Biker Boots

Have fallen in love with some biker boots which are different to any I've had before. However even with leggings or skinny jeans they seen very big around the calf, are they supposed to be snug? Think I may have to return as although shoe size they fit there is a big gap around my calves.

Pic of how loose they are would help us decide

Looks fine to me, boots that length are generally fitted.

I think they look fine too. Some are more fitted and others are slightly loose. It depends upon what you like yourself. If you dont like them like that then try a different pair.

Thanks everyone. I usually buy ankle boots so it's not usually an issue as they go under jeans or wear ballet type shoes so these are very different. Would prefer them snug but don't think I'd find any to do that as have quite narrow legs at the bottom.

Ooh. Where are they from? I'm after a new pair of biker boots but am chunky of calf and struggling to find ones that fit.

Yes Davenot, are yours really snug or do you have the large gap at the top too?

Smile, had them from Very as easy to return if I don't like and they were on offer and cheapest site.

I've got fat ankles so mine are fairly snug but they are my current favorites for sure Smile

I'm not a fan of boots looking like wellies i.e. too loose on the calf. Unfortunately most above-ankle boots look like this on me, am not slim generally but do have very thin lower legs.

I find leg warmers or longer chunky socks ruched to sit just above the top of the boot help massively to fill the gap. But you must find a variety of outfits to wear them with and be happy with how they look, otherwise send them back and try a different style.
