Hallelujah! They fit my curvy calves (18-3/4") and are gorgeous quality. The leather is supple and so soft, but they don't sag because the adjustable ties behind the knee offers a customized fit. I ordered a full size larger, mainly because my usual 10 wasn't in stock, and there is no 10-1/2. I took a chance on the 11 and they fit just a tad roomy, but are perfect with heavier socks. My usual size definitely would have been too snug, as they are slightly narrow. For reference i have a slightly wide foot with a high instep. I'm 5'6" and these reach just to the top of my knee. I wore them out to a concert date with a basic t-shirt dress and a denim jacket and I felt sexy and chic. I received compliments from my guy, which was nice. They were comfortable to wear all night, the heel height is perfect. I'm 63 and I can confidently wear them because they're not overtly sexy or pirate-like. They are part rock 'n' roll with a touch of class and a bit of sexiness, much like I would describe my own personal style. If you are on the fence, just get them. You'll have them forever.

Finally a wide calf boot that is stylish and in leather!! I am 5’7” and the boots come up to the top of my knee. I bought a size larger than my usual size so I could wear heavy socks, I live in NW Montana so I need to dress warm about half the year. I used a waterproofing spray so I didn’t have to worry about wet feet and to protect the leather. I highly recommend them, in fact I bought both colors! A friend has had a pair of Bed Stu boots for years and wears them constantly all winter so I am confidant they will last.

I have these boots in several colors, and was looking for a tan/light brown color. Unfortunately, these boots are quite yellow, and much lighter than what is shown on the computer. ( I know computer monitors can dramatically change the color- these boots included!) So while these boots are fantastic, the color isn't great.

I read all the reviews before I bought these and honestly thought I would be sending them back as soon as I tried them on. Surprisingly they fit perfectly. I wear an Euro 39 US 8.5 and ordered a 8.5 and they fit well even around my calves.

it took me 4 years to pull the trigger on this purchase and I'm so glad I did. They are everything I expected them to be. I love the distressed look and the leather is butter soft.

These boots are BEAUTIFUL! Unfortunately, my legs are just too short for them (I'm 5'5") as they come up over my knee. It actually looks fine in the front, but the laces being in the bend of my knee just doesn't work. So sad to return them...if you're on the fence about the height, just get them and if they don't work then return, because they are just stunning.

I've always wanted knee high boots and the Bed Stu boots are magnificent. The interior is butter soft leather, the shoe fits well, is balanced and supportive, the lacing at the back of the knee is perfect for a personalized fit. The size zipper helps me to get them on without lots of tugging and the wide calf fits fabulously! I was surprised to see that they are 'weathered'(light marks on dark leather) but after having them a time it gives them more depth of color and character. If I don't like the light marks I'm sure I can cover them with colored shoe polish. They are not as pictured.

What a beautiful boot! I loved them so much when I took the pair out of the box. I was very disappointed to discover that my arch is so high I couldn't get the boot on. Beautiful boots!

I feel like I'm in the twilight zone with all the reviews that tell you to order a full size up, I debated buying these for a while cause I'm a size 8.5 to 9 and they only had an 8.5 available, so I finally figured if they are ridiculously small like all these reviews say I would just return them. Keep in mind that boots I usually will buy in a 9 for sock room. These gorgeous boots arrived and fit PERFECTLY! I do not have a narrow foot and seriously they fit like they were made for a feet. If I went up a full size they would be clown shoes on me...but I digress... These boots are so so beautiful. I do have a wider calf and can wear with skinny jeans or leggings no problem, the ties in the back make them wearable in so many ways. I got the brown and the distressed leather is so so perfect. The quality is absolutely there, I'm obsessed with these! Buy them!!

Awesome BUT they run a FULL SIZE SMALL, and the shafts are about 2” TALLER THAN OTHER KNEE HIGH BOOTS. Luckily, I heeded the reviews and ordered an 8.5 (I’m normally a 7.5 medium width) so the foot part fit great. However, not enough of the other reviews mentioned the height!!
I’m 5’5” and these hit me at the crease of the back of my knee, which was uncomfortable every time I bent my leg to walk. If I was taller, or had longer legs, or a higher lower-leg-to-thigh ratio (is that a thing??) I would have kept these boots for sure. The leather is soft and gorgeous, and the design is fantastic with the tie at the top so it doesn’t gape and is adjustable to a lot of different calf widths.
But make sure you measure your current knee-high boots and decide if the shaft height is going to be too much for you!

I love these boots! I can wear them over my jeans and they are so stylish. I love the leather and the handmade feel. I can't wait to wear them out and about.

Love this boot. This is a true light tan boot, not orange as one reviewer said. I have been looking for this type of boot for a long time and now it is mine all mine. I will be ordering a black pair soon. Do order a size up though.

This is the perfect boot over jeans or under skirt. It is my second pair of Manchester boots (bought black last year). Love them!

The material was very nice, but the width was too wide for me. I did not realize that you can adjust the width with the strings in the back. I am going to return. I tried to order my size in the smaller width not available.

The shaft of these boots is so soft, just a beautiful boot all around. I am between a regular and wide calf boot. My ankles are small but, my calves are about 16 inches. These fit with the laces completely tightened. I will say if you have a wide foot, these are not for you. I have a wide instep, and these are tight across that area. I dont have chunky feet so I think these will stretch enough once broken in to be fine. Otherwise, there is very little wiggle room in the toe box.

You need to either fix your sizing or suggest ordering a full size up. Other than that the boots are beautiful!
