Knee high brown leather boots

12 replies

I appear to be searching for the Holy grail in trying to find a pair of knee high brown leather boots that will fit both my foot and my calves.

I love Bareback Hudson knee high ones but sadly the standard calf was too tight and the wider was too wide and felt like a welly boot on. I was so sad they didn't fit as the quality was excellent.

I have just received a pair of Clarks Cologne Up boots which actually fit hurrah! but the zip is far too weak and is open ending down the length not from the top iykwim

Does anyone know of any decent quality boots that I could wear with dresses/skirts and over skinny jeans, with a bit of a heel and a more rugged style sole, similar to the link below

If you like the clarks ones, take them to a place like Timpsons and they can replace the zip for you to a stronger + longer one

Duo boots come in multiple widths. I have big legs and they fit really well.

@xmasdealhunter I don't like them enough to spend more money on them tbh. The leather is very thin and they don't feel of very good quality. Little things, but the loops the buckles go through are a bit twisted and not finished nicely.

@PaintDecisions I have had some Duo boots before, and if they still made the same one I'd get them again, but sadly I haven't liked any of their current range, especially at the price they are now.

I have found a pair funnily enough on Bareback boots website, but they are sold out in my size. I'm just in contact with them to see what would fit either side of it, but they are the Lucianna range. They have a half zip half gusset side with buckles to adjust. I may have to go larger and get an insole but I'll see what they say

I have a brown and a black pair from Dune. I have muscly calves and these fit even over my jeans .

Sorry for jumping in but what will you be wearing the boots with?

I have a gorgeous brown pair of flat heeled boots sitting in a cupboard and haven’t got a clue how to style them!

Penelope Chilvers, but they are expensive.

Those are GORGEOUS

I've just got a pair of Moda in Pelle Harpette boots, comfy as anything and fit really well - can't attach pics on the app

What about Fairfax and Favour ? They do 3 different fits

longtompot · 05/02/2025 22:25

@bellsbuss they are gorgeous but sadly over my highest budget. Maybe one day...

Ive gone ahead and bought the other Bareback boots, so will see how they fit. Thankfully they do free returns and exchanges
