Thicker Calves

[thestarsfall]

I have always had problems trying to find any tall boots...I have thicker calves (and generally shorter legs so they look even stumpier than they are at times...) so the ones that just are supposed to be loose and whatever are too tight and the ones that are supposed to be tight do not fit at all...

To get into any of the taller boots I have to buy 2 sizes bigger...but then my feet slide around..

problem yes?

anyways...anyone have thoughts on a solution?

Aerosoles has started to sell cute boots with a hidden stretch panel in the top of the calf to give way to bigger calves. I looked it up because I have the same problem.

I've the same problem haha. I find that Nine West boots run slightly bigger in the calf area & have a stretch panel too. Definitely check out their boots. I just bought their "Botamy" & it's the perfect pointy toe stiletto boot. HTH!

On zappos, there is a brand called Fitzwell. They are awesome for the ladies with bigger calves.

agree a million times over, this is why I have knee high boots finally. Don't give up! You may also want to look into boots for wider feet b/c usually you wear thick socks anyway with boots and then you get the benefit of the extra calf room =)

I have the same problem since I do a lot of bike and gym. It depends on the brands. Some fit perfectly, other I just CANT zip up...

sigh...
