About Us

Lands' End is a direct merchant of traditionally styled clothing for the family, soft luggage, and products for the home. We offer products through our catalogs, on the Internet and in our Inlet stores. Our goal is to please our customers with the highest levels of quality and service in the industry, along with an unequivocal ironclad guarantee.

Lands' End was an "early adopter" of the Internet, launching its Web site (http://www.landsend.com) in 1995. Initially, the site featured 100 products as well as stories, essays and travelogues. Today, the U.S. site offers every Lands' End product from all of our different catalogs, including an extensive Overstocks section, where excess merchandise can be purchased at steep discounts.
Lands' End has been a leader in developing new tools and capabilities to enhance the online shopping experience and to foster one-on-one relationships with its customers. Some of these innovations include:
My Virtual Model™ — Lands' End was the first apparel company to offer this innovative shopping tool. You can create a 3-D model of yourself by providing critical measurements, which are then applied to your personal Virtual Model.

Once a virtual model is created, you can use it to "try on" items and outfits, to see how they will look on your body. Outfits can be stored and recalled for later reference. Once created, your model can also be used at other apparel Web sites in the My Virtual Model network, and can be e-mailed to family and friends.
Lands' End Live™ — A nifty feature that allows you to talk or "chat" online directly with our famously helpful customer service representatives while shopping at landsend.com.
Lands' End Custom™ — Custom-crafted clothing made just for you! Get all the comfort and quality you expect from Lands' End, in styles made to fit only you. Simply answer a few questions about fit preferences and body type, and the garment will be individually tailored and delivered to your door in approximately 2-4 weeks.


Swim Headquarters, featuring Swim Finder — Looking for the perfect swimsuit? We have hundreds of options to suit every shape and style preference. No time to browse? Swim Finder instantly sorts through all of our styles to pinpoint the ones best suited for you. Search by suit style, height of leg opening, bra type, body shape, or even "anxiety zones" — body areas you'd like to accentuate or camouflage. Many of our suits also work with My Virtual Model™, so you can see how they'll look on you.
Outerwear Headquarters™ and Outerwear Find & Compare — This seasonal, easy-to-use guide to all Lands' End outerwear helps you locate the perfect jacket, coat or parka for any weather conditions. You can also select as few or as many items as you wish for an apples-to-apples comparison of prices and features.
About Lands' End quality
Lands' End has built its reputation on the dependable high quality of its merchandise. Customers have come to expect a level of quality, durability and value that's truly superior in the marketplace.
Lands' End products are produced to our own, internally developed high standards — more stringent than the more general standards used by most of the apparel and home industries. Fabric and material quality, construction details, style, and sizing are constantly being reviewed and improved.
The company employs more than 150 quality assurance personnel, each one a specialist in a specific product catagory or categories. They rigourously and continually inspect our products – onsite, at the manufacturers' facilities, and again when products arrive in our warehouse – to ensure that all standards are being met, all the time.


Lands' End tests its clothing for a comfortable and consistent fit by trying garments on real people, not just models. For example, more than 100 local children fit-test and wear-test all types of kids' products, offering their advice on fit, style and comfort.


In addition to outside, independent testing, we also test fabrics in our own lab, using the most sophisticated processes in the industry.
