On the look out for fat leg boots

Ms T, 3 October, 2008 at 16:30 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 12

I normally buy the pull on knee high suede effect boots from M&S due to my substantial calves but I'm a bit bored with them now and I'm looking for smarter leather boots but I just can't find any.

Does anyone know of any good shops/websites that cater for the larger of leg?

TIA

    I have Next wide leg ones on today and they fit fine but I don't really like the way they look- they're too fitted. I wish I had slim legs.

    I find River Island, Faith and some of Dune's boots to be quite good. My Dune ones have a zip but have a ribboned lace up bit at the top which means they can get a bit wider. None of them are big enough for me to squidge in my legs & jeans tho....and I'm only a size 10! I must have funny shaped calfs.

    PS I'll send you photees when I get official ones. Twas all wonderful!

    Oh was this done yesterday - I've been on my bed of sick for a few days so not paid much attention.

    Thanks anyway - I had a look in Next and Evans and I didn't see any I really liked so I'll have a nose on Duo.

    Evans are still getting new stock in - I looked on Tuesday - nilch - Wednesday got a pair. To be fair though I was being even more finickity - I wanted flats and I refused to pay hundreds of pounds for them!
