Tall people- boots advice please

[bronze]

I really really want some nice brown boots.
I've spoken to clarks and their regular fit should fit my calves but I'm unsure if the boots will come up high enough
I'm just over 5ft 11 (though I swear I'm shrinking)

The three pairs I like the style of are lan key
makes me think they should fit tall people if theyre lanky

and
key word

I think I like lan key style best but keyword look like they have longer legs. Not so sure I want heels that high though.

Which would you go for if you were me?

I think Long Tall Sally do boots as well - hang on, will look.

OH, none on the site atm though. Worth keeping an eye out, I guess. Sorry.

ltss boots are too wide in the calf for me.

Hobbs do nice long boots and have some fab ones in their sale.

Of the ones you're looking at, I like the Lan Key ones best, they look robust but still elegant.

I have exactly the same problem as you Bronze although I'm not quite as tall. I've tried on the lan key boots in Clarks and they're not long enough for me although they're a reasonable fit around my calves (which are on the skinny side).
I'd say they're 2-3" shorter than I'd ideally like them to be.
I haven't tried on the others so can't help with them.

I'll be watching this thread with interest!

Have you tried:

www.duoboots.com/

Highly recommended. I am 5 foot ten BTW.

Have you tried www.tallgirls.co.uk/ ? I've never bought their shoes but had some good yoga trousers from them once.

duoboots arent long enough

I spent a fortune last year trying on boots and sending them back. Could have bought a pair of boots with the postage.

I've ordered three pairs of clarks ones and then I'll get dh to take them to the store if they dont fit

tallgirls start at size 8 so too big

thanks people keep the ideas coming
