Took a risk on a crazy Viking Christmas tshirt. Really high quality! Tshirt feels gorgeous and the printing looks great. Love that they’re made to order - feels special!

Exceptional service

I purchased the wrong sized training top and sent it back for an exchange through Royal Mail - top never arrived back at their warehouse but I was immediately sent a replacement! Top quality service and one of my favourite brands for the last couple of years.

Thanks so much Alistair =) Now we're a bit more established, doing everything we can to go above and beyond, especially for those who have rode the wave with us right from the back line. Thanks dude!

Missing item

Ordered two t shirts, confirmed on one order and delivery, only 1 t shirt arrived. Emailed 3 times and have only had generic replies. I am still 1 t shirt missing, no idea when I'll get the other one and total lack of communication from company.
Quality is great, but need to be able to talk to someone when it goes wrong.
Wish I didn't have to resort to writing this.
2nd October
Problem resolved and I'm happy with result.

Hey Barbara, Glad this was all resolved for you. At the time we'd had a staff turnaround and were without a customer service team for a full week. We now have two extra staff to make sure we get back to people faster than ever and within our 24 working hours target.

Blocked me for asking questions.

I wanted to buy a DFO t shirt from this company, I had been monitoring them on social media for a long time, I thought yes viking inspired gear, being a viking my self this was good news, anyway being of viking size I remember leaving a comment asking about sizes and the owner replied very rudely... which was a shock. I was then blocked from being able to ask any future questions, this brand is a bully and they discriminate against real sized men! Avoid at all costs!!!!

You were blocked for that exact comment. You don't have to be overweight to be a 'real sized' man. Men & women come in all shapes and sizes, all are real. Please avoid making further repugnant comments.

if they get your order wrong sending it

if they get your order wrong sending it back for a resize is an absolute pain i put an order in may and its now September and I still don't have my shirts in the correct size and they no longer even have the shirt I originally wanted so they wanted to charge me more money for a different shirt instead of issuing me a refund for the shirt i bought like its not my fault you sent me the wrong item but the more expensive shirt came in the wrong size and now have to deal with sending it back again they did end up waving the fee for getting the better shirt but with much reluctance and when i emailed them about getting the size wrong again i said holy crap in the email and customer service called that "emailing in an abusive tone"

This is not quite accurate. Marcus had sent back his items to exchange (not that we had sent them out wrong). We admit that the exchange process took a while longer than it would due to moving warehouse so we apologise for that. By the time we had opened the order, one of the shirts in the size requested had sold out which is just unfortunately something that may happen. Marcus has hinted he wanted a merino but didn't think it was possible as there was a price difference. I told him this is no problem and we could put through another order to make up the price difference to which he was happy with. When I sent the email to put through the remaining price difference, he became angry and told me he was having to pay more when it had taken so long. I decided to waiver the remaining fee as we had taken a while (this is posting a Merino t shirt for less than we actually pay for it) and as an apology for the wait. It seems the wrong size was sent to Marcus which we do apologise for but we do not tolerate angry emails which marcus had already sent a few and had apologised for sounding ungrateful himself. I have offered to pay for the return postage and refund the cost of the original T-shirt or to exchange for the right size in the Merino. We have only tried to do our best in this situation and apologise for the delay.

Good quality, Friendly correspondence

Friendly service and good quality. I purchased 2 T-shirts from 'Descended from Odin' a few months ago. The Merino T-shirt is great for hiking trip as it's light but warm. The other t-shirt arrived in the wrong colour and was promptly exchanged for a new one with the return postage cost refunded.

As a small company the items were not cheap but were good quality and unique.

A previous reviewer commented that company was enticing customers to provide reviews by offering discounts/vouchers, I would just like to state that this is a frank review and I have received nothing for submitting this.

Service and Support

I have not gotten my products yet but the service and support is excellent! Very friendly and helpful! I made a mistake with a pre order and a in stock item and they changed the order so i can get the in stock item before the pre order item.
I also think it’s a great thing that they have pre order items because like that there is less waste of material what is a big problem in our society!
Until what i experienced until now it’s a great company!

