I loved Angie's recent post about narrow calf boots, but am still looking for more suggestions:

I already have a couple of nice narrow calf heeled boots, but now I'm looking for a pair of flat boots for MOTG. I'm having a heck of a time finding something because I'm finding that the online specs are all over the place. I've checked Zappos, Nordstrom, Piperlime and Endless. Zappos' search feature is pretty good because you can narrow by circumference and shaft height, but Nordstrom and Endless have a lot of regular calf boots mixed in when you search for narrow calf boots. For example, I found a boot called "Ariat York" that was listed as "Narrow calf--12 inches" on Nordstrom, but on Zappos and Endless they are listed as 15 inch circumference.

I've also searched the archives here for the narrow calf boot threads but a lot of them have mainly brand recommendations but not always the specific model. For example, Miz Mooz is often mentioned as a good narrow calf brand but all the ones I've checked are listed as 14-15 inch circumference. I tried the Vaneli Riwana that were suggested in Angie's post but the ankles were too baggy. I also tried Trouve Skylar but the leather was very shiny and cheap looking. The only ones I've found so far that might work are the Frye Melissa Lace-ups but they are $$$$. It might be worth it if it's the only one that works, but I want to see if there are other options first before I decide to keep. I thought about Duo Boots, but I'm a little nervous about buying something without free ship/returns.

So I thought it might be very helpful for all of us to have a thread where we list the exact boots that we have bought or have tried on and actually fit us, so we have somewhere to start our search if we're currently looking for narrow calf boots. Please list the specific brand and model, whether it's flat or heeled, colors available (if you know), and your calf circumference and ideal shaft height as well as your height and shoe size. Links and pics also appreciated! This post is self-serving (since I'm looking for boots myself), but I thought it would hopefully help others who are looking too!

I'll start:
My calf circumference: 13.25 inches
Ideal boot height: something between 13-15 inches
My height: 5'5"
