‘Buttery, soft leather’: The best boots for wide calves

I looked for quality, comfort and a good fit - (Felicity Hayward/The Independent)

Will these boots fit my calves? As a plus size model and creator, this is a question I've asked myself many times over the past decade. So, to help you find the perfect fit, I’ve rounded up my pick of the best wide calf boots for women.

It’s no secret that there’s a lack of size inclusivity in the fashion industry. Part of this is that sizing isn't standardised, whether you’re shopping for clothes or boots. Meanwhile, many plus size brands are often exclusively online, which makes finding a good fit first time even more of a challenge. When it comes to footwear, I’ve been busy road-testing a range of boots for wide calves, to find pairs that offer style, comfort, quality materials and a good fit.
