Love gorgeous boots but have wide calf sizing issues? Your search is over.

I am a boot fanatic who has come to realize that finding the right pair of knee high boots is harder for some of us than others, whether we've got scrawny or wide calf issues. Most knee high boots are sized at a 14 to 15 inch circumference, which just does not work for the thinner or fuller calved. Especially if you have calves under 12 inches or over 17 inches around, finding cute boots can be a real hassle.

In this lens I focus on the extra wide calf challenge. The good news is that there are tons of super cute extra wide calf boots available online, and most of them are affordably priced, to boot! (ouch, I know -- I had to say it)

Here, my top 10 extra wide calf boots -- boots with over a 17 inch calf circumference.

Torrid Lucy Extra Wide Calf Boots

Torrid Plus Size CUSTOMER FAVORITE Lucy Black Wedge Boot (Wide Width)

Amazon Price: (as of 05/30/2012)

Torrid is the hero of this page, with an incredibly cute range of extra wide calf boots, all priced under $75 as of November 2011. It's easy to see why the Lucy is a customer favorite. Whereas a 4-inch heel might be unthinkable as a stilleto, as a wedge it's doable for many. Elongate the leg in relative comfort -- and miles of style.
Calf circumference: 17.6 tinches to 19.6 inches, depending on size ordered

I had an extra wide calf once, he couldn't get through the barn door and I had to build a tent for him! ha! Blessed.

Love the boots and you are so right about how hard it is to find boots, my legs aren't that big, but I'm short so they're sort of compacted and a good fit is so hard to find that I normally stick to ankle boots, but I have one cute knee length pair. Great lens.
