Great after sales customer service

Great after sales customer service. I purchased a faulty item and rang the customer service department and spoke to Daniel. Daniel was extremely helpful, looking into my concerns immediately, keeping me informed on progress and progressing my issue to a swift conclusion providing me with a full refund.
My experience is that Paul Smith products are of high quality but it’s good to know that in the unusual event of an issues, the customer service is excellent.

Strange sizes

Used to but a lot, but sizing is very strange in past year or two. On website a 6,3 model is wearing a medium?? Not many people are 6,3 with a 36 chest as they suggest!
When you buy a small or xs it is too tight. Must lose a lot of business, will try elswhere.

Super helpful employees!

I like the Cheshire Oaks shop, I was shopping for something for my dad for his birthday, I always leave it last minute as it’s right after Christmas. I wasn’t sure what to get but I know the employees in here are really helpful and Kim helped me out this time. She took her time and helped me pick something that an older gentleman would like which I couldn’t be sure of. My dad loved his jumper and for the quality, I got a really good price for it too.

Just popped into the Paul Smith shop in Cheshire Oaks and had a great shopping experience. I was helped by Jack again, he is a great guy with an eye for style. He advised my friend on a few item, he was so helpful. My friend bought a shirt and a hooded top. Great hour in store made, great service by Jack. Wish all stores had a lovely friendly sales assistant like Jack.

Just the best customer service.

I just wanted to leave a positive review following my customer service interaction with Gemma. She was genuinely kind, patient, and took the time to properly understand my issue rather than rushing to a generic response.

Gemma resolved the problem efficiently and explained everything clearly, which made the whole process far less stressful than I expected. It’s rare to feel truly supported during customer service interactions, but she handled it with empathy and professionalism throughout.

A really positive experience — thank you, Gemma.

Paul Smith are a great company and coming from Nottingham I feel immense pride in them.

Excellent experience with Jack

I went in to just have a look around and the sales person Jack was very helpful when I asked about the sizing. He then helped while I was in the fitting room and got me multiple “fresh” items from the back. I would also like to say his attitude and general demeanour was brilliant. He really did make our experience excellent, we will be back because of him. Thank you Jack

I contacted Paul Smith customer service regarding a damaged pair of shoes and was very happy with how the issue was handled. The team responded quickly, were clear in their communication, and provided a helpful solution.

The process was smooth and stress-free, and I felt supported throughout. While it’s never ideal to experience a fault, the efficient and professional customer service made a big difference.

Overall, a very positive experience and great after-sales support.

The TBYB service motivated me to order several items at once, including in different sizes as I was not sure which fits. The service is very convenient with super nice staff.

Excellent Quality Scarf But Monogramming Very Disappointing

I recently purchased a wool scarf on-line as a gift for a friend. The scarf itself is excellent quality as one would expect from Paul Smith and a scarf at the price.

As it was a gift I'd availed myself of the option for it to be monogrammed. The scarf is multi-narrow-stripe in very dark colours. Unfortunately the monogramming was also done in a very dark colour and is thus all but invisible to the eye, which is disappointing as it totally defeats the object. This is the reason I've given 4 stars rather than 5.

Good morning Edward,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.

Firstly, I am delighted that you are happy with the quality of the scarf. I hope that the gift was well received! However, I am sorry to hear that you are disappointed with how the monogram came out on it. If there is anything further we can do to help with this, then could you kindly send us an email at customerservices@paulsmith.com and we will be more than happy to help.
