It took a lot of boot trial and error for me to figure out that I have wide calves. They look totally proportionate to my body, so to be honest, I was definitely averse to admitting I needed ~special~ boots to accommodate my legs. Now that I’ve tried some of the best wide-calf boots in the game, I feel silly for ever being insecure.
All bodies are different, and you should buy what fits and what you feel great in, no matter what the label says! Now, all of my knee-high and over-the-knee boots come from the wide calf section, and honestly? I’m able to buy sooo many more boots now, which is any shopaholic’s true happy ending.
I will say this, though—it can be hard to find wide-calf boots that aren’t, well, fugly. I’ve almost purchased a lot of wide calf boots I would’ve never normally looked at style-wise, solely because they were the only ones offered by a particular brand or in a certain store that I knew would fit. Now, I’ve made it my personal mission to find actually-stylish wide calf boots for my wide-calved fashionistas and I’m seriously obsessed with all of the boots on the list below. Like, I ordered a lot of shoes as I wrote this.
If you’re looking for wide-calf boots that will last you a lifetime, investing in a pricy pair from a brand like Good American is a great idea. If you’re on the hunt for under-$200 styles, from over-the-knee going-out boots to chic croc or suede, brands like Journee Collective and Naturalizer should be your new go-to.
Rather than keep telling you how many cute pairs of wide calf boots exist, I’d prefer to show you below. Read on for nine stylish boots to rock this fall and winter, all of which will definitely fit with no stressful try-on sesh required.
