The Pitch

Tom Hunt, Luke Shipley, Joe Hollingworth walked into the Den in 2015 with a fashion leggings for men. They were asking for £20,000 in exchange for 20% of the business.

Despite their best efforts, the pitch didn’t convince the Dragons to open their wallets.

The Deal

No deal was made. The Dragons weren’t persuaded to invest, and Tom Hunt, Luke Shipley, Joe Hollingworth left the Den without backing.

What Happened After the Show

sTitch Leggings did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2019, some 4 years after the pitch.

This is not an unusual outcome. The majority of businesses that appear on Dragons’ Den, deal or no deal, don’t make it in the long run. The show can provide a platform and capital, but it can’t substitute for a sustainable business model.

Is sTitch Leggings Still in Business?

No. sTitch Leggings is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
