Perfect fit. I have purchased this exact boot 4 times. I have to wear athletic ankle braces due to weak ankles. The ankle area in this boot is generous which allows me to wear the head turning boot while protecting my delicate ankles with ankle supports. I get tons of compliments on the boots and how I look in them, and no one is the wiser about my feet. I am a small petite women who loves this boot!

Perfect boot for wide calves -
I have had my eye on these boots for 10 years and FINALLY went ahead and bought them with not ONE regret! They are perfect! My calves measure 20" so I ordered the extra wide (EE) unfortunately I don't have wide feet so the foot part is a little loose, BUT that just means I can wear them with thick socks so all is good. I LOVE them and highly recommend them for anyone with wide calves who is looking for a sexy boot!

Ugly - I don't know how desperate you people are to get a boot that fits, but I got this thinking I would be very happy. I was wrong. First things first, yes, it's very narrow and I have medium feet and this is almost too narrow for me. I'm not delusional about the width or size of my foot. I'm a 7m. And this does feel like a 7 Narrow. Secondly, this boot is plain ugly, and it looks cheap. It's not well made. The sole is thin, the leather is thin and cheaply lined with some sort of foam. Third, the boot will fit my calf if I let the laces out in the back to their maximum allowance, but that's really quite ugly and not how this style of riding boot is meant to look. I have measured the inside of this boots circumference at the top, Size 7m is 14 inches around the top. 14 is a big difference than 18. If you fully use every inch of the tongue panel in the back, you get 16 inches. This boot looks like some kind of military uniform boot. I'm returning just as soon as I can get to a printer and print the label. Zappos, if you wanted to be so great, you would just include the return label in the box. I wont shop at Zappos again because of the return label issue. It's too stupid that I should wait 10 days for them to mail me a label or go to Kinkos to print one out. It's incredibly frustrating and I'm so disappointed in this boot. I saw boots half as much at Macys and they were about 10 times cuter than this.

none, people who kept this shoe dont have anything in common with me.

Look great; feel great.
Boots fit true to size. The lacing on back adds a lot to the boot; very comfortable.

Nice Boot -
I wish the boots were about an inch taller, but that's only because I'm tall. Nice looking boot, which is hard to find in a flatter heel. The lacing makes the fit on the calves easy to adjust.

Finally a Boot that fits.
Beautiful - An excellent looking and fitting boot. The boots are well made and fit perfectly. They look great and one would never know they are for "wide calves". The leather is high quality and the back lacing is stylish.

Great boot for fat calves...
As my brother used to say about chubby women's legs: "a cowboy's dream, fat calves..." Never thought I would be there, but I am. The boots were a little loose in the 19" calves, but fit perfectly in the foot. The reason I gave the "look" 3 stars is when I took the boot off, it looked like Santa had left his footwear behind (that is my size's fault, not the design). The boot is well made and well worth the money.

This shoe ran VERY narrow. After reading the reviews I ordered it extra wide (EE) and there was still no way I was going to fit my orthotic in there.

Nice boots.
I haven't been able to have tall boots for quite a few years due to my big ankles and legs. I bought these a full size larger than usual so I could wear heavy socks with them. I also took them to a shoe repair shop and had a new tongue put in that was wider than the one it came with because I really needed the laces to be looser than they are at their largest. I love them. They are very comfortable to walk in. Like some of the others, the scrunched ankle rubbed and bruised my ankle area, but it was worth it to be able to wear boots in the winter again. Overall, love 'em.

Great boots!
Stylish, comfortable, great boot for good or inclimate weather. I live in snow country, and these give me something "nice" to wear without taking any chances on icy sidewalks.

Finally - great look and fit!
The boots are well made and fit perfectly. They look great and one would never know they are for "wide calves". The leather is high quality and the back lacing is stylish. Took 4 pairs of boots but finally found the right one!

Great Value For Happy Feet -
Finally a boot for "shapely" legs. The adjustable back laces and elastic insets all combine for a perfect, comfortable fit. The "box" is deep enough to allow cushioned insoles without pinching pretty toes. New leather is always a bit stiff, so I recommend treating with a leather conditioner like saddle soap or Neet's foot oil to both soften and water-protect the leather.

Fashionable and Walkable -
These boots fit my size 14 foot perfectly. I road tested the boots and walked 3 miles without any discomfort. They are stylish and will be great for the inclement weather and cold climate where I live. I recommend these boots!

Nice boot -
It is a riding style, but the ankle is a little too roomy and can bunch up a bit. Otherwise, fits great and looks great. I followed other's advice and bought a wide width, though I am very definitely a medium width, and am glad I did. The medium width would have been far too small.

Review of fall boots -
The boots are excellent nice soft leather, with a wide calf fit-the first pair of boots I have been able to wear in a long time since gaining some weight. Excellent fit and look.

Cute lace ups -
Very cute boots, easy to tuck jeans into or look great with a skirt/dress. Nice to be able to fine tune the sizing with the lace-up ties in the back.

I purchased this boot to wear on a trip to Europe. It has great looks, is comfortable and easy to put on and off. Once you adjust the strings for a perfect fit on your legs, you tie them and then use the zipper. So you don't have to mess with the strings each time.

These boots are really cute. They are stylish and sheik. They are made very nicely. On a personal note they slouch at the ankle and look scrunched. They fit nicely.

Loved Them!
I have very large calves (actually need 23 inch around) and large ankles that I rarely can fit straps around. I also wear 11w which is hard enough to find... I ordered the 11ww and they were perfect! The extra width made the ankles fit better. Finally a knee-high boot that fits.

Nice Boot -
I like this boot. Comfortable. Cute. I ordered wide and it fit very nicely, especially around my calf, which doesn't fit in regular. Would have liked to see better quality of leather for the money but I still like it.

Great Boots -
Fit beautifully, look fabulous! Truly wide-calf as advertised. I have small but very wide feet which are hard to fit, but these boots fit perfectly and are absolutely true to size.

Very happy -
I have never been able to find a tall boot that would fit my wide calves. Since Zappos gives the measurements I thought I would take a chance on these. I could not believe it when I tried them on and the zipper went all the way up easily. I do not do well with heels but this nice wide heel feels very stable and comfortable. I am so happy to finally have a pair of boots! Thank you Zappos!
