Company details

  1. Outdoor Clothing and Equipment Shop

Written by the company

It all started in 2006. Two brothers, Emil and Linus, struggled to find quality gear to ride in. They ordered some from the States, and their buddies were so impressed that they wanted some too. What began as a small project importing gear previously unavailable in Sweden for a small group of friends quickly snowballed into something special. After a few years of selling the big brands, they heard tons of great product ideas, and it seemed those big brands weren’t listening. Then they had an idea. Surely, the best people to create with are those who ride, roam, and follow their passion every day. Ridestore was born with one simple, underpinning ethos: The customer is the brand. The community has always been at the heart of Ridestore, and that’s never going to change. After all, the first customers were friends, and that’s still how we like to think of it today. So, we opened the lines of communication with you, our customers. We threw out the rulebook, disregarded ‘traditional’ company structures, and set out to make our own line of snow gear with the rider community at its core. www.ridestore.com

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

The Good, the Bad, and the General.

General:
1) I have not received my items yet, but I will update this review once I have.
2) All my research leads me to believe that it is a great product (which is why I am leaving this review instead of purchasing a different brand). *update pending*
3) This review serves to make other customers aware aspects of this business that I had to find out the hard way.
4) I have recently moved to the Canary Islands from South Africa.

The good:
1) Their online help seems to be 24/7 which is great.
2) Most of their online help staff are extremely helpful.
3) They have multiple different methods of sizing their clothes which helped me get to a size I feel is highly likely to fit once it arrives. *update pending*
4) They expedited my shipping free of charge.

The bad:
1) Their payment system will not let you purchase a product using a credit card that is from a country that they do not deliver to (I cannot use my South African credit card).
2) Their payment system wont let you purchase a product using a credit card that was issued in a different country to the country of delivery (I couldn't use my Spanish credit card because they don't deliver to the Canary Islands).
3) Their payment system requires you to use the correct site (if delivering to the UK the UK site must be used).
4) Customer service told me that possible solutions would be to "get a credit card from a different country" which is an idiotic thing to tell a customer. OR "To get a friend in a different country to purchase the product". This eliminates the possibility of using services like Banango which handles deliveries to the Canary Islands.
5) The first customer service assistant did not mention that they can manually process card payment if the system does not allow it (24-48 hours) which she should have because this would have solved my problem and eliminated all my frustration.

Conclusion:
I got a friend in the UK to purchase the items and bring them to our ski trip but all the broken telephone back and forth for payment/site issues to be sorted made me want to scoop out my eyes with a spoon. Be aware of the above and maybe you will have a better experience than I did. Hopefully all their stuff is good quality and fits correctly.

Reply to Holly:
Like I said to the customer service consultant, stopping me from using a credit card issued in a different country from the delivery is absurd, and your justification of fraud is idiotic, it would be like stopping internet access to your site to stop hacks. Again all I'm trying to do, is at the very least, make your customers aware of your ridiculous policy regarding payments. In my opinion your time would be better spent fixing your impractical system rather than justifying it.

Hi Michael, thanks for sharing your feedback. We appreciate your determination here to receive some of our products despite the issues that you have mentioned, and it sounds like you have a very kind friend in the UK that was willing to help you out 😊 The main issue here is that we do not ship to the Canary Islands, which is why you had trouble placing your order in the first place. We do hope to open up more shipping destinations but it takes a lot of Logistical planning to do so. With that said, our shipping list is constantly expanding.

The reason that our payment system can block any of the above reasons, is to prevent fraud. It is also to prevent people from making a purchase and having it forwarded on to a country that we do not ship to, because we cannot provide our usual high standard of Customer Experience with free shipping, free returns or any aftercare in the event of wrong sizes, damaged items, incorrect items received, etc.

I appreciate that asking you to get a new bank card is not the most helpful approach here, I will discuss this with my team and how we can communicate any tips that we do have 😊 Manually processing card payments is not something that we can do, but we have a payment form that can be filled for any issues.

Nevertheless, none of the above issues would have occurred if we did ship to the Canary Islands. We are aware of this and I can assure you that we are working hard on expanding our list of shipping destinations as I mentioned above :)

I hope that the products are all perfect for you, and that they arrive in time for you to test them out on the slopes on your ski trip 🙏 If you have any questions about the above, we're always happy to chat via crew@ridestore.com.

Great store

I recently purchased two snowboard jackets and two pairs of pants and I'm really satisfied with both the quality and aesthetics of the products. The customer service is fantastic—quick responses and very helpful. Highly recommended!

