“The discrepancy between the sizes, even of the same model but with a different colour was too much.
Both of the sweaters I ordered (of the same model) were considerably larger than what's indicated on their website. However one of them was much larger than the other, even though it was the same model with just a different colour, and it wasn't just a little bit larger but 4-5 inches larger. Worse is that the arm lengths of this particular sweater were disproportionately larger than the body, as was the arm width.
So while I could adjust the first sweater with a short wash in my washing machine, this second one took me several weeks to get into something I could actually wear, although the end result was not that pretty. I'm surprised nobody at the company actually checks these things, i.e. does quality checks.
Returning a product from outside of Ireland or the UK is not that convenient, for me it was not a realistic option. Safe to say I will not order from Aran Woollen Mills again, the discrepancy is just too much, it's too much of gamble if you order from abroad.”
