I have a problem buying boots. I would love to have a pair of knee high boots but I can't find any that fit around my calves. I even have a problem zipping the shorter ones. I am not overweight, just blessed with particularly muscular legs.

I sho feel u on that one. I've found some at many different places. Payless Shoe Store, Shoe Carnival, FamousFootwear.com & DuoBoots.com. The site duoboots tells u how to measure & u shop by ur measurements so u know they will fit & they have several different styles to choose from. The only thing is the business is based in the United Kingdom. Just so long as u don't mind ordering internationally, it's all good. Many people have reservations about doing that, I used too but I work for UPS & used to handle international packages & I've become alot more trustworthy when it comes to ordering internationally.

You could try Lane Bryant. Yes, it's a plus size store, but they probably have the knee-high boots that are extra wide around the top since the store caters to bigger women. Hope this helps. :)

u need to buy the stretch kneehigh boots. The upper part of the boot is made from manmade materials that strecth. Check ebay, they have them. I bought a wicked pair on ebay with a 4" stilletto heel, luv them.

I feel your pain. Many stores will "stretch" the boots for you on a stretching machine. I don't know the technical term for it but I have had some boots of mine stretched, and it has worked pretty well. Or you could try your local shoe repair.

I have the exact same problem! I once found some boots that had a stretchy type top that fit.....anything that isn't stretchy is too small though. I like my calfs...but yep....finding boots sure does suck!

I have big calves and what I do is take my boots to the shoe repair shop and have them sew elastic up the inside.

the best is www.duoboots.com in the UK. they do semi custom made and you can select the calf size for a perfect fit.
