"Free delivery and returns is very unusual. Customer service is good. I love the ladies clothing, it is always good quality and lots of wool knitwear. I have two problems with purchases now days, I have put on weight and your sizing is not not normally big enough. Also the length of jumpers, cardigans and dresses is not long enough except in a few styles. Your models must all be 5'5" and I am 5'8" "

"Some of my last purchase was a bit disappointing. Trousers marked as size 10 but seem more like a size 12. Ordered a size small top and was sent a size medium. Overall I’m happy shopping with James Meade because I know if anything goes wrong, it will be sorted out quickly. "

"This is definitely a luxury knit. Very well made. Lots of colours to choose from. Extremely comfortable to wear. Smarter than a t-shirt more casual than a blouse. The pale blue is definitely pale blue almost a blue/grey. Very nice top. More colours will be added to my wardrobe."

Corduroy Trousers Ladies 5 1
"The Sandown trousers are the best I’ve found in many years. Lovely fabric. Well made and a great choice of colours. The elastic in the side waist makes them even better and doesn’t make them look bulky at the waist line like others can. Very comfortable. I will be buying more in other colours."
