Wide Calf Wellies

7 replies

As I turn to think of Autumn, I need some new wellies but I have always had a problem getting them to fit my calves

I have 48cm so with socks 50cm and I'm a size 7 uk

Needed for dog walking, pitch side parenting at the endless clubs etc in the rain. Was looking at neoprene lined etc for warmth

Any ideas- Im not bothered about cost as long as they're right

I have some Aigle Aiglentines that work with my wide calves. Still going after about 6 years. If money was no object I'd be getting some zip up Le Chameaus.

Stay away from Hunter as they've gone downhill in quality and maybe actually gone bust now.

Dunlop blizzards. About £40 on Amazon. Warm, long and wide.

If you search wide calf wellies on Amazon there's lots to choose from

Jileon are the only ones I’ve ever gotten to fit me, they’re great

My mum has Jileon which she loves. I ordered some last year and they were actually too big! Their customer service was fantastic - I had ordered the wrong size welly socks and the packer noticed and phoned me to check. Return was easy too.
My mum then gave me her Le Chameau zip up ones, they are mens as she found them wider. They fit me perfectly. She gave them to me as they are too heavy for her and hurt her hip on long walks. I don't have that problem with them, I love them. Although could have never afforded to buy them myself!

I have very large calves and wide feet too, Jileon wellies are the only ones I found that fit. They have various styles, and although more expensive than generic wellies I think they're worth every penny.

I have some Barbour Wilton ankle wellies they are perfect for my rainy dog walks it's more like a Chelsea boot so I can get away with wearing them to the shops and theres lots of colours. I've got the stone ones
