I have bought Echt tights before. Years before. Got these on sale assuming they'd be the same quality. What a huge mistake. They were see through. It makes them unuseable. But because they're sale items - no refund. "MONIQUE" from customer service made excuses suggesting it may be lighting and suggested changes happen over different "body shapes".… Read more

The funny thing is like a $70 refund would likely mean future purchases for other products but either this a poorly shortsighted company or a company that knows it is purposely dropping the quality of it's products compared to when it started and needed the market share, means that they don't want a repeat customer.

They're relying entirely on the reviews and reputation from their early days but it'll catch up with them.

Don’t buy from this company. My experience was extremely disappointing. Their main return policy page makes it sound like refunds and exchanges are simple and straightforward. However, they do not clearly state that Final Sale items cannot be exchanged. This information is hidden in a separate section that many customers may never see. I wasn’t… Read more

asking for a refund—I simply wanted to exchange the item for a different size because it didn’t fit. Even after explaining that I was unaware of this hidden condition, they refused to help.

If a policy is important enough to deny customers an exchange, it should be clearly displayed on the main return policy page, not buried in another section. I believe this is misleading and unfair to customers.

I will be lodging a complaint with Fair Trading and sharing my experience so other customers can make an informed decision before purchasin

Their system allowed me to fully process and submit a return for “final sale” items with no clear warning that the return would later be rejected. The items were sent back and received, and only after that did they inform me the return was not accepted unless I paid additional return postage. This is extremely misleading. A customer should not be… Read more

able to complete a full return process through an official portal if the items are not actually eligible. That alone shows a major issue with how their system and policies are implemented. On top of that, I was told my items may be disposed of if payment isn’t made by a strict deadline, and that no further emails would be responded to unless payment was made. That is not acceptable customer service and feels very coercive over a dispute that was created by their own system. The communication has been inconsistent, unhelpful, and lacking accountability. Instead of acknowledging the confusion caused by their return process, the responsibility has been shifted entirely onto the customer. Based on this experience, I would strongly caution others about purchasing from them if you expect clear, fair, and transparent return handling.

A week or so ago I received a padded jacket from Echt that I had purchased for my daughter. She has purchased multiple jackets prior and I too have purchased from Echt for her. Size Large. Always. Upon receipt of the jacket we immediately were surprised that she could barely get it on. It was so tiny. Not sized correctly. I immediately contacted… Read more

Echt. I was told I had to pay for the return postage even though it was mis sized. I did. It was over $10. I didn’t hear anything for days. Then I received an email saying they do not refund “Final Sale” items regardless of whether they fit or not. And their solution was that they would post it back to me even though it was mis sized but I pay postage AGAIN! They said if I didn’t do so by 29/9 it would be “disposed of”. I have made an official complaint to Fair Trading Victoria which is where Echt are based. I have been told that under Australian Consumer Law a company cannot mis represent on size or anything else. Given that my daughter has many jackets from Echt purchased by her and myself in size Large it sets a precedent that this particular one was not true to size and marked incorrectly. I was told to contact Echt and refer them to Section 56 Australian Consumer Law. Even sale items cannot be mislabelled and are eligible for refund. No exceptions. Even if it had been tried on in the shop and was mislabelled no exceptions! If my refund is not paid I have been told to notify Fair Trading Victoria and they will take over. Under Australian law I am entitled to a full refund plus the postage they made me pay.

Item never arrived. I reached out to Australia Post who confirmed the order as lost… no big deal, I reached out to ecth to resend the item or refund. They gave me a store credit only for the cost of the item. So I’m out of pocket $10 on shipping. I approached them about this as part of the Australian Consumer Law? I should be refunded the cost of… Read more

shipping. Thus far they have absolutely refused to do so. I also paid their fee to insure the item… what a joke. He very least is that they could have given me a code for free shipping on the replacement item to break even. Poor form from Ecth. It’s either pay an extra $10 in shipping which will then be a total of $20 for a single item to ship, or forfeit the cost of my item and be out of pocket $51! This is frankly disgraceful. I have made a complaint to the ACCC. Which likely won’t get me anywhere, but this kind of behaviour is deplorable. Do better.

Clothing items were true to size, except for the sweat pants. They were kind of tight, but I think they're supposed to be that way because they're high rise. Super soft materials, feels soft to the touch. Really great because I have sensory issues with fabric, especially after sweating in them. lol Show details ·  1

I previously bought leggings from ECHT for my wife and they were decent for a cheaper brand, you get what you pay for. I ordered the Terry shorts and joggers which were advertised as true to size, so I sized up to be safe. The shorts were comically small and the joggers were still too small. The size guide also appears to be a generic chart used… Read more

across multiple products rather than being specific to these items. Support took over a week to respond, which ate into the 14 day return window, and I was still required to pay return shipping because the items were not considered faulty. Overall a disappointing experience given the sizing claims. Won’t purchase from echt again.

