I would say that I have fairly wide calves, a bit wider than average. After seeing a comment on Twitter about it being “googling best boots for wide calves season”, I was inspired to share this post! You shouldn’t have to choose between practicality and personality. Shoes are a necessity, but as a shoe lover, they are also an accessory. They can elevate any look, and the same goes for a nice boot!
Most of the women I know have wider calves and we have all shared our frustrations with trying to find options that look good while still fitting great. After scouring the internet, I have found options that not only look good, but will fit a wide range of calf sizes.

Riding boots are having their resurgence again and the styles I’ve been seeing around lately have been so cute. These are great to wear when you still want to look put together but don’t want to give too much effort. These can be easily paired with a skinny jean, slim pant, high duty leggings, or thicker stockings worn with a mini skirt.
Lug boots have become a recent fave in the last year because of their versatility. They can be dressed up or down and really add a bit of edge to any look. I personally love pairing them with skirt and dress looks to give that mix of girly and edgy. Below are some options that will help you slay this trend.
And there you have it! My top picks for the best boots for wide calves. Gone are the days of sacrificing cute for practicality. I hope you find this post helpful and if so, share it with a friend! Happy Shopping!
Until next time…
