DUO Boots- gone down the pan?

Does anyone know?

I had a look on their website hoping to see new season's boots but nothing is showing when I click on the Boots tab.

Companies House shows them as 'dormant' so wondering is this is due to Covid and shop in Bath is shut or if they have folded.

Didn’t they change their name a bit back? 🤔

Mamette · 29/07/2020 21:29

I think Duo Boots is the new name.

JinglingHellsBells · 29/07/2020 21:32

Duo is the new name (or the old one reinvented!)

The other name was Muff and something Shock

The website is weird- there is nothing behind the banner ads but if you scroll down there are boots but “your basket is unavailable”.

Just looking at my emails and they haven’t emailed me since February which is unusual. Although it’s possible I unsubscribed in a fit of Covid-induced frugality but I don’t remember doing that.

They were Ted and Muffy then went back to being DUO under new owners.

Hmmm if I click on Boots it comes up with a tick box for sizes but clicking on them doesn't do anything and I can't see any boots.

Do you see boots here?

VelvetRibbon · 29/07/2020 21:39

Such a shame if they have gone down, although it wasn't the same since the terrible rebrand and then reversal, they pretty much doubled the prices. The sales used to be good for a better deal too. But they are the only place I know of that make attractive leather boots for my 'sturdy' calves Sad

JinglingHellsBells · 29/07/2020 21:40

Well, I can now see the boots! Weird. And they have an active facebook page with posts today.

Website works for me.

Temporary technical issues?

AuntieMarys · 29/07/2020 21:41

I got an email in May saying they had been saved from.administration

KingOfDogShite · 29/07/2020 21:46

Ted and Muffy was a dreadful name wasn’t it Confused

Jilsen do good wise leg boots. They are a Dutch company.

They officially closed down at the end of March just after lockdown. They had a farewell sale but then two months later they were back- maybe new investors? There are definitely trading. Try clearing your cache or opening the website in incognito mode.

Cross post. Just noticed it’s now working for you

Grumblyberries · 29/07/2020 22:06

Looks like they found a buyer - but I think the shop etc is still gone

I just bought from them the other day, everything seemed fine.

nancybotwinbloom · 30/07/2020 11:44

I really fancy a pair of the huntsman boots.

Does anyone know of any discount codes I should really be saving?

I have a pair of Huntsman boots from 10 years ago when they were called Florence. Still lovely.

DuoBoots is back! While the stores are not longer, you can find them at www.duoboots.com. They offer booties in standard and wide fit as well as tall boots with up to 11 calf sizes.

I'm glad they're back, I still wear a pair of their boots that I bought ten years ago. They're beginning to look a little tired but have been fantastic.
