    Finally! Boots that Actually Fit Curvy Calves

    By Liz Black, Refinery29
    The most ubiquitous shoe style of the season is, of course, the tall boot. Whether over-the-knee or below it, the tall boot is effortlessly stylish and can be worn with skinny jeans, split-skirt maxi-dresses, and everything in between.

    Unfortunately, since the majority of boots only have an average calf circumference of 14 inches, where does a curvy-calved woman turn when she wants to dip a toe into the trend? From plus-size style staples like Wide Widths and Torrid to U.K.-based Duo Boots and the well-known DSW, we've rounded up the most strut-worthy styles for boots that'll fit ladies with powerful legs who've got the calves to show for it.

    Ahead, 6 boots that will make you, and your gams, feel fantastic.
