Boots loose around the ankle?

[NantucketNightbird]

Are Chelsea boots usually loose around the ankle? I've just received these boots and whilst they are beautiful (more so than the picture). They are quite loose around the ankle. I've never had this style boot before so unsure if that's just how they are

Oops forgot the picture

Yes I think they are looser than most boots but I have skinny ankles so all boots are loose on my.

I do have some Chelsea boots with the elastic panel and they are much tighter though.

I had this problem yesterday when shopping for some boots, found a lovely pair from dune , Chelsea boot style, but when I tried them on they were very wide around my ankle. It was worse when looking from the side. Loved the look of them on the stand but just looked silly when I put them on. Just gonna keep looking.

I started a thread about this the other day, I was trying on winter boots and they all came up huge around my ankle. I asked the shop assistant and he said it was the style this season and they're designed to be worn with skinny jeans.
