop in Oxford is committing fraud

The shop in Oxford is committing fraud. They put products on sale and charge the whole price. It is not possible to return products or get a refund of any kind. Embarrassing for the company and the shop in particular
DONT EVER SHOP HERE
