Boots for wide calves?

sm23 · March 2011

Someone posted a link to a site that sold these. I got a really cute pair of boots online and can't get them over my calves :-/ Ideas for where to find a replacement?

I bought a pair of Annie boots from Endless last year and they fit over my GIANT calves (I say that with sarcasm...they aren't that big, but apparently I have to get wide calf boots!). They're really reasonable (but not real leather, if you are looking for that)

Can I b!tch for a second though? My calves aren't abnormally huge (those of you who've met me in person can argue to the contrary if you wish), and all the reviews I saw of the boots I bought actually said they run wide around the calves and there was plenty of room to tuck in jeans. The measurement listed for the calf area is supposedly 2 inches more than what my calves measure (I checked).

So why the hell can't I fit them over my apparently ginormous calves?? Crying I love these boots, stared at them for months and finally got the money together to buy them... then they don't fit AND make me feel fat. Boo.

I've never met you in person (which must be rectified) but I can't imagine your calves are huge. You're definitely not fat. Boots are funky with fit. It's too bad the measurement chart was off. Are they returnable? If so, I would try to get a refund if the chart was inaccurate. Anyway, GL!
