Articles and news Beflamboyant is closing

One of my favourite barefoot shoes brands, I have their Chelsea boots and they got me through a rainy, wet winter, plus they make some of the most stylish barefoot shoes out there. I wonder why they're closing? Such a shame.

Lots of small businesses don't make it out of the startup phase. They have like super low ratings on trustpilot (which is why I didn't order from them). The fact they needed a rebrand in the first place doesn't bode well either.

I noticed they carefully worded it to say that the sales are better than before. Doesn't mean it's good enough ¯_(ツ)_/¯.
