I wouldn't risk it :( I have slim calves (shame about my arse!) and I can just about zip mine up over my skinny jeans. They do have a tiny bit of elastic on the inside part but it doesn't stretch much and although there's buckles on the outside of the boot, I'd say they're more for show than anything. It's a shame as they're really comfy.

Boo :( but as you say, at least you've not wasted your money.

Could you try some on maybe? I have two pairs and the others are a bit looser than the mynds, they're not as high though maybe that's why. The style is Frazer Freed if thats any help, my Internet is playing up tonight so I can't link, sorry.

I will trysomeon when I go into town, but tbh i have wide calves and even if i zipped them up they would start to do that thing were they slide down your leg and go baggy round the ankle, thereby ruining the very appearance of the boots

Thank goodness for Dr Martens Juney boots!

(instead, I bought dssome shoes in the sale from charles clinkards Smile)
