Help with boots for skinny calves

I have been on the hunt for brown boots that go up to my knee. The problem is I have very skinny calves & everything I try on has at least a 2 inch gap at the top. I did a google search & found one company that sells in different widths but they were Chat Icon. Any suggestions on where I can find them that isn't gonna break the bank?

Try dsw
I went there and asked a girl and she knew what brands typically had narrow calves. I lucked out and got a pair for $150 I think

or buy what you like and take them to a shoe maker to see if he can take it in to fit you better

I have some Michael Kors boots and thouh I do not have wide calves at all they are very snug in the calf.
maybe that brand runs narrower?
It could be just the style though

I agree with Michael Kors boots. I have the Charm Riding Boots and I find that they definitely run smaller in the calf area than other boots...they're the only boots that don't have a gap for me.

They are on the pricey side, but I got a pretty good deal on mine at Macy's during their Friends and Family Sale.

Yes and Bloomingdale's runs some sales on them at times and they also do the friends and family occasionally

Many of the Steve Madden boots have narrow circumferences. A few are even listed as 10". Huh? That is like the size of child's calf. I always look for a 13-14" circumference. Perfect for my small(ish) calves.
