The store is overall a good shop but the jeans are a bit of a let down.

Do not shop at River Island at The Mall in Bristol, awful staff, awful management. River Island Customer Services are not any better either. Over-inflated prices to match employees overinflated egos.

I have been a loyal customer of River Island in Belfast city centre for nearly 10 years now, and the last few years I have been really annoyed that when I go into the shops, everything on the shelves and hangers are a size 6 to a 14. They boast big sizes in their advertising, yet there are none in store. They check the stock room, but you know what the answer will be... "sorry, we haven't got size 16 to 18. Why don't you try the internet?" What about the people who don't have a card to shop on t ...

River Island offers great fashion at high street prices. I wouldn't shop here for basics like t-shirts etc (as I tend to think that River Island is fairly over priced). But for individual dresses and tops I would definitely head here on a shopping trip! The handbags from here are also gorgeous! I was given one as a present about 2 months ago, and I absolutely love it! I don't got anywhere without it; it's a great size for day and night use! It's a really individual design and everybody complimen ...

I have been shopping with River Island for a few years now. I must admit for the basics like plain t-shirts and casual clothing I do generally stick to Primark but when it comes to things like skinny jeans and glam clothing for evening wear I always turn to River Island.
The first thing that attracted me to River Island was the amount of choice they had. I noticed all sorts of things on my first visit, the first thing I noticed was, my favourite, jeans! There is SO much choice in jeans its un ...

I know quite a bit about how River Islands clothes have varied throughout the past few years. They do offer a good alternative to 'fashionable' clothing to the pricier, designer shops but on the other hand the clothes have seriously decreased in quality and they have hugely downsized in the past few years making people think they are bigger than what they used to be. The quality of clothes has drastically decreased in the past few years. There are many returns on faulty clothing and accessories. ...

I would just like to add, I work for a River Island in Essex, and we do actually sell leg lengths ranging from an Extra Short to an Extra long. I can understand that they might be difficult to get hold of and not all store stock XS and XL, which is why we offer our website www.riverisland.com available to our customers to ensure that that they can get jeans or trousers to fit them with accurate leg length.

River Island has a good selection of clothing, both casual wear and formal/going out clothes. They also do lots of different lengths for trousers and jeans which is a dream come true if you are petite like I am!
Clothing is of good quality although I've found that recently, they don't have as much choice and variety of clothing as they used to (perhaps due to the time of year maybe?).

I actually wonder how River Island keeps going. Whenever I go in I find they have a very basic and boring selection of clothes, whereas they used to be on the cutting edge. I also find them very overpriced. You can go to stores like Top Shop, Miss Selfridge and New Look and get a better selection of clothes at more affordable prices.

River Island - The clothes are nice but I'm 6 2" and average body. The leg size is 34" and that's their biggest size. HA what a joke, they need to see people are getting taller. Go to Republic they offer 36" leg in all their jeans!
If you're tall, don't go to River Island!
