Customer Reviews Sam Edelman Penny 2 Wide Calf Leather Riding Boot

The color of these boots is gorgeous. It is a beautiful leather boots, however, they are NOT extra-wide shaft boots. They are described as having an 18" shaft, but the only place they are 18" is where it flares at the very top of the boot. The actual shaft that goes over your calf is only 16".

While gorgeous, this boot was very disappointing. After years of searching for a boot that fit my calf properly, these zipped up perfectly. But the foot was WAY too narrow, despite being labeled "wide". I typically require a wide, but in this case it was actually the section around my arch that was the problem, not the toe box. They are worth a try because the shaft is actually sized well, but not if you actually require a wide foot area as well.

These are lovely boots. The leather is buttery soft and the color is like pewter, absolutely gorgeous in every way. I have a wide calf, 18 1/2 inches, and this boot fits perfectly with room for leggings or skinny jeans. The first day I wore them I got tons of compliments. All that said about their asthetics... I have foot issues plantar facistis -these are comfortable!

These boots are gorgeous!! I have the hardest time finding genuine leather, wide calf boots and these checked every box. I'm ordering in all colors! Highly recommend. The only thing is they run narrow so do yourself a favor and order the wide even if you don't have a wide foot.

I am so excited these are my fourth pair of Sam Edelman boots and I love each one of them I own a black pair, cognac, olive and now grey and they look good and fit to perfection I am and always will be a valued VIP customer of Zappos. I love their shoe/boot selection for life. I am obsessed with boots in different colors and if you have wide calf these are boots for you. They are very stylish.

These are really beautiful boots and I was so, so sad they were too wide on the calfs. My calfs are wide and most boots don't fit, but I was swimming in these.

It took a while to find a good looking AND comfortable GRAY boot but this one fit the bill !! The WIDE calf was perfect and a boot I could easily wear all day and night !!

The boot is beautiful, however it was narrow and felt tight on the foot. Calf fit great. I was devastated that I had to return.

I ordered the wide calf version of the Sam Edelman Penny boots because my calf actually measured 16.5 with skinny jeans on. But these run much larger around the calf than advertised. I returned them and am going to order the regular calf size. The leather of the boot is gorgeous and the boots themselves are very comfortable.

I. LOVE. THESE. BOOTS!!!!! They definitely run narrow as other reviews have mentioned. I am a slightly wide width so I ordered the wide. They are very snug but I’m slowly breaking them in. They are getting more and more comfortable every time i wear them. The quality is great and they feel so nice! I’m excited i’ll get to wear these for a long time. Well worth the price! I probably would order a wide even if I was a regular width because they do run on the narrow side. The calf is also tight on me, but they look great and they’re comfortable.

These boots are so nice the leather is like butter but the boot in a wide width is only 16 inches not even close to 18 in. I even measured them with a tape measure 16. So bummed because I love them. Sadly they must go back.

I have large calves but I do not need a wide with shoe. I needed a regular 11 with a wider calf and this was the best boot I could have bought. I have brown and gray and now I’m ordering black. The back zip feature makes it easy to zip Over the wider part of the calf, much easier than the side zip. The zipper and zipper pull are very sturdy and I’m not worried about it breaking off when I pull on it. The darker toe and heel is great for preventing scuff marks and adds classy look. The snap closure over the zipper is just a special but classy touch too. The leather and the hardware are superior but I really love the hard bottom sole because I walk hard and they will hold up. Great buy foto great price! I found my favorite boot!

I ordered the wide calf and I'm glad I did. The regular calf was too tight for comfort. The wide calf is a lot looser than I would like, but it's better than too tight. The boot is beautiful! I ordered a 7 1/2 wide but I think it's a tiny bit narrower than what I expected. The 8 regular width would have been uncomfortable. I won't be able to wear thick socks with the boot. Tights or knee hi stockings is as thick as will work with this size.

Beautiful, comfortable. I have very large calves and these just fit. Very stylish!

I love this boot, I have it in 3 colors! I get so many compliments on them and they are pretty comfortable. The calf width is 16 and 3/4 but it has a little five and they could stretch a bit if you needed them to.

Perfect for wide calves. Very happy with the purchase

This is my third pair of Penny 2 boots, but it is always a struggle to find the perfect combination of shoe and calf width, as these boots do run quite narrow. They take a few wears to break in, after which the leather softens up and the footbed becomes more comfortable. Once broken in, they're incredibly versatile - they're perfect with dresses and skirts, as well as over leggings and jeans. I'm 5' 0", and the top of the boot hits just below my knee. The top is also quite wide, so those of us with wider calves can appreciate that it's not only comfortable and easy to zip up, but it is a flattering silhouette.

Super soft & comfy leather- love these boots!

These boots are beautiful. I love the rich color and feel of the leather. The calf width is wide enough, for my short girl calves, in the wide calf width. I love the combination of standard foot width, and wide calf. I should be able to tuck skinny jeans and leggings into the boots. 5’1”, 130 lbs.

These are the first wide-calf boots that I've seen that are just as stylish as their traditional-calf counterparts. The color, styling, leather and feel are beautiful. I just came back and ordered the gray and black versions. Looking forward to wearing these with leggings, dresses and skinny jeans!

FINALLY a wide calf boot that's great quality and looks good! Just another reward for losing weight. These boots will get their wear!!

the size felt like it was true, but the width was too narrow for my feet. I’ve never had to get wide shoes before, but returning the M and ordering Wide because they are too cute to pass up. Fit my big calf perfectly!

Gorgeous and comfortable boot. Fit my wide calf very well.

Best boots ever! My go-to for years
