What makes your boots so special?

Our boots are made using the highest quality materials by expert manufacturers in Portugal. Our boots are designed and crafted with obsessive attention to detail – from the overall fit to the finishing touches. Our entire collection of calf-fit boots is available in eight different calf sizes and we put just as much care, effort and attention into designing and crafting our ankle boots. We've been making boots since 1975 - and we think this year is our best yet. As the only brand in the world to offer a diverse size range of calf fitting boots, DuoBoots is at the forefront of making inclusive boots for everyone.

What calf sizes do your boots come in?

Our boots come in eight calf sizes, 30, 32, 35, 38, 41, 44, 47, and 50cm. Generally, our boots fit true to size, so we’d advise buying the size you usually wear. We have created a unique sizing tool to ensure your calf-fitting boots are the perfect fit. Forego the tape measure, our new DuoBelt™ will help determine your calf size using one of its seven notches. You can find more fit notes on our product pages, and you can contact us if you are unsure about your size.

My favorite style is no longer available, can I still order via email?

We produce in limited production runs which means from time to time we will be sold out in certain styles. If your desired size is out of stock you can simply sign up to back in stock notifications on the product page.

What's the ankle size of these boots?

The ankle opening of the boot is reflective of the last which it is made from. Our new collection was made using a revised last that pays greater attention to the ankle opening allowing for a more comfortable fit. The new last system was designed to offer more consistency amongst styles. In case you’re not familiar, a last is the shoe shape mold that determines the fit of the boot.

Which boots are best for wide calves?

We have a selection of boots that
are perfect for wider calves, so wear whatever makes you feel gorgeous. If
you’re particularly worried about the look of your calves choosing heeled wide
calf boots, or boots with a pointed toe can help elongate the calf. A black
leather wide fit boot can help to create a slimmer silhouette and is a timeless
look.  

What foot sizes do your boots and ankle boots come in?

Our boots and ankle boots start at a size EU35 (UK2) and go up to a size EU43 (UK10). With nine foot sizes and eight calf sizes we are unable to offer half sizes.
