TSV Earth Origins Wide Calf size of circumference

JeannieInMD · ‎06-13-2016

Hello,

I'm new to these forums, but I'm seeing if I can make sure I'm understanding something correctly.

Today's TSV is the Earth Origins boot and I need a wider calf, but it seems that the wide calf is only one inch wider than the regular. Is that right? Am I missing something?

Also, I purchased the Aimée Kestenberg bad TSV the other day. Do you know if that leather is polishable?

Yes, the boots are one inch difference.

Also, welcome to the boards. 😀😀

Thank you. I wish there were a larger difference between the regular and wide calf. An inch is so negligible.

I appreciate the welcome!

At its widest place the wide calf is 17 inches - 1 inch wider down the shaft than the 16 inch. It also has neoprene stretch up the back and a bit of give at the top of the 14 inch high shaft. Watch the video on the item description her on the website. It gives the details. Welcome

Most of the boots I've seen for a regular or medium sized calf have been in the 14-15 in. range and these are 16 which seems oversized to me. I like the navy suede, but I have a 13 in. calf and I'm worried they will look sloppy on me. But that may explain why there's only an inch difference between the two. Seventeen inches may be average for a wide shaft boot, but 16 in. for the average seems a bit overly generous. I'm not sure.

I have a 15" calf and I am not sure if I should order the wide or regularl width to wear with leggings or skinny jeans.

The host I saw present these boots said she is a size 14 with an athletic calf. She had jeans tucked all the way down and still had plenty of room. It would have been helpful to know her calf measurement .

If it was Carolyn, she said she was wearing the wide shaft but didn't say what her calf measurement was. She had her jeans tucked inside and it looked to me like she had plenty of room.
