Fashionable overknees for larger feet?

Recommended Posts

First post. Please be gentle. My particular interest is in thigh-high boots - looking at them and, with any luck, wearing them (in private). I'm not particularly interested in dominatrix-style boots, the PVC ones with the pointed toes, but more fashionable models, along the lines of Christian Louboutin Gazolina or Unique 140 or even TopShop's Barley2 or Bunny2. Unfortunately, I'm a men's size 10½ UK, which puts me at quite a disadvantage. I can just about squeeze into a 9 (it's not like I'm going to be walking in them) but even that's proving impossible to find. Any suggestions? Is it possible to stretch a size 8 boot into a size 10? Are there companies that do knock-offs? All advice gratefully received.

Welcome to HHP. Have a look here:

http://www.italianheels.com/index_en.shtml

I have a pair of their "Amanda" in EU44/UK10, actually a little large on my EU43/UK9 feet. Very nice quality, fully leather lined.

If money is no problem I'd be trying http://jean-gaborit.com/en/ While one HHP member has reported problems with them, several HHP members have nothing but praise for them.

Mmm, the Italian site is one I hadn't come across before. Thanks for that, at9 (I've come across the Jean Gaborit one before).

It's just a pity the styles featured on either site aren't more in line with my own preferences. What I'm after is something like this:

or this:

or, best of all (and wiping the drool off my chin), THIS:

As you can see, the shape of the sole and the heel is a big part of the turn-on. And they've got to go over my knee.

I feel so frustrated.

Can boots be stretched a size or two? Is there a way of making them (just about) fit?

with all due respect Qwerty, worst of all last page came back "page not found":sad: so its kind of hard to know without a pic of them-not your fault ofcourse.

Like others have already said, that link doesn't show the boots. It looks like that website does not allow to link to pictures directly.

So instead try visiting this page. The first picture is the one meant above.

Another CL pair for which my feet are sadly much too large. I would never die for footwear, but I'm prepared to be quite ill for these:

Since my feet are also too large I also don't have to worry about whether these gorgeious boots are affordable.
