Lingua Franca Reviews

I wouldn’t recommend this unless you’re okay with overpaying. For what you actually get, it felt way too expensive, and I left feeling like my money could’ve been spent much better somewhere else. Just a heads-up for anyone considering it.

I really loved this at first and got a lot of use out of it, but after about a year the stitching started coming loose. It’s still wearable, so I’m not totally disappointed, but for the price I expected it to hold up better. When I tried figuring out what to do about it, I kind of felt passed around and didn’t get much help, which made the whole thing more frustrating.

I just got it today the quick shipping is the first thing on my mind. It arrived way sooner than I thought it would, so I’m happy with the whole experience right now. Thanks!

I’m not sure if they were just really busy or what, but the replies were slow. It definitely made the whole experience a bit frustrating.

I was hoping this would feel softer, but after I washed it once, the fabric felt kind of rough to me. Maybe I’m just picky about texture, but it wasn’t as comfy as I expected

I’ve always liked the look of Lingua Franca pieces, at least from what I’ve seen and tried so far. The designs are simple but still have a little personality, and the colors seem easy to work into a normal wardrobe. It gives off that relaxed NYC feel without looking like it’s trying too hard.
I can’t say I’ve tested enough pieces to know how everything holds up long term, but my main hesitation is definitely the price. It feels a bit high for what it is, though the style does stand out more than a regular sweater, so I get the appeal.

I really wanted to love this because I like the brand’s message and the ethical angle, but after looking into it more, it just feels too expensive for what you’re actually getting. I also couldn’t find enough clear information to feel totally confident about the values they’re promoting, which was disappointing. I may reach out to customer service to ask for more details because the products are cute, but right now it doesn’t feel as values-first as I expected

I’ll admit I’m a bit biased toward stores that don’t make returns a headache, and this one handled it really well. The exchange went smoothly, with no unnecessary hassle.

I just went with my usual size, assuming it would be fine, and thankfully it was. It fits pretty much how I hoped — not tight, not baggy, just comfortable. The sleeves are a little long on me, but I kind of expected that since that happens a lot. Overall, sizing was easy and I didn’t have to deal with an exchange.

I got a sweatshirt from Lingua Franca and the embroidery is really pretty. It looks like someone actually took their time with it, not cheap or messy at all. There are maybe one or two tiny spots that aren’t totally perfect if you stare super close, but when I’m wearing it you can't even tell and it still looks great. The fabric feels nice too, soft and comfy. Shipping took a little longer than I thought it would, but overall I’m really happy with it.

I expected a lot better. The material feels cheap, the stitching is all over the place, and after wearing it just a couple of times, it already started falling apart. For what I paid, this thing is kind of a joke. Definitely disappointed.

The packaging was acceptable overall, but it looked a bit plain. It did the job, so no major complaints, but I was expecting something a little more polished or eye-catching.
