I have a very hard time finding boots because my calves are large (18+ inches). These Lifestride Bristol boots are fantastic! They fit my large calves but still are form fitting around my ankles. They are comfortable, well made and I love the tread on the bottom. I normally feel like boots that fit my calves make me look like I have "cankles" but NOT these. So flattering and comfortable!

Being a woman over 50, I was looking for a stylish and comfortable tall riding boot. This one is perfect! I am able to wear them all day and my feet don't hurt. They go great with leggings, skirts, dresses, jeans, etc. Perfect all-around boot! I loved them so much I got a second pair in another color!

I love these boots! They are super comfortable, look great, and fit true to size. I have bunions so it is usually very difficult to find shoes that are comfortable, never mind stylish. I am really grateful for them.

The fit was ok, it was like wearing a bag. Not flattering at all. The material is very cheap looking & it's not well make.

These are comfortable straight out the box. Quality material. Good stretch for wide calves.

I told myself no more cheapy boots. These are definitely not cheap, price wise and quality wise. I was able to tell right away that they were good quality. They are sturdy and comfortable. I have a wider foot and was able to wear my running shoe sock which are thicker and am still able to wiggle my toes. The only thing I will say is with the sturdiness comes heaviness. They're on the heavy side. So much that when I cross my legs I can feel the pull down. It's nothing crazy but you can feel it even when you walk.

These LifeStride Wide Calf Boots are so great. This is the third pair I've ordered (different style and color, and they are consistent in fit. If you have muscular claves, these are great.

Beautiful soft leather and very comfy. I was shocked they fit so beautifully. I usually return all the shoes I buy online. This was perfect. So pleased.

Cute boots! I like the sweater fabric in the back bc it makes it easier to get on. I dont think I have wide calves (never needed a wide calf specific boot) but sometimes reg boots dont fit my calves. Havent worn for real yet (just around the house) and they feel comfortable! Tried them on with diff sock thickness, fits with thin and med thick socks but not my thickest. My feet are on the narrower side and I sized down a half size

These were fine. I don't like the style of the fabric portion in the back. It might have been ok if they were snug, but on my skinny calves it looks weird. Otherwise, they seemed ok.

The top of the boot is super wide - if your legs / calves are thin to normal, this looks terrible!

Item arrived with threads hanging from the seams; overall material/finish quality was pretty low imho. The entire back of the boot being made of a stretchy fabric (think cotton-knit material) admittedly helps the boot have a customizable and snug fit on the calf, but the overall appearance is just ok. I also have concern that as the sweater knit material stretches out with wear, it will start to sag.

I bought the black Bristol boot, wide calf, last fall at a higher end shoe store. They were comfortable the moment I put them on so I was willing to spend more than I normally would for a non-leather boot. My issue is I've only worn them maybe a dozen times in a California Fall, housed them inside with shaft holders, and yet the lower inside of the right boot has begun to delaminate. There was obviously an issue in the manufacturing process. I'm hoping Life Stride will make this right. I tried to attach images.

These boots do not have leather uppers but they're more comfortable than three other styles I tried that were leather. I like that they're not too wide in the calf, because I have slim legs. The fabric in the back is comfortable and does not detract from the overall look. They are a great bargain.

Love these boots! Very comfortable- easy to wear- the stretchy back accommodates jeans, leggings and thick socks! I wear a carbon fiber brace and it slides in to these (with a little effort) bit the stretch fabric hides the brace really well. I really like them a lot. They are generously sized. I can wear thick socks. One thing- they were stiff and where they are supposed to bend in front of my ankle rubbed my ankle until They were broken in- kind of uncomfortable- almost returned- but they are ok now.

I bought these boots and another pair to compare. These were significantly nicer in quality. I needed a boot for work for warmer weather. I am on my feet all day at work. I used to model a true size 6 shoe. My arches are very high. These boots fit with a thick winter sock. I also tried my thin arch supports with a thin sock. It made these already comfortable boots even better. I have narrow calves (size 2 pant) so the calf fabric fits very loose on me. Because of the solid panel in the front, the boot continues to look straight even though the back fabric is loose. The ankle is nice and loose for all day movement.

I absolutely love these boots! I am right in between a standard calf and a regular calf, and the stretchiness on the back is PERFECT for people who are in between. They are so versatile, looking great under a midi skirt, jeans tucked in, or dressed up, and add a luxurious feel to any outfit! I love these so much I even got my engagement pictures taken in these. I highly recommend these! *I am a Lifestride employee and I did receive these for free*

These bouts are perfect for me - the fit and style. I like the rubber sole and small heel- works well for the rural area we live in. Yet they can dressed up or down!
