Quince markets itself as offering high-quality, natural fiber basics at affordable prices, but Reddit users report mixed results on quality, value, and ethics of its clothing line

---

The Good

• Great value in certain categories: “I love Quince. Their Bella jeans are amazing. I have tons of linen from them — matching shirt and shorts for summer, linen bedding, even a rug. Their activewear is great for hot yoga.” (35 upvotes)
• Washable silk: A consistent favorite for ease of care and quality. “Washable silk clothing 10/10. Cotton and linen are also good.” (44 upvotes)
• Fans of the brand overall: “I ADORE Quince. Like worship it. All the sweaters, the silk skirts, everything.” (61 upvotes)
• Workwear basics: “Quince’s ponte cap sleeved dresses are great for work (I’m a litigator and they’re very comfortable for long stretches in court).” (45 upvotes)

The Not So Good

• Cashmere disappointments: “Their cashmere sucks and I felt gaslit by the reviews!” (48 upvotes)
• Durability problems: “Sizing is odd, the material is cheap, see-through, or falls apart in the wash. I’m returning 4/5ths of my order.” (36 upvotes)
• Hit-or-miss quality: “The ponte pants I ordered are horrific. Quince can be pretty hit or miss and yet I keep on ordering…” (45 upvotes)
• Misleading marketing: “Cheaper manufacturers like Quince use shorter wool fibers, which pill more easily than high-quality yarns.” (130 upvotes)

Comparison to Alternatives

• Higher-End Nordstrom, Khaite, Scottish mills: Generally superior, but at a much higher price point. “Cheap cashmere is inferior to geelong lambswool both in feel and durability.” (52 upvotes)
• Everlane: Quince often comes out ahead. “My Quince items are higher quality than my Everlane items — but I’ve only bought cotton, not cashmere.” (40 upvotes)
• Naadam: Ranked above Quince for cashmere. “If money’s no issue: Loro Piana > Asket > Naadam > Quince.” (45 upvotes)

The Verdict

• Worth it for: Linen, cotton, washable silk, and some accessories. Affordable natural fibers are still better than polyester fast fashion.
• Not worth it for: Cashmere and ponte pants, which many users describe as poor quality.
