Where to find boots that fit?


Guest

Recommended Posts

I have a shoe and leather boot fetish, but it seems that in a female size 9 (my size) the top part of the boots are either too skinny (anorexic almost) or way too big. I have nice shapely legs that are very toned. I found are really sexy pair the other day but the tops were too big. :hairpull: I guess im luck not to have huge feet but this is frustrating...

Better a 9 than a 12 women's!! I'm just out of the range that most stores carry, since they usually stop at 11. So I have to be content with what I can find when I can find it. I'd trade you my problem for yours in a heartbeat though! :)

But do you find that the tops of them dont fit? Most I find are way too big.

I guess I'm lucky Im shorter.

Where do tall women shop then?

btw

Your picture in your avatar is pretty.

Hi Lexi,

I had terrific luck with DSW shoes. Looking at my everyday wear for work, all have come from DSW, ranging from flats to boots. I have two pairs of boots that are calf-length. One is just right, the other a bit loose. But, that's the style. Most women's calves would be a bit smaller than mine, I think. I've seen girls wearing boots that are tiny by comparison to mine. There must be a small percentage of women who could actually fit into those. But they are cute, if you can do it!

Best of luck!

Love, Megan

Just so you know, the boots I own do not fit tightly against my legs. In fact, they are pretty loose once they get above my ankle. I wouldn't worry too much if they are loose on top, thats been normal for every pair of boots I've owned.

And another head's up - Payless shoes sells women's shoes up to size 13 - though the styles get more limited the higher the shoe size is. They have great sales, especially on the bigger sizes. I got 3 pair for my husband for about $40.

Yeah, someone else said DSW sells bigger sizes in women's shoes. I don't normally shop at DSW, but I can certainly stop in and check if I see one. If you want a tight fitting boot, look for the kind that lace up. There are also some that have straps on them which allow the boots to be tightened around your ankle / calf. Depending on what type of boots you are looking for, you can look into the platform boots that tighten up the ankle - I know I've seen them at Hot Topic. I'm trying to think where else I've seen shoes above a size 10 but I loathe shoe shopping so I'm usually in and out of the store.

I got a dress at hot topic. Luckily I'm a women size 9 so I can go to most womens shoe stores. But I could use a pair of go-go boots!

You can google search - women's shoes/boots, size 12(or whatever) and a bazillion of them will pop up. Not all threads will take you to a shoe your size so you have to be patient.

Hi

I'm an absolute boot fanatic. As I have joked in previous posts: I'm the Imelda Marcos of cross dressing when it comes to shoes and boots. I buy from E-bay and there are so many types available. For a narrow calf look for some lace-ups. I have several wonderful lace-up boots that can be drawn nice and firm against the calf. Ditto for over the (increasingly weak) knee.

I also have a thing for shoes and boots. the higher the heel the better. i think i am lucky as my feet are size 8 and nearly all shoes i have bought have fitted well. I recently bought some thigh boots and they are the first that are a bit tight for my feet but the trade off is they are a good fit up to the thigh.

      I understand your feelings. I have the same fears.  NC has made a swing to the right as well, and I'm not optimistic.  I want to tell myself I'm over reacting.  But seeing what these people are  saying, and doing when they do get into power can't be dismissed.  It's proof of what they will do if they take over the federal government. I'm getting kinda old now anyway.  It took me over 60 years to get here, and I'm not going back.  I suppose they can revert my gender markers, but I will still be legally Ivy.  And I have every intention of dying as Ivy Anna.  If I can't find my hormones somehow, I'll do without.  The physical changes I do have are permanent.   Trans people have always existed.

      @KymmieL I think we all have had to deal with a person who would not apologize when they were wrong no matter what.  In my case it was my MIL. Actually called me a lier I front of my wife.  Even when she realized she was wrong she wouldn’t admit it to my wife, nor would she apologize to my wife for any of the things she later admitted she had done that affected my wife.  I had a boss that accused me of saying things I did not say in a manner I did not use.  Even another employee told him that I had not said the things nor used the words but he still refused to back down.     Unfortunately, all too many people in this world believe they are always right no matter what.  Some are very famous.  lol   Willow

      I wish I could cope as well as others. I feel very defeated in that all of the consideration, and then treatment to transition, could all be wiped out by this time next year with the united effort by the R party to eradicate all that is transgender. I fear that the national election could turn out to our detriment, and we will face a national push to eradicate us. Tracking us down will not be that hard to do. Once they know who we are, forcing the legislation to reverse our name changes, gender marker changes, and other records, will not be that hard. We saw an example when the AG in Texas was data mining the driver licenses for those who had gender marker changes. Who will we appeal to? The Supreme R Court? We would have an easier time trying to convince a Russian court.    We need to get out and vote in November. There is not enough Ben & Jerry's to improve my outlook on all of this. In some ways it is a cruel thing in a way. In the early 1930s, Germany was working hard to hunt down the LGBTQ population and eradicate it. Now Germany has better protections there than we have in many of our own states. About 90 years ago, Germany was seeing the rise of their very own dictator...Now the US is on the verge...Oh never mind. What a difference 90 years makes...    History may repeat itself, but sometimes it shifts the focus a little...

