Does anyone know if this is true?? Re: Knee High boots for big calve women

If you find a pair of zipper-style knee-highs that you love so much but which don't fit properly, take them to a shoemaker. They can always add a little bit of leather to your boots to help with the zipper.

I think you can have the zipper taken out a bit. But they do have knee high boots with the zippers but there is a bit of elastic stretch material built into the leather that expands a bit when u wear them.

I always get the pull up ones, I do not like ones with the zipper for that reason...the pull up ones hug your legs and are very comfy....

Don't forget that Ann Taylor, AT Loft and J Crew offer many of their styles with wide calf. I have a few pairs and they are so nice and comfy and I have large calves.

I've never hear of having them made bigger, but I've heard of people having them taken in.

BTW, there was a thread the other day of boots for wide calves.


Also I've noticed some websites list the circumfrence of the boot--I'm actually going to measure! Chat Icon

just HATE the idea of spending over $150 for a pair of boots and then additional $$ to have them taken in. my calves are around 12" so i always make sure to check the cirfumference of the shaft when buying online. 99% of the time, zappos lists the info.