I have bought many items over there years, some items are a hot and others are a miss, if you dont have a perfect body, sizing is very tight, i am usually a 10 and a little curvy and a DD and find i have to go a large on my pants and XL in tops, so not true to size for alot of people I would imagine.

I’ve been buying from Echt for over 10 years, which honestly makes this even more frustrating to write. Their customer service used to be amazing helpful, understanding, and actually human. That’s the reason I stayed loyal for so long. Now it just feels like you’re talking to a wall of copy-paste, ChatGPT-style responses that completely ignore… Read more

what you’re actually saying. The tone comes across so dismissive and condescending, especially when you’re dealing with a genuine issue.

The item I received was clearly faulty or mislabelled, and the sizing was completely off. What’s worse is there is ZERO transparency with their sizing. Their “petite” range is not consistent at all some styles are literally inches longer than others, and they don’t disclose that anywhere. There are no proper measurements provided comparing petite vs regular, and they don’t even include basic things like model heights or how the item is supposed to sit. You’re basically guessing, which is ridiculous for the price you’re paying.

Speaking of price the quality is just not worth it anymore. If items are going to be inconsistent, poorly labelled, and vary that much in length, how are you charging premium prices? It feels like you’re paying for a name, not quality or reliability.

Despite all of this, I was still expected to pay return shipping… for something that was not my fault. That’s the part that really gets me. They would rather lose a loyal, long-term customer over $10 than take accountability and provide a prepaid return label. It says a lot about how little they value their customers.

What makes it even worse is I’ve had experiences with other brands like Elite Eleven and Muscle Republic, and the difference is insane. Their customer service is understanding, fair, and actually resolves issues without trying to push costs onto the customer especially when the brand is clearly at fault.

Echt used to be a brand I loved and recommended to everyone. Now, I wouldn’t shop here again. The decline in quality, lack of transparency, and horrible customer service has completely put me off.

Don’t buy from here. As a size 10 who prefers a bigger fit I ordered a size 12 (L). It arrived and you seriously would think I bought a size 8. Super uncomfortable, and not great for the self esteem. Material isn’t great either. Show details

Very very dodgy, they mark items as final clearance/sale with no indication that you can’t return and as soon as you try to return they refuse and label it back to the final sale, which is against consumer law.

Such a bad customer service. Purchased wrong size item and trying to contact them so that I get refund before they dispatch it. Try every end from their website. Chatted with useless chat box. I have cancelled the order from their website and got notification that my order can get refund as it's not been dispatched from their store. And also… Read more

emailed them in their support email mentioned in their website. Then next day I got notification that it's been dispatched from their store. I did emailed them saying that I have contacted you. They replied me back saying that we don't check our emails and complaints early morning and since it's been dispatched I m not eligible for refund. How ridiculous answer is that. I have contacted them since the time I have got confirmation email with wrong size at the time of my purchase. They got heaps of time before they deliver it to me and check their email. Totally disappointed with all the staff working who have emailed me back who were not helpful. I won't recommend anyone to purchase any product from the Echt.

frustrating. It was a mind game. I lost $80 worth of return clothing . I did what I needed on my part. Had Echt communicated with AUS POST, then someone would have been liable. Registered post is a joke. Echt was nonchalant about it all.

I used to love Echt because they were always true to size and would definitely get exactly what you see online. But now, quality is getting really bad and sizing as well. The picture seems not to capture the true size of it when you wear them. Normally, they would fit to woman with average height but now their designs are only perfectly fitted on… Read more

BEWARE! Echt scams their customers! Don’t even bother trying your items on, because apparently that’s enough for them to refuse a refund, completely against ACCC laws and consumer rights. My friend made a purchase, tried her item on (well within her rights), decided it wasn’t for her, and sent it back with the tags still attached and in perfect… Read more

condition. Echt refused the refund, claiming there was a “scent” on the item.

They’ve now wasted both her time and money by sending the item back with the TAGS REMOVED and what do you know… there’s NO SCENT either. A bunch of scamming low lifes desperate to make a sale and steal people’s money! Disgusting.

I used to be a major fan of Echt, not anymore. The last products I bought were of significant lower quality, and not to mention the bizzare sizing that runs small. When issuing a return, I explained the issues I had with sizing (one pair of pants were too big and one too small, both were the same size). They ignored my explanation and just gave me… Read more
