Flat over the knee boots

Toto Wolfcastle · 05-11-2008 4:49pm #1

I have very skinny legs so boots never fit properly. There's always a big enough gap between the boots and my legs. So I want to get some flat over the knee boots to wear with dresses to combat this.

I've fallen in love with the boots below but I don't think they are in Faith in Debenhams (Cork at least) and they don't deliver to Ireland. Has anyone seen anything like them anywhere in Ireland or on any sites that deliver to Ireland? I'm looking for a similar colour to the ones below.

Pricey but at least the fit would be right....

Actually, re-reading your post - you could get any boots from Duo to fit your calfs as they do them in tons of different measurements.

They look good but I really couldn't justify spending that much! Thanks a million anyway.

Yeah but it would work out cheaper in the long run as you'd have ones that fit properly and you would have them for years and years.

Thats my usual argument to justify expensive things

I've used that argument myself a lot lately!

I definitely wont rule them out.

Do you have Simon Hart or Korkys in Cork?

I never even thought of Korkys! I must go in and have a look. Thanks for that.

omg I love over the knee boots!
Does anyone know where to get a fairly cheap pair? don't want to spend to much because I know there just king of in fashion at the moment. I also know boots arn't cheap in general...any ideas?

The ones in Faith that I linked to in my OP are now in Faith in Cork. I saw them earlier and got all excited because they had 20% off. Unfortunately they were still way way too wide around my leg and looked really stupid.

The search continues!

There was a black pair in Carl Scarpa in Cork about a month ago, the missus was getting something else but they caught my eye. They were a bit tighter to the leg than the ones you linked to but they might be worth having a look at.

Ha ha me too. But in my case, I really have to start wearing things more than once...

Ahh the good doctor, hello, haven't seen you around these parts in many months.

As mentioned Carl Scarpa is well worth a look. There's one on Grafton Street where I was with the missus a few months ago and they had a very stylish pair in black, so I'm sure they'd have the same/similar in cork.

Howdy! Ah I drop in from time to time, I see things are ticking over nicely here
