Recommendations for Knee high boots for the huge of calf

Hello all,I’m hoping someone can help recommend shops/sites for a pair of knee high boots to fit my calves. I’ve just been in M&S and their wide fit pair did not get up my leg and I don’t really know where else to try. I don’t mind a bit of a heel on them or flat.

many thanks in advance.

I have very wide calves and have just got some from Hush. All the reviews said they were too wide on the calf but just right for me! It’s trial and error in my experience, I look for places with free returns so I can easily send them back.

Try Yours, or Cotton traders

Fairfax and Favour do a variety of calf sizes. Pricey, but good quality and last forever.

J D Williams catalogue do wide calf boots, as do many other catalogues.

I have wide calves, not many boots fit but I tried the F&F sporting fit and they are OK!

Or Gabor do some which have adjustable straps like these which might be good for you?

Oh wow, thank you all you’ve given me a lot more options to look at than I actually thought would be possible.
Your recommendations are very much appreciated as I am currently trying to work on putting myself first/feeling good after years of various health (mental health and physical issues) and I am trying to get a few things to feel good in, boots being one of the “wants” I would like so begin with.

Thank you again.

Measure your widest part of your calf pand you will find, in catalogues anyway, they give the calf measurement .
I got a really nice pair brown knee high boots with a low heel. I have a 17 inch calf and these are just right.
Most boots in shops are 14 or 15 inch calf.

Try geox, they're my go-to! Look for the styles with an elasticated panel down the side
