I'm planning to have the Nordstrom cobbler take in the shaft of some tall boots and I'm really nervous they might get ruined. Nice to have some comfort that this is a do-able alteration. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/heres-something-for-those-needing-boots-to-fit-smaller-calves#post-766316 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 19:27:58 +0000 rachylou 766316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can't watch this from work... but I want to see this one. The bane of my existence solved?!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/heres-something-for-those-needing-boots-to-fit-smaller-calves#post-766197 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 17:34:26 +0000 rae 766197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very fab! Most things I'd read said that cobblers can only take in a pair of boots if they have a full zipper closure. This proves them completely wrong, I'd say! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/heres-something-for-those-needing-boots-to-fit-smaller-calves#post-766189 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 17:28:30 +0000 Sara L. 766189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I recently found a shoe/boot guy to modfiy a pair of boots to fit closer at the calf but he refused to cut down another pair that comes up too high on my leg. Maybe I'll look for someone else to get a second opinion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/heres-something-for-those-needing-boots-to-fit-smaller-calves#post-766120 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 16:36:10 +0000 danza.armonia 766120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for a great video! It doesn't look too hard. Have you had any luck with getting a cobbler to do an alteration like this? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/heres-something-for-those-needing-boots-to-fit-smaller-calves#post-765911 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 03:37:26 +0000 Julie 765911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I found this little video on Youtube about altering boots to make the shafts a smaller diameter. It could also be used for those who want to fit a slightly too tall boot that fits well everywhere except the very top.</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8m-Z4Wdy1Ps&#038;feature=related" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v.....re=related</a></p> <p>Any good cobbler should be able to work from this video. If not run to another.</p> <p>Cheers</p> <p>Julie </p>
