Best welly brand for slim calves?

8 replies

I have slim calves and ankles so some wellies can look ridiculous and flap about.

I'm looking for knee length rather than ankle/mid calf.
TIA.

Hunter for slim calves. Or, if you have small enough, slim enough feet, buy kids full length ones. I have kids ones for my short ones. You can buy up to adult size 8 in kids boots online in some places.

Le Chameau. They're a bit pricey, but SO comfortable and long lasting. I have slim ankles and legs and the knee-high ones fit me perfectly, with just enough space for socks and trousers tucked in.

I'd never thought about that DS that's a good idea, though I'm not sure the children's ones would be long enough.

Thanks, I haven't come across Le Chameau - will check them out.

Wedge Wellies are good and I have extremely skinny legs

Tiny calves and swear by Aigle here. Worth the investment, super warm and last forever.

Ooh more welly brands I've never heard of! Thanks both.

I second the vote for Aigle. Really comfy, not too much space round the leg, which I found a bit annoying with my previous wellies(hunters). Also the footbed is super comfortable!

Yes Tyrannosaur you're so right and I didn't mention it - I walk (literally) miles and miles in my Aigles and they are so comfortable and supportive.
