Boots for Skinny calves

ViViDogWear · Kate Spade

Not sure what to suggest. I have a lot of knee high boots, but they all kind of vary. I would have to say my Burberry boots are the most snug. I would suggest the kind that doesn't even zip, but I'm not a fan of that stretchy pleather material.

Have you tried mid calf boots? I have a pair from Coach that are nice a fitted, and my calves are small -med.

I don't know what your budget is, but DUO custom-makes boots to fit your calves.

I also recently bought some boots by Rebels (style name Rally) that fit my skinny calves wonderfully. I don't know if the fit stays true across the brand, though, as the ones I bought are the only Rebel boots I've tried on.

I have found that certain styles of Frye run small - I know the paige ridding boot by frye runs so small in the calf that the suggested way to get it on is put a plastic bag over your leg to slide them in , then rip off the bag - so they must run small!!!!

I like Coach too - they fit slim

I also have pretty skinny calves and finding boots can be a pain. I think your best bet would be so seek out Italian made or get ones with stretch. Boot shopping is kind of like, jean shopping in that you have to try on a ton of pairs before you find the right ones for you. I have boots by Marc Jacobs, some lace-up Michael Kors, some obscure brand, and BCBG. I also recently found a pair from Max Studio that fit wonderfully.

I have tiny calves and went through this last year - I finally found some by Colin Stuart that fit perfectly.

Miz Mooz has a pretty slim shaft for slimmer calves. The ones I have do fit a bit snugger than my others.

If you have a good cobbler you can also have boots taken in.
