text: These are so pretty. The calf width is good—I can wear skinny jeans under them without a huge gap. My calves are 14&#34; at the largest point and 13&#34; just under the knee, where most riding boots hit, if that helps at all. The color is really rich and the boots are soft.<br /><br />But dear god, the foot is tight. I have a normal width foot. I have legit never in my life needed a wide-width shoe, and these squeezed my toe joints so much that just trying them on was uncomfortable. The length was good—I'm a true 10—but these really should be labeled as narrow-width shoes. I'd never be able to wear these for more than a few minutes. They may stretch, but that's not a risk I am willing to take when I can just send them back while they're still in new condition. They'd need to stretch more than what is likely in order to be comfortable, and I just don't think that will happen for me.<br /><br />I ordered the Lifestride Racey boots at the same time and I am sending both back, unfortunately. My search for the perfect grey riding boots continues.
