Boots for large Calves: Help me pick!!

Lee Hovey

So if you follow my blog, you know how hard I have been searching for more pairs of boots that fit my large calves. I current have 2 pairs of black (one slouchy, one heeled) that I love, but they are from Payless, so I anticipate them not lasting. So I am searching for some better quality boots to get me through winter, especially brown.

I am interested in a more edgy, casual style boot as you will probably be able to tell from my choices so far. I bought 2 pairs of classic low heeled boots last year, and I never wore them. I felt they were too conservative for me, so I gave them to my old sis who loves them.

I have already gone through a couple different orders of boots that didn't work, so I am trying to decide which pair I should try next. So of the ones below, which is your favorite for me!

I've had my eye on those Timberlands for a while, and I like the Rieker's for black.

Thanks Chewy! Yeah I like the styles of both, but I would prefer the Rieker's in brown, and the Tims in more of a cognac leather.

You should try Naturalizers! They have really great styles now, and are very comfortable. Here is a link:

I like the Riekers, the Clarks and the Fitzwell for a sleek look, and the both the Naturalizers for visual interest.

Athleticlyflat: I do like a couple naturalizer styles, but I have been shopping for them on 3rd party sites, because Naturalizer doesn't provide calf circumference measurements on their site. Which is a HUGE pet peeve of mine!!! Very frustrating...

Germenta, you picked my 3 favorites as well! :) I almost bought the first ones and the clarks, but I can't find them in my size in brown. :(

Louise... those seem to be the most popular!
