Boots for thin calved women?

[spelmanlocks]

Does anyone know of a good brand of boots for ladies with thin calves? I love boots but I can never wear them because I can't find a pair where my legs won't be swimming in them.

I have this problem too. I've had success with the tall boots from Jessica Simpsons line. Not sure about other styles of boots though.

I have the same problem. Maybe I'll try the JS boots...

I havent found anything that worked yet :nono: I just stick with ankle boots

I have the same issue...
But I’ve noticed the more upscale designers shoes are more small calve friendly.

Yeah you are right, It looks like I have going to have to pay 300+ to gget a pair of tall boots that fit properly :ohwell:

I have the opposite problem. I tried on boots over the weekend and none would fit over my calves. I could not zip or pull them up over my calves. Is there a such thing as having calves that are too big?

Duo (http://www.duoboots.com/) make their boots in a wide range of calf sizes. Quite pricey though. Out of my price range anyway.

Otherwise, just try on lots and lots of boots from lots of different brands, you'll find your perfect pair eventually :)

The only boots I've had success with that fit like a glove are Gianmarco Lorenzi and Jimmy Choo. My Gianmarco's were very expensive, but I've had them going on 5 years and their still fashionable and look great.

I'm still searching for a pair that's reasonable in price lol.

You know, you can go to a shoe maker and get the calves cut so that it fits you properly. It costs about 40 bucks. No need to buy 300 dollar shoes when you can get your size and have it adjusted. The tailor does a get job too, you can't tell that the boot was altered. I used to go a place near the Marriot around times square. I think it was near 48th st, I know I got off either the 1 or 2 train. I can't remember.

This is the only pair I've found this season that fit a really skinny leg. My best friend has THE skinniest legs. These Kenneth Cole boots (http://www.kennethcole.com/scripts/shop/product.asp?pid=10031&cc=KWBOO&title=&pw=thumbnail&var=120430%20121166&srchtype=&srcharg=&size=0)fit her leg like a glove. They are made of some type of stretchy material and leather.

This is what I did! And it cost me exactly $40.

i have no calves and toothpick legs. lace up boots are good, and some steve madden and bronx boots. Although i have paid over $200 for them. haven't found anything cheaper that fits my legs. i still have to put an extra thick sock around leg.

I have the same problem.....I find that some styles of Enzo's and BCBGirls are made for smaller calved women.

Now this I never knew. I will definitely have to give this a try because I was in the mall today and nothing fit.

There flat boots are nice, I may get the black pair, not too bad in price especially since they use Italian leather and they are made to fit your calf exactly. Thanks for the link.

this is what i do

I see you're in the Atlanta area. What shoemaker did you use? I always used the tall, thick athletic socks & cut the feet out - made them into homemade leg warmers basically & that added the needed thickness to my calves to hold my boots up. Don't laugh - I didn't know about the shoemaker remedy. :perplexed

This is what I did! And it cost me exactly $40.

I've tried loads of shoe repair places and they all said they couldn't or wouldn't take in my boots. I also tried a tailor and a saddlers. Grrrr. :angry2:

I have only found 2 places in my area that will take in boots so far. All of the others say they can't/won't do that.