Highly recommend...

I recently purchased a long sleeve t-shirt from Descended From Odin and was very impressed with not only the quality of the shirt, but the international shipping speed as well. Cool design and high quality super-soft organic cotton. I'll definitely be purchasing more from D.F.O in the future.

Great quality and original garments…

Great quality and original garments with sustainable materials. They support charity and have some of the best artwork I have seen which I am happy to rep. Get tonnes of appreciation wherever I wear a DFO t shirt. Worth the money.

High quality products, support and cool social media interaction

I now ordered three or four times from these guys and couldn't be happier. The clothes they're selling are unique, durable and everything they promise. Delivery can take a while which could be a bit 'uncommon' nowadays where you expect any delivery arrive within one or two days, but given that they do the packaging on their own it's a non-issue. This is just to let anyone know to be a bit patient: you'll def get what you order! They are also very communicative and super cool in the way they advertise and announce their things and are looking constantly for new opportunities and to boost their product line-up. Prices aren't cheap but their products quality isn't either so you get high quality goods and service, which is also personal and isn't outsourced to a call-center with standardized replies.You should check them out and see for yourself. If you're not satisfied (which is highly unlikely) they also offer a good refund policy.

Verdict: Can recommend!

Best regards,
Robert

Fantastic experience!

Love these guys. Found the shop/ website after following Alexander Ludwig on Instagram. I recently brought a longsleeved Viking shield shirt and I'm absolutely in love with it. Great material, perfect fit and it came pretty quickly which I was surprised about as I live in Australia. Will definitely be buying more in the future.

Clothes and accessories fit for the Æsir

First discovered DfO looking for T-Shirts with Icelandic runes on. T-shirts that preferably don't have corny "Vikings do it with their helmets on" type slogans. DfO obviously have a passion for the culture and the mythology. This is backed up by the genuine thought that goes into the design and making of the products. Whether that be the sourcing of ethical and sustainable materials, or inviting designers with the same passion for the subjects to put a unique stamp on the clothing.

That one T Shirt lead to many. Then to Merino wool T Shirts, lambswool sweaters, track pants, hoodies and jewellery. All outstanding quality and made with great ethical values in mind.

It's a brand that I want to tell everyone about, yet keep to myself just to remain unique.

Keep it up.

Descended from Odin Quality !!

Hi, i have ordered from this company for myself and for gifts for my partner. These products are very high quality you get exactly what you pay for in both the gym gear and the out wear.
Having some questions about other products I didn't hesitate to email and ask, the response i got was both fast and informative and was more like a decent conversation actually. I felt very valued and straight away knew i would purchase more from this small and clealry well run company. Highly recommend if you like what you see on the website, anything you read will be true to the product and if you have any issues they are very quick on returns too. Thanks and happy Shopping :)

I recently bought some Descended from Odin stuff and I am overwhelmed by the quality and beauty of the products. Last weekend I was wearing my lambwool cloak to a festival and somehow got an attraction to the other visitors. They shouted at me "Thor/Jesus/Curt/*any other guy with a beard and long hair*, f**ckin' awesome cloak you are wearing, where did you get that from"...well, I told them...Descended from Odin!

Good indie business

I've ordered from these guys a few times on behalf of my partner, and since then he has also ordered a few times himself. We've both had pretty good experiences - the clothes look great, they've been of good quality and wash really well. Delivery times have been variable, likely down to postal service rather than the company themselves. I would definitely recommend checking them out.

Descended from Odin is a great small business.

Descended from Odin is a great small business, I’ve purchased a few items from them now and saw a bunch of the guys at Ramblin’ Man festival too. Meeting the gents in person, it was really easy to see how passionate they are about their company and line of products. I’m choosy about the stuff I wear and their products fulfil all my requirements.
The often do some nice discount codes too which is always welcome.
Thanks guys and I hope DFO goes from strength to strength!
