Narrow Fitting Boots For Small Calves

It's not just women with curvaceous calves that have problems when it comes to finding boots that fit.

If you're blessed with slender legs, finding a pair of boots that fit both your feet and your legs can be equally difficult. Most high street shoe shops stock a standard width fitting when it comes to boots, failing to realise that there's no such thing as a 'standard' woman.

Every woman's figure is unique and if you're particularly slim, finding the perfect pair of boots can be just as difficult as finding a pair of boots to fit curvy calves.

However, some retailers have realised that no two customers are alike and are now offering a much wider range of fittings, both for your feet and your legs. The best place to find these forward-thinking retailers is online, where you'll find a full range of width fittings to suit every individual shape and size. By simply measuring the widest part of your calf and supplying them with your exact measurements, they will be able to provide you with a pair of boots that fit perfectly from the moment you put them on.

Badly fitted boots don't just look wrong, they feel uncomfortable too. If your boots are too loose around your leg they will lose their shape quickly, becoming creased and wrinkled particularly around the ankles. This may cause you to tense your foot to 'hold the boot on', making aching feet and even blisters a real problem.

Putting an extra-thick pair of socks on won't solve the problem either - all that will do is make the boot tight around your feet, again causing discomfort and possibly more of those pesky blisters. The lifespan of the boot is also shortened, particularly if the boots are made of leather, as the creases around the ankles will quickly crack the surface of the leather and allow the elements in, damaging the material.

There are other alternatives. If your boots are just a little too loose, you can change the way you wear them by blending in this year's biggest fashion statement into your look - boots over jeans. The additional layer of fabric will add a little bulk to your calves and give you a more curvaceous look, perfect if you have very thin calves and want to achieve a more 'womanly' look.

Consider other fabrics such as micro-suede or man-made materials. Although these do have a fair amount of 'give' in them, they'll only stretch a certain amount and how you wear your boot can make a big difference to your overall look. This season's 'scrunched' style lets you disguise thin calves with comfortable, relatively loose fitting boots worn over jeans for a casual, everyday look.

The ultimate is, of course, to buy a pair of boots made to your exact measurements. By doing this you are guaranteed a pair of boots that will fit perfectly from the moment you put them on. The investment is worth it in the long run because you will end up with a pair of boots that last years, not just one season, and will continue to look fantastic for a lifetime.

Having narrow calves doesn't stop you from wearing stylish, fashionable boots in every colour from the classic brown and black through to this season's hottest trend, purple.
