Beautiful boots, shipped and received faster than ordering something from Amazon. I ordered a half size up thinking I would need more room for thick socks but definitely order your regular size. Easy... See more

Unreasonable customer service

I ordered a pair of boots to replace the pair I bought 8 years ago, and emailed to ask if the sizing was still the same because I wasn't going to be able to return them within two weeks as I was out of the UK. Had a friendly exchange with a DuoBoots customer service staff member and was assured the sizing was still the same and I could go ahead and order the same size again. When the boots arrived they were a whole size too small. And because I only opened the box after the two weeks grace period, they refused to let me return them. Really shocking customer care when I had specifically asked if the sizing was still the same and said I wouldn't be able to return the boots in time. I had read all the bad reviews, and should rather have bought boots elsewhere.

Over a month and still no boots! Poor performance.

Ordered a pair of suede boots October 27th. Paid in full £195. Received an email November 2nd advising “slight delay” to order. It’s now November 24th, no update and no boots. Rang CS over a week ago, fobbed off with “production issues” and “available around the third week to the end of November”. Very poor communication and company shouldn’t be taking money if goods aren’t available to ship. Not likely to be coming back for more.... I have bought several pairs from this company when it was originally Duoboots and was very impressed. Bought a pair when changed to Tedand Muffy and the quality was shocking in comparison, so have avoided. Saw they had returned to being Duoboots, so thought I would try again... NOT impressed!

I love my new boots!

I am obsessed with boots, I crave autumn so that I can justify buying at least one new pair of boots, I have spent hours trawling the internet and trudging through city streets, then I discovered Ted & Muffy/DuoBoots. My dream boots! ❤️ I decided on the ‘Marvel’ as they are like no other style I have previously owned, stunning knee highs in tan with a sassy lace-up, they fit perfectly, manufactured with quality, soft leather and as close to a bespoke boot with a variety of calf sizes available.
I contacted customer services as I ordered the incorrect calf size initially, and as I only live pretty locally I returned by hand and collected my new pair from Head Office, where I found the staff to be very efficient & friendly. Thank you!
Maybe I’ll get another pair in my Christmas stocking...🧚‍♀️

Different colours from each other

After a week of wearing my new boots they were different colours. I was told to return for inspection only to be contacted telling me it was normal, and I should polish them with black then cream polish everyday to even out the colour (they are brown boots!). I now have boots less than a month old which look ridiculous. Even if I do polish each day, by the end of the day they are different colours again!

A company that does not care about it's customers

I purchased one pair of boots which were too big. They do not do exchanges so i had to return one pair and place a new order for a smaller pair and pay again for postage. The delivery charge was very expensive (£14) and also i had to pay for returns (£4.49). So a total of £32.49 on postage so far. Also you only have the option of CollectPlus to make returns. This also shows a complete disregard for their customers as there the drop off points are few and far between. My advice is try to find your winter boots elsewhere.

Poor Quality, Ruined After 5 Months

I’m really disappointed with the boots I purchased 2 years ago. After wearing them for a couple of months the heels started to wear down, I might consider this to be normal wear and tear. However the second autumn of wearing them one of the boot uppers has completely separated from the sole. When contacting customer services for what is very clearly a defect - no boot should do this after a total of approx. 5 - 6 months of wearing them (especially boots that cost £230), I was told to send them in for inspection.

Instead of understanding that the boot must clearly have a fault, I was told that if they are deemed faulty the repair would be undertaken, however if deemed normal wear and tear, I would need to pay for the repair which “isn’t cheap”, if I chose not to go through with the repair I would need to pay for postage to send the boots back to me.

They are unable to confirm from the clear photos I sent that there is very clearly a problem that should not have occurred from walking around inside and outside on normal terrain. Considering this has only happened to one boot, clearly there is a problem. The boot is not fit for purpose.

I’m mostly disappointed as I had a great experience in the shop and the reason for investing in such a pricey pair of boots was because they were meant to be an investment - I was told they are of a very high quality and I will be able to wear them for years to come - I think not.

When asking what the price was for the repair (should they not take responsibility for their manufacturing fault) they sent a price list for various repairs - it will cost me £170 to have them repaired. That’s 74% of the cost of a new pair of boots!! That being said, there are also multiple areas that have not kept their black dye colour, they have faded into a blue tone.

I don’t know if I got a bad batch or perhaps my boots shouldn’t have passed quality control. To be honest, if I could send them back for a refund I would, because overall the boots are nowhere near the quality they should be. I hope they are able to resolve this how I would expect a high end reputable company to do.

Poor quality

Poor quality. For this amount of money it would be expected that the manufacturer uses best glues, do some stitches and put some pins in their shoes. After two years of having them and carefully storing them in a box and after just 15 times of wearing them, the sole came of and they started to fall apart. Not happy at all!
Now they renamed back to Duo Boots.

Charges for postage and returns

The company produces some nice shoes, but they are very expensive for what they are. On top of that they charge £5 delivery and £4.50 to return. You cannot return online items to their London store. In other words it's a £9.50 penalty if shoes don't fit. Complete rip off in this day and age.

Shoddy product and service

I would give no stars if possible. Over the years I've bought a few pairs of boots from Duo. I've generally been happy but this year I am shocked at the way they treat customers. Bought a pair of £185 boots two months ago. Was thrilled to have them in time for the cold weather. The first time I wore them in rain, one boot leaked. I took them straight back and was told that I would have a repaired pair in "at most" two weeks. This worried me as winter was starting but I thought I could wait two weeks. Four weeks later after hassling and pestering Duo I finally got the boots back in the same condition except with some glue splodged where the fault was. Water mark on the leather was still there. And they assured me I would get them back "as good as new". Now they are being obstructive about a refund unless I send the boots back or go back to the store at great inconvenience. It's now Christmas and I have no winter boots. Do not shop with Duo!

Expensive

Maybe the quality of danish products are better?! Have had a pair of shoes with plastic heels and laces that will not tie. And bronze sandals with no bronce some places after a few weeks and full of cracks in the leather. Have ordered shoes that wasn't the correct size. It said 2 but they must have been size 1 and their refund system sucks have once waited over a month for my money.

Heel only lasted 1 month of light wear

For boots that cost £185 you expect the heel to last longer than one month. The material is so soft any small stones on the pavement gets stuck and the heel has also completely worn away. DUO's comment is that this is normal??!!

Faulty boots and I am expected to pay for repair

I ordered some boots from Duo, only for them to split 4 weeks later. They are asking for me to pay for the repair and postage for these boots. I find that unacceptable for the price of the boots. I would not recommend them. Quality boots should NOT split in 4 weeks and a consumer should not be expected to cover the cost of the repair.
