Best women’s boots for wide calves, tried and tested for a comfortable fit

For a pair of boots that are comfortable, fashionable, winter-ready and can fit around your calves with ease, this pair from Yours is the undisputed champ. I have reached for these boots time and time again, for rainy trips to the pub and date nights. They slip on easily and, although they are very wide in the foot for me, I’ll never say no to a second pair of socks when the weather outside is frightful.

With a cleated sole, I reckon these boots will offer practicality when the icier weather rolls in. Meanwhile, on days when I need an extra layer, the elasticated back panel will help them to stretch around, without compromising on comfort.

I received many compliments about these boots, though, the most common question I got was “what colour are they?” While the brand says they’re a beige brown, I’d call them more greige, as they changed colour depending on the lighting. Whatever colour you want to call them, the versatile shade gave me more flexibility with styling. I also loved that the faux leather meant that, when the heavens did open, these boots were able to withstand a downpour. Plus, the chunky sole is bang on trend, while adding to comfort levels.

Again, the fit is perfect, and I had no trouble getting these on. Although they’re available in just sizes four to eight, I don’t think the fit on your calves will be an issue, as EEE is the only width choice available.

If it was possible to fall in love at first sight with a pair of boots, these were the ones that stole my heart. With that gorgeous leather smell straight out of the box and a rich chocolate-brown colour, these has me excited to get them on. Plus, thanks to Duo’s fit finder – which taught me how to properly measure my calves for the most accurate fit – they slipped on effortlessly. My calves felt cushioned and comfortable, and I had no issues with the zip.

With a block heel, platform sole and memory-foam insole, these boots meant I was able to spend a whole evening walking around when heading out for dinner – with no complaints about my feet hurting.

Considering the hefty price tag, you’ll want to make sure you get the size spot on. But, given the fact that these boots come in nine different shoe sizes and eight calf sizes, there’s no reason why you won’t be able to get the best fit.

I’ve long scoured every shop trying to find a decent pair of over-the-knee boots that don’t fall down. Until now, that has been a challenge but, thanks to Yours, my search is over.

For a start, this pair has a three-quarter zip, which made for an easy fit. To ensure I can dance the night away without worry, the boots also come with a tie fastening, so they never slip down. I also liked that, to some extent, I could adjust the fit on these to be over the knee or under, depending on how I felt.

Offering great quality, this is a pair I’ll turn to time and time again for nights out during the chillier months.

Having already been impressed by this brand, I had high hopes for the Haltham boots, and they did not disappoint. More of an everyday boot, these would look just as good at home and when wearing to the shops as for a bottomless brunch outfit. The suede fabric is soft to the touch and, inside, the memory-foam insole makes for a comfortable wear. They are a bit rigid around the heel, though, and I did have a tiny bit of rubbing at first, but this has eased with multiple wears.

Again, thanks to the brand’s fit finder, I had a seamless fit with these boots, and found they felt as comfortable with tights as when wearing jeans. Plus, as an extra bonus, they also come in petite, standard and tall heights, so your leg length is considered, too. They’re not cheap but these boots are worth every penny.
