I've seen them mentioned here but can't remember if anyone has them.

here

I love them but am not sure if they will fit my chunky ish calves. Also am quite long of leg so wondering how high they will go on my legs?

Any advice welcome. Thanks!

My calves are usually too chunky for DMs

I also think they're gorgeous but not sure they'd fit me either . Wish they would as I have wide feet and usually find DMs very comfortable.

I have other colours. They are not that wide of calf. Plenty wide enough for me but I have very slim calves. The only part of me that is slim unfortunately

They aren't knee high, more of a high calf length IYSWIM.

I love them, they are very comfy and look nice with skirts and dresses.

Thanks everyone - still not sure. I can just about do up my 'standard size' knee high boots at the moment but they are a bit tight. I think that these have elastic at the top which will maybe have a bit more give?

Guess I will have to try on a pair in RL to see if they will fit.

Can you let us know how you get on.
I've been dithering about these for a while.

I have an update - I went into Schuh today to try them on. I did get them up (just!) but they felt a bit tight over the top of my foot - so am still not sure. I had to put on one of their pop socks on as I had bare feet so I think I will go back in with some socks on and try them again to see.

I think that they will probably give quite a bit if I got them.

They were lovely though.
