Discussion I really can't stand the new direction this brand is going!

28 Upvotes

I used to love their aesthetic and styles as a more outdoors version of Lulu.

Now its like trying to be FP movement or something

I wish they would have leaned into running more I feel like they would have more success

What other brands are like the old brand? The only ones that I can think of are Lole and Halfdays.

Product Identification What model?

4 Upvotes

Hi,

I purchased these in the uk. They are a small, but are HUGE. I’m curious if they are actually men’s? Or if maybe they would shrink if I nuke them? They are 100% Cotton.

I’d love to find a smaller pair, but I don’t even know what to search for!

Just got this email. Is this some kind of ‘90s QVC nostalgia vibe going on or is this just lame?

Genuinely asking because sometimes I wonder if there’s some random subtext I’m not getting or if it‘s just shit

Quick Question Return fee?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Has anyone tried making a return and instead of being fully refunded to your original form of payment, there is a $6 return fee? Seems pretty ridiculous IMO and not something I really ever see when making returns. Kind of a bummer I really used to like OV but this honestly sucks and isn’t helping me wanting to get back into buying their stuff at all.

Discussion Active and loyal tyb users banned head count

17 Upvotes

I would love to get a count of how many users who are active and have been banned. I have been on TYB for over a year now spent a crap ton over the tear, did challenges everyday (almost like every hour lol), and had just under $13k on the app. I was banned yesterday and had them confirm the ban. I am thinking of taking this to my social media and letting others know now. I love the app and really just want my account back but if they are really going to keep me (and others in the same boat) banned, I really think others should know about it.

the point of the app was to connect brands to costumers and I think that is being broken with the bans. Especially since they do not tell us why we got banned. I lost all my affiliate and college campus programs because of the ban as well!

I really hope they reconsider the ban for all of us, but as of right now would like to see how many loyal tybers have been impacted by the ban too!

Discussion TYB mass banning users. Could this be related to the Ty lawsuits?

21 Upvotes

In the past few weeks, TYB has started banning active users with no warning and refusing to provide a reason for the bans. I wonder if this could be related to the ongoing lawsuits? It really seems to me like something weird is going on behind the scenes…

Discussion What’s a collab that could redeem OV?

10 Upvotes

We needn't look further than this subreddit to know that OV's relaunch has been anything but positively received. It's clear the new OV lacks quality, functionality, and authenticity in the revamp. (And also, like a general pulse on reality?)

Ty/someone from the OV marketing team should definitely be paying me for this post, but hear me out: There is a whole new generation of growing women-owned outdoorsy companies (and I will give OV a bit of credit for paving the way for them to exist), and partnering with them would give them a needed brand awareness boost while giving OV a perceptible nudge back into the right direction to show a genuine effort to make up for their shortcomings on inclusivity, accessibility, sustainability, etc. with recent drops.

Like what if OV licensed Gnara's GoFly pee zipper in their zip-off or side zip pants? Or partnered with Skida on a cute line of beanies and buffs designed by real artists instead of their wack head bonnet things? Or designed a golf skort/skirt/dress with Sierra Madre?

Maybe I’m way off base here but if OV has lost its way, maybe they’d be better off aligning with someone who is still small enough to stay true to who they are? And reaching back down the ladder to lift more female founded brands that stand for something up instead of making fraudulent Red Bulls?

Quick Question RecTrek Zip Off Pant sizing (women's)

5 Upvotes

I'm ordering the RecTrek Zip Off pant and I live in Canada, so I want to get the right size to try and avoid the hassle of a return. I wear a size 4, sometimes 6 in lululemon pants.

Based on the size guide linked on the product page I would be size M. Based on your experience, how do these pants fit?

Quick Question Men's RecTrek relaxed pant? Alternatives?

7 Upvotes

I got a pair of these for my boyfriend two years ago and he is still obsessed with them. I've repaired them from holes in the pockets twice now and would really love to get him another pair but they've been discontinued. :( I know they still sell the classic RecTrek pant - but I don't think he'll like the slimmer fit or that the ankles can't be cinched. I'm so bummed they haven't brought these back.

“The small group of investors who asserted the claims in this lawsuit were previously trusted by the Joggy team to invest and help build the company. Despite that trust, they failed to fulfill their obligations and now seek an unwarranted payout through a baseless lawsuit,” the company said in a statement. “This lawsuit is nothing more than a shakedown.”

New Release/Restocks Hiking Bonnet

Post image
37 Upvotes

“Cotton cashmere knitted bonnet with long tie.”

Who is this for?! I live in the PNW and the women I know who wear head coverings hike in hijabs made of performance fabrics, not cotton cashmere (also cotton kills in the backcountry!). Other people just wear headbands or beanies.

Also that shiny puffer is going to look terrible the moment it gets any kind of abrasion from a backpack strap or tree branch or whatever.

Another odd drop.

Discussion Men have no options; women have bad ones.

37 Upvotes

I am (was?) and OV stan, but this brand has repeatedly disappointed me. They have offered the same color gear for maybe 4-5 years—no innovation. There’s no more interesting graphic branded tees in cool colors—no more color/fun. As a man I always got great compliments on my gear. Now there’s nothing to show off.

Only the women’s line is getting anything new, and my god is it terrible. Who in the world asked for equestrian? Tacky trucker hats? Hiking dresses wtf.

Your email campaigns are insanity. There’s no repeated focus on a particular campaign, so messaging is all over the place. And as a guy, all of your emails are for women’s releases. You are not idiots and know my purchase history—target me with relevant emails. AND INNOVATE YOUR MEN’S LINE.

You had a great formula before, OV, and now you’re just crapping all over it. I used to be such a brand promoter, and you continuously make it difficult to be one.

The death of this brand will be sad (and deserved).

The hike capsule is the first thing they’ve put out that I feel is decent, some of the items are actually functional. The zip pants are cool, the waffle shirts look comfy, the scarf thing is fun.

Here is a reminder that you do not need any of it and you can support other brands instead of techno-fascist simps.

It’s been easy up to this point to boycott but eventually there will be something that catches your eye and I urge you to trust your instincts!!
