Boot Therapy

More and more clothing companies have heard the complaints of plus size women when it comes to wide calf boots. Now while we shop for our clothes we can shop for boots all in one store. Torrid has really been the leader in offering wide calf boots ALONG with their clothing line for a few years. Two years they even offered a thigh high boot that had plus size shoppers in a tizzy.
Even at a regular prices Torrid’s boots are pretty affordable — the ones shown here about $75 regular (they are currently on sale for less):

Lane Bryant — The ones shown here are about $80.

Yours Clothing — is a UK store with international shipping. While they do not have a huge selection (5 blacks of varying style for $135) they do offer two different sizes of foot widths to go with the wider calves.

When ordering online it is important to read the shoe and sizing information for each store, especially if you are from another country. Always, always measure both of your calves and keep in mind if you wish to wear something tucked into your boots other than a thin hose or sock — if you are wanting to tuck in a thick denim then you will probably need a larger calf size depending on the style of boot.

  1. Love this. I have 22in calves and it’s almost impossible to find boots that go that large in the shaft circumference. I just bought a pair of mid-calf boots from Timberland that work though. 🙂 Yay boot season!
