Hi All

I am after a pair od Brown leath knee lenght boots.

I´m a UK size 8 and I have fat calves!

I currently have a black pair from Clarks, a sued (sp) thigh leght pair (high heal) from dichman, and a black sued (SP) just below knee kitten heal pair.

BUT I need BROWN, or even purple something other than black to go with my blue leggins tunics, tights etc.

HELP

Clarks did these last year in a wide calf fitting, I'm sure they'll do them again this year...they're fab.

Crazy, how high is the heal?

I´d ideally like something that would go from casual to a little more dressy (i´m difficult I know)!

Take a look at the Duo website. I was recommended them by someone on here. They do different calf widths - marvellous!

I have fab grey ones from Deichmann (is that the place where you have some from already) but flat they were only £27.99 and are better in the rain then the tres expensive supposedly waterproof ones I did buy from Decathlon!

Duo are great you measure your calf at the widest bit so they are a perfect fit. My mum gets hers from there but I can't afford to so I get mine from very catalogue online and simply b as they do wide calf fittings. Or type into google "wide fit boots" and loads of sites come up.

Yes I meant Deichmann (Bad day)!

Do like the look of the Duo ones but they are pricy but then if you can live in them and they last then they would be good value.

I love Deichmann. Got two pairs of boots there in january for 12.99 and they are both SO comfy! But no brown ones.

Off to google diechmann.

Evans boots have quite wide calves.

OHHHH

What about these

Normally Diechmann fit me pretty well so hopefully they will fit fine.

Oh.

Should have said.

I´m don´t have huge calf. Just a bit about normal and annoyingly small ankles in comparison

I love Deichmann, so bloody annoying they have a store in my crappy hometown in Scotland, but my nearest is Westfield Stratford, but I am in Norwich (hey ho any excuse to spend money to dh's chagrin!!!!!). I love the brown ones, but they don't have many online really, I must go visit Westfield once you can actually get in the carparks again.

The Clarks ones have more of a casual heel I think Mummy, I wear mine during the day mainly
