Biker boots for those with fat calves

9 replies

Springiscoming20 · 31/10/2020 07:01

Any recommendations on where to get some good quality biker boots when I have really wide calves and normal boots aren’t wide enough on my lower calf please? I’ve tried simply be boots before but thought they were a little plastic and not great quality. I’d like some that are going to last me a while. Thank you

Dune Prestone boots are great - they've got zip and laces so easy to adjust for wider legs. Mine are very comfortable.

I’ve got the fattest calves ever but I’ve got some boots that I live in which I think were from Office - they’re not as tall as normal biker boots but taller than ankle boots. Similar to these but not as expensive s://www2.next.co.uk/style/st387649

I have had some nice Fly biker boots.

Check Duoboots.com.

Have you tried Evans? I find them to be really comfortable and good quality.
I ordered some from Simply be thinking they would be similar quality, but I agree with what you said, they were horrible and went straight back.

I’ve got wider feet and can’t even get my foot into Dune shoes. They work brilliantly for my friend with narrow feet and tiny legs, though.

If you find it problematic to do a boot up just above your ankles, have you tried plus size shoe brands? I think Evans and Curvissa are examples of those.

Barbour do great boots for wide calves.