The impossible return

Returning package, the return label is Royal Mail, the returns site sends you to a DHL location finder. All the local locations and I tried them all… do not take either Royal Mail or DHL packages… embarrassing, a complete waste of time and expense running around only to be met with, an agent in customer service that advises that they have a new site with an IT issue “sorry”. Unhappy to say the least.

Hey Robert! I'm so sorry to hear about the troubles with your return. Of course it was never our intention to make that complicated for you, we want our returns to be free and as simple as possible 🙏 With the Royal Mail label included in your package, you can head to any Post Office to send it back. With the label / return drop-off's online, this is incase you needed to make a second return of a product at a later date (if you decided to return other items from the same order), or if you did not receive any return label in your box. Please be assured that you can however use either label to send the items back. We have just launched a new version of our site and our ironing out any bumps, so thank you for sharing this feedback! 😊

If you have any further questions regarding this return, you can reach us via the website livechat 😊 ~ Holly

Sending error and lack of responsibility

First of all, they sent a package that wasn't. Then they told me that since they didn't have the same color I asked for they only had the refund option and I should do all the returned purchase. Then it ended up happening that the order was more expensive and when I make the claim, the customer service tells me that they can only cover me the shipment to be express and ready.
Then he claims me to return the package, when they never made the repayment of the first shipment money.
All the time blaming the system that for those reasons I couldn't make the change and ready. The truth was recommended to me, the product may be good but they can correctly categorize shipments is very complicated.

Hey Guido! I'm so sorry to hear about your negative experience 😞 I understand that you were sent the wrong item by mistake and that we could not replace one of those due to it being out of stock 🙏 That is a super bad experience for you and i'm also really sorry if you were unhappy with the options that we provided you, it was not our intention at all to make this experience worse or more difficult for you! 🙏
I would really love to turn this experience around for you, and I have sent you an email now, please check your mail 😊 ~ Holly

Impressive service by Ridestore

Impressive service by Ridestore.
I had to change my size on my ski outfit, and I contacted customer service since I had a question regarding returning my items. I wrote on facebook messenger, and even on a sunday I got a very quick reply, by the most helpful and kind person willing to help with my request!

I can only recommend buying your ski gear from Ridestore, and I will definitely buy from here in the future.

Great snowboarding gear and superb customer support

I bought most of my snowboarding gear in Ridestore. Jacket, pants, gloves, goggles - everything fits nicely, is super durable and looks great.
On top of that, they have super responsive and helpful customer support.

Probably the best customer service I…

Probably the best customer service I have ever received. The Ridestore crew are so helpful, patient and polite [5 stars]. The quality of the product is excellent [5 star]. Waterproof is not quite as good as I would hope but still kept me dry. The product does absorb the water so could potentially leak in a blizzard [4 star]. The style is the best on the market. All of their products look and feel the business [5 star]. The free postage and return is what every company should be practicing and returning is the easiest I have ever experienced [5 star]. My only criticism [this won't stop me buying more products] is the sizing. It's pretty much hit and miss. I am generally a large throughout but can fit a medium on the lower half. I am all over the place with these sizes. I am apparently XL gloves, the medium bottoms looked spray painted on but the large bottoms is quite baggy and it differs between a medium and large on top [3 stars]. Thankfully the free returns makes it a doddle to find the right fit hence the 5 stars. They deserve it.

We'll be sure to pass these comments about waterproofing and sizing onto our products team as we're always looking to improve our gear each season. :)

The best customer experience and high quality products

Ridestore’s customer support is the BEST experience I’ve had in my life (and I’m a savvy online shopper who tries different brands).
They were absolutely on it (return bug in the system with the post code that wasn’t allowing me to create a return label as they’ve recently launched in Ireland) and solved the issue in minutes. They even told me to send them a copy of the return receipt when I dropped it off so they would proceed with the refund asap, not needing to wait until the items arrived in their warehouse. What a CLASS customer experience. Last, but absolutely not least, the quality of the jacket, pants and accessories is unreal - they are made to last (and look great!).
I’d love to give you more than 5 stars as 5 almost seems too little for the quality of the service/products you have!

5 Star Customer Service

My Favorite Winter jacket developed an issue with the zipper. hopped on the chat app on Montec website and a very helpful assistant took care of this situation in minutes... asked for photos and videos but took care of it right away. I am Definately a very happy customer and totally will buy more montec wear because of the way they handled the situation.

Hey Maria
I'm sorry to hear about the issues with placing your order with us.
We're always looking into increasing our available stock and we apologise that you couldn't grab your perfect pair of pants from us!
We produce our gear in limited numbers for more sustainable reasons and to avoid an overflow of stock.
That being said we do occasionally get restocks of some models so you can always reach out to our customer service team or leave your email so you'll be the first to know when it's back!
