Customer Reviews Tretorn Sofiero Rubber Rain Boot - Wide Calf

I'm a curvier girl on the bottom (10/12) so I bought these boots thinking the wide calf option would be better to fit jeans and tights into. While the boot itself was very well made, very cute and incredibly comfortable (squishy! arch support!) the wide calf option did not do it for me. I tried them on with leggings and the bottom of the boot would buckle when I walked because the top could not move around my leg. I was super disappointed to have to send them back as they were a great price and were so cute. The calf was indeed wider that most boots but the top band of the boot still was way too snug on my leg, even with just leggings on. My verdict: Definitely a great boot but if you are curvy on the bottom, make sure to read the measurements because these still might be too snug. (Also! I was tricked by these laces, they don't actually make the top of the boot looser, they're just for decoration.)

Nice boots, well made, great for rain. However, I have wide calves and they did not fit me in that area. Definitely order a size smaller, they run very big! If you are a 1/2 size like me, order down 1 and 1/2 sizes, you may still need a smaller size than that! Not particularly warm, but perfect for rain!

I bought and returned these a little while back. I have rather thick calves and was really excited to find some great rain boots that claim to accommodate someone like me. Well, they do not. I squeezed my leg in there, bare, with no chance of ever getting in there should I wear tights, or God forbid, actual pants. No go for me. They are really cute if you are gifted with slimmer calves.

I purchased these boots as a replacement to a pair that had started leaking. I have very athletic calves and bought these for the "wide calf" descriptor. They will work, but I wish they were a bit wider. The size 10 is just wide enough to fit a pair of skinny jeans or leggings, but nothing more. The laces on the front are purely decorative, so don't count on them to give you more room in the calf area. They are very well cushioned and comfortable though!

These look like they would be great, but I am short and have huge calves. The circumference of these was just not wide enough. I measured my calf - 14.5 inches. Unfortunately, although I could get them on, they were so tight, it took 5 minutes to get them off. I wear a size 6, but based on the reviews, I got a size 5 and my foot was still swimming. Sorry to send them back because they look like they would be great. Just be aware if you have big calves, these might not work for you. I'm going to try the Langta; I'll post a review when they come.

I am normally a size 10-10.5 in sneakers, so I originally bought these boots in size 11, but they were swimming on me, so I returned them for size 10. Zappos was wonderful and I received the new ones right away. I wanted to love these boots, and I did the first time I wore them. But after wearing them twice, and then three and four times, they rubbed the sides of my pinky toes so badly they were raw and blistered. I was even wearing thick socks each time. I have wide feet so this might not be a problem for others. Sadly I can't return them now since I've worn them a few times. Maybe I can find a friend who wants them.

Finally, a rain boot that fits over my calf! Nice, classic look - not too trendy. Comfortable. Now if it would just start raining!
