I'm looking for boots to wear with dresses. The styles I like are mid-calf or higher, slouchy or riding boot, flat or with a low spool heel.
Well ha-bloody-ha I cannot wear these any more.
Now I need a flattish boot with a wide, rounded toe box to accommodate my prescription orthotics and my big toe that refuses to be pushed against the other toes, and laced at the ankles to hold my foot in position on those orthotics. It also needs to be wide enough to accommodate my chunky calves.
Does such a boot exist? Does a boot exist that will tick enough boxes for me to be able to wear it, even if I have to learn to like something different?
Oh, and I'd rather it not be a lovely, cosy, fleece-lined toe-toaster, which would be far too warm for me.
