Way too big!
I was so excited to find a pair of cute, hip brown boots in a wide calf because my 18 inch calves definitely make it difficult to find boots that fit. As soon as I opened the box, my heart sank. Theses boots were huge, and I mean colossal! They seem to be meant for 22 inch plus calves; this is no exaggeration. Back they went to Zappos, and my search for the perfect brown leather boots continues.

These boots are amazing!
Unlike what everyone else is saying, I don't recommend getting them in a size smaller than you normally wear. I usually wear a 9 average but I have huge soccer player calves (18 inches around!)I ordered them in a size 8 and a half because everyone said they were loose, but they're a bit too small. So, get them in your own size and they look perfect if you have normal feet but athletically large calves.

Was so excited to get the boots- the only boot I have ever been able to pull up to my knee. The only thing was the ankles were sooooooooooooo big- they kind of looked like fireman boots. So my quest continues for a pair of boots please help:)

When I saw these shoes online I fell in love with them. But I had to return them 3 times to get the right size and the one I have now isn’t perfect for my foot. I have man-ly calves.. They are big & muscular. Never thought I would ever find a pair of boots. That would reach my knees... I am usually a size 11 but the 11 fit soo big around the ankle it looked disgusting. And the 9.5 didn’t fit ..the 10 fits but I feel like my feet are gonna explode but they should stretch...

Good boots -
I bought these boot for practical, stylish, comfort. I succeeded! I am 5'8" with a size 10 foot and my calf has an 18 inch circumference so nothing ever fits. These fit!! they were too loose in the ankle and the calf bulge but I took them to my shoe guy and he took them in for me by a 1/4 inch. They are totally worth it. I am sure that I can use them for years to come. (keep in mind that the 17" circumference is proportionate to a size 7 shoe.)

Wide calf boots for wide calves like mine -
Well, ladies, I didn't know what to expect based on the other reviews of this boot. For the first time in my 44 years, I have found boots that go over my calves AND knees with skinny jeans AND medium weight, straight-leg jeans. The back of the boot doesn't gap on me (I'm 5' 7", size 14, solid legs); it's proportional to the shape of my leg. Even if I cuff the top so that the boots are knee-high, they look really good. I highly recommend these boots if you've had similar boot disappointments in the past. They are plain but they fit, and because they fit, they flatter. The leather is decent and the price is fair. These might be the ticket for you, too. Zappos, please get more of these in stock, all colors!

Beyond a wide calf...
Okay...WAS super excited about these. The actual boot is cute but they are extremely large not only at the calf but at the ankle. I was thinking about taking them to get cut but I am not willing to commit that kind of money to this boot. The leather quality was pretty good and the actual shoe part was extremely comfortable for my wide foot. Without disrespecting anyone, I would suggest that might be okay if you have not only a wide calf but "elephant" legs. Good Luck

Only for BIG, BIG calves!!!
I had read all the other reviews saying that the calf was too large, but thought, "Great! These should be perfect for me, since I have huge calf muscles!" They came today and they are HUGE. I could fit three pairs of pants and my calves into them.
I measured my calf before I bought these, just to make sure: I am 6'0", wear a size 12, and have an 18.5" calf circumference. These boots were too large, even for me! If the back of the boot were flat, instead of rounded out for the calf, I might have kept these anyway, but the "bump" just looked ridiculous with my pants tucked in.
Added to that, the boot itself is very, very plain. The rounded toe in front is NOT in style, even if the no- to low-heel is.

Fantastic!
Great boot - very comfortable and quality construction. Like other reviewers have noted, it is a bit larger than I had anticipated. However, the fact it is so fashionable and actually fits my wide calf is much appreciated... hopefully other brands will follow suit in making such products!

Multipurpose boot -
This boot are awesome, you can wear it in several ways. The boot was way too tall so I folded the top to give it that pirate boot look or you can even slouch it, no matter which style they still looked very good. I have a wide calf and I have looked for comfortable, flat, cute bots and these fit the bill. Highly recommend.

Wide Calf is an understatement!
I ordered these boots as I have wide calves. I was able to put these on with no problem at all. They are actually too big for my wide calves! I am 5'10" and these go right up above my knee. They stay up though which is good. I am keeping them because they are very comfortable and look great with skirts. If you have a wide calf, be prepared to have room to spare.

Yeah, the calf is HUGE. I ordered a size larger than I normally wear because I have BIG feet and BIG legs. This is the first time in my life I can actually get a boot to go all way up to my knee... and there's still room, even with jeans on!!! So yeah, the boot is huge but I kept it because I know there's no way in the world I'd be able to find something like this to fit me. It's a really cute shoe... just WAY big lol.

Large calf -
I have a size 11 foot and my calf is very muscular measuring 171/2 inches so it is extremely hard to find a nice boot that fits.
I saw this here and it was exact ally what I had been looking for. It arrived today and I was busting at the seams to open the box.
As soon as I saw them I was excited But when I tried them on they were so big I am also talk at 5'10 the shaft of the boot was half way over my knee and sure my calf was in the boot but I could have put my other one in the same boot also. So back to looking for another boot.

I have muscular calves so when I saw these boots I was excited to order them. When they came, lol, I had never seen anything like these. They're huge. Had to return them. But thank you Zappos for sending them right away and free return. Will definitely order from them again.

I had to return this boot, although it's cute. It has a huge wide calf... too wide even for me, and my calf measures 16". So if you're looking for a gigundo measurement, this is the one for you.
