Summary

The Reddit community is broadly positive about Rhone, praising the durability, comfort, and material quality of their athletic and athleisure clothing. Most users report their pieces holding up well over multiple years with regular washing. The main caveats are the premium price point, fit issues for taller or narrower body types, and some concern about potential quality changes over time — plus a notable controversy around a deceptive Reddit AMA the brand ran.

Verdict

Rhone earns genuine praise for durability and quality over multiple years of use, but the high price, limited sales, fit limitations for taller builds, and a documented brand integrity incident make it a qualified rather than unconditional recommendation.

What people love

Users consistently praise Rhone's fabric quality, comfort, and longevity, with multiple people reporting 3–7 years of regular use without deterioration. The brand is frequently recommended alongside Lululemon and Vuori as a top-tier men's athletic and casual wear option.

  • Shirts, shorts, and pants reported lasting 3–7 years with regular washing
  • Fabric described as soft, high-quality, and near-bulletproof
  • Boxer briefs frequently called the best underwear users have ever worn
  • Commuter and casual pants praised for comfort and slight stretch
  • Zero branding on some styles appreciated for low-key aesthetic
  • Fast-drying synthetic fabrics hold up well without dryer use

What people criticize

The most consistent criticism is the high price, with users noting Rhone rarely runs sales. Fit issues for tall or narrow builds come up repeatedly, and there is a credibility concern after the brand was caught staging a fake AMA on Reddit.

  • Premium pricing with infrequent sales makes it hard to justify
  • Shirts too short for men over 6'2" in some users' experience
  • Fit not ideal for tall, narrow body types
  • Brand staged a fake Reddit AMA with planted questions and inflated engagement metrics
  • Some concern that current product offerings may differ in material from older versions

What people are saying

One highly upvoted commenter warned that when you find a brand making great clothes, you should stock up before they get acquired or decline — and named Rhone as one of their current go-to brands alongside Vuori.
A user who has owned multiple Rhone shirts and shorts for around seven years said they still look and feel like new after weekly washing and hang drying.
Someone noted that Rhone ran a Reddit AMA where they only answered questions planted by their own fake accounts, and then posted a doctored screenshot to Instagram showing inflated engagement.
A commenter described the Rhone Reign shirt as the best shirt they had ever tried on, but was waiting for a sale before committing to a purchase given the price.
