'I have big calves and struggle to find boots that fit - New Look's £60 knee highs have ample room'

by · Manchester Evening News

Knee high boots are an autumn and winter fashion staple, but it can be surprisingly difficult to find boots that fit for those of with wider calves. Fortunately, we've spotted a pair at New Look that shoppers say are the 'perfect fit' for those who otherwise struggle zipping up knee high boots.

What's more, they are budget-friendly too. The Extra Calf Fit Black Leather-Look Buckled Knee-High Biker Boots cost £59.99 and are available in sizes three to nine, all of which are still in stock online.

The boots, which are a new arrival at the high street retailer, are guaranteed to become a cold weather go-to. Thy feature a block heel for stability and an adjustable buckle for comfort.

Knee high boots are so versatile and can be styled with skirts, dresses and even trousers. We think the boots would look gorgeous with the £27.99 Burgundy Long Sleeve Crinkle Mini Dress but they would look equally as fabulous with the Pale Blue Denim Split Front Maxi Skirt, which comes in at £32.99.

New Look's Extra Calf Fit Black Leather-Look Buckled Knee-High Biker Boots have been well received by fans, boasting an overall star-rating of 4.8 out of five. In the reviews, one shopper said: "Perfect boots. These are such good quality and the price is very fair, so happy."

A second wrote: "Brilliant for larger calves. I always struggled to find boots that zip up at my calves as I do not have much definition in my calves (I get called cankles) so I was over the moon when I was able to zip these up with an additional bit of breathing room. Super comfy too."

Somebody else mentioned: "Boots that fit perfectly, still slim at the ankle but wider at the calf. Brilliant, can’t wait to wear them."

However, one shopper docked the Extra Calf Fit Black Leather-Look Buckled Knee-High Biker Boots a star because they are 'a little bit difficult to get into', which maybe something to keep in mind. They said: "These are excellent boots for wider calves, mine measure 44cm and I can get them done up.

"I also have a high instep so they are a little difficult get my foot in but they are stretching a tiny bit every time I wear them. Overall I am quite pleased with them. The quality is ok, but I don't think they will last more than a winter or two."

Elsewhere, Marks and Spencer is offering the Wide Fit Leather Flat Buckle Riding Boots in black and brown for £110. They come in sizes three to eight, including half sizes. At Debenhams, the Ayleen Wide Calf Wedge Heel Knee High Boots With Elastic Panel by Where's That From has been slashed by 66% from £122.99 to £41.99.