      I have the same problem as you, my face is the main reason why I get misgendered I'm pretty sure. I think it's mostly up to genetics how your face will look (T can help, but still genetics will determine how you end up). You can't change your facial structure really, you can get facial masculinization surgery but it's expensive so not an option for most unless you're rich lol.    Experimentally (I haven't done it but want to), you could see if any plastic surgeons around you will give you Kybella in your cheeks. It is an injection that removes fat, and is usually used underneath the chin/on the neck below the jawline, but some may use it off-label on the face. The only potential problem with this is that if your face would naturally thin out at an older age, it could thin out extra and make you look older (though I'm not certain on this). Another option is to get filler in your jaw/chin, which would make your jawline look more square and your face more masculine. I want jaw filler but I'm poor lol, it only lasts one year up to a few years depending on what kind you get, so it would have to be done every so often and can get expensive. I did get chin filler once, only 2 small vials so it didn't make that big of a difference. I would recommend going for the jaw if you can only choose 1, I wish I had done that.   Those are the only options I know of that will bring legitimate noticeable changes.

      Thank you.    Trans men and trans women each have their own struggles for sure, but I agree, it can be a hard time to be a non-passing trans guy. There is no specific "man clothes" that only men wear. People could just think I'm butch (which sucks to think about, if people think I'm a lesbian when I'm a dude!!). I mean I would feel better if I got gendered correctly even if I don't fully pass, it would maybe raise my confidence to think maybe I do pass well lol! Instead I'm just reminded I don't.   Though I may just focus on the times I don't pass and ignore the times that I do. Because I rarely remember getting gendered correctly, but I hone in on the times that I don't.

      Thank you, I'm glad to be here. :)   I have been in therapy for 9 years but still can't seem to accept myself. I think it has to do with growing up trans in a world that hates us, especially in the south. I mean I was discriminated against by adults and ostracized as a kid/teen due to being trans. My family is accepting, but the rest of the world is not. I realize now a lot of people are accepting (even unexpectedly, like my partner's conservative republican Trump-loving parents lol), but it feels like my brain is still in survival mode every time I exit the door. I am a very fearful person.   My body still may change over time, but it feels like I haven't met the same 'quota' (don't know the right word) that a majority of other trans guys have on far less time on T. Most trans guys pass easily 1-3yrs on T, I'm double that and still don't pass well except my voice.

      Thank you. I am just used to seeing trans guys who pass at like... 6 months to 1 year, at the most 3 years. And I just don't meet the mark, all the way at 6 years. It is possible with time I will masculinize more, but it's frustrating when I'm "behind" and may never catch up. It threatens my mental health mostly, possibly my physical health if I'm visibly trans (though I don't ever go out alone).

      Boss is happy with everything with me and said I will be the only one that works on one customer's truck.This customer saw me clean a small grease spot in the inter of his Kenworh last week,on the steering wheel.A new customer too,saw me walk out with my tub o' towels wiping that grease stain off.This one,he cannot stand a grease spot in the interior.

      Yeah, I am grieving the man I "should" have been. He will never exist, especially not in my youth. But I don't know how to healthily go about it instead of fixating on the life that could have been.

      Sorry it took me a while to respond!    I would like to get to know you. :) I only have mental disabilities. Schizoaffective disorder, depression, and anxiety. The last two are severe and very treatment-resistant. I did have physical problems for some time, but it was caused by an antipsychotic medication (Invega). It basically crippled me, muscle weakness/fatigue, basically could barely walk (used mobility devices) and doctors were useless since they didn't suspect the medication I was on! I've finally ditched antipsychotics (hopefully for good, unless my symptoms come back). I usually don't share like this, especially in person, but hey, I'm anonymous. :)   I'm not expecting reciprocation at all btw, these things are personal. There is more to us than disabilities, so tell me about yourself if you still wanna talk!
    • EasyE
      thanks for the insight ... good to know things are being well thought-out ... it is no easy topic for sure, as many of us on here have been wrestling with this stuff for years and decades...
