Boots

[Nogoodwithgoodbyes]

I know it’s February so moving out of boots-season but I’d really appreciate any tips. I love knee-high rider or flatish boots that can be worn over skinny jeans or with dresses/skirts but I have disproportionately large calves, so they tend to bunch around the ankle and are tight on the calf or just don’t close: not a good look! I’m tall so I don’t want ones with a big heal and I’m not overweight, just chunky!

Any suggestions of where you got them or where I might start? I’ve trawled the web and have had more than a few embarrassing moments in shoe stores where the zip just wouldn’t go up!

I saw a lady on the street with boots elasticated on the back and leather on the front (no zip). I still regret not stopping to ask her where she got them.

Are Duo boots still a thing? I had two pairs which were v expensive but lasted 10 years or so.

Fly boots

Ok, thanks. I’ve never heard of Duo or Fly but I’ll investigate.

Simply Be do boots in different calf widths

Thanks. I had never heard of Simply Be either.

I just looked up Simply Be there and they've a great selection and good sizing too. Good tip, thanks. They're in Ireland but I'm sure they deliver.

Hotter had some nice ones I have brown and a black pair of rider style with elastic backs, but have a zip

Something like this

I saw these on QVC not long ago, only a size 4 left now.

Thanks all.

Those QVC ones are the exact ones I’m looking for! Pity there’s only a 4 left. I’m not surprised they sold fast.

The Clark's boots are all half price now in stores, only few sizes left, so be quick

Thanks for that @lindyloo57 I've been lusting after the Jenna Lace boots but couldnt really justify the price but with 50% off they're mine!

Thanks. 🤞
