Biker style boots

Hi -

I have fallen in love with these but can't get them in my size so have wasted hours googling but can find nothing similar. Am keen for something midcalf, rather than ankle & style wise I prefer them not to be too biker-ey (if that makes sense?). So not too many buckles etc. I don't mind if black or brown but prefer leather to a mix of leather and suede (though will consider anything at the moment!). I also have fairly skinny ankles/calves so need something that isn't too wide at the ankle else I look like am wearing cut of wellies!

So, you can see I am fussy (blame it on pregnancy hormones!) but would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks in advance!

They would be pretty much ideal if they were a teensy bit longer! I've tried on ones that length which were v similar and because they flare out towards the opening (the Kew ones have a buckle so you can tighten them in) they just flapped around my calves Blush. Sorry - I warned you I was fussy! Thanks for trying though!

Have you tried looking at the childrens sections i.e. full length on kids might be the mid height your looking for ? probably be cheaper as well as no VAT on kids shoes.

from next these were in the childrens section

reliablemillipede & Magicmayhem - that is a genius idea! And I really like the Next ones (especially as they're less than half the price of ones I have liked less!). I shall start checking kids section but will definitely nip past Next on the way home tomorrow..
