boot calf size question
Permalink Closed


My beautiful Rocket Dog riding boots arrived yesterday and they are too big in the calves cry  Is it possible to take the calves in?  There is a shoe repair store in the town where I work and I thought I would go by during lunch and ask.  I just wanted to ask you girls first so that if it wasn't, the guy wouldn't think I was crazy.

What style were your boots?
I went by during lunch and did not take them with me because I just wanted to be sure it could be done. He said he had done it before but it would depend on the style of boot. I hope he can do mine. He only charges $10smile.gif

OMG REALLY??! Boots are almost always too buggy in my ankles/calves. This is wonderful news!

Yeah, the guy just measured my calves and custom fit them to me. I don't bother unless they are really big.

Bloomie, the ones I got done were ones that zipped up the side. They had a seam on the back and I can't remember if they had one on the side. But I would imagine that is what would determine if he could do them or not, depending on where the seam is and how much needs taken up. HTH!
