Wide Wellies- A Fantastic Choice For Wide Calfs

I was very happy when I was contacted by Wide Wellies* to see if I wanted to review a pair of their range of wide calf wellies. I had not had a pair of wellies since I was a child since I couldn't find any that fit properly over my big calves so I was happy to see that there was a company that catered for us with bigger calves too. I love going for walks and living in UK means that it can be very muddy, so wellies is something I've wanted more than once. 

They asked me to take a closer look at their measuring guide as they have their own measuring guide to make sure that you get boots that fits you well depending on your size of feet and calves. I took a look at the measuring guide which can be found here and found out that I fit into a 7XL.


When I received my wellies I was really pleased cause the boots had such a great design and looked nicer than on the website. The colour is so vibrant red and the boots are great quality.


I love polka dots!!


These boots have some really nice details like the buckle that gives you a better fit if they are too snug or too big. I love the soles on these boots as they are solid, comfy and the heel is really nice and sturdy too. They are not as slippery as some wellies can be, due to a good grip at the sole. The inside of the boot is padded and has a removable footbed which means you can easily dry the inside if you get water over the top. You also have plenty of room for a pair of thick socks in colder weather.

 I adore the design of the wellies and the red polka dots make me so happy. For a person who likes bold colours and prints a lot it's nice to be able to chose something different than the more neutral green or black wellies. Wide Wellies has a great collection of wellies, some in colours and patterns and some more neutral ones, so there is something for everyone. You can see the rest of the collection HERE. I think that these wellies look great with this look as well and not often that you can say that functionality and style goes together, but these wellies are cute as well as a really great functioning product.



The sole is really nice and solid and with a superb grip and I can vouch for the grip as I was walking on ice without feeling unsteady. Walking in these boots are very comfortable and I didn't get any blisters from wearing them, even if I went for a long walk in them.


Wide Wellies is part of JJ Footwear which offers a wide range of boots for wider feet and calves so if you are looking for some good quality boots I would take a look at their website. They were nominated for best footwear at last years British Plus Size Awards. 

You can find Wide Wellies here as well. 






I was wearing my wellington boots together with leggings, a short denim skirt, knitwear and a hat which makes it a very cute and more stylish "going for a walk look". I'm wearing.

If you don't have wellies, but would like some, I can highly recommend these wellies as they are top quality.

  4. These are the cutest wellies ever, like you I tend to choose more bold and colourful ones rather than green or black! This is the second review I've seen for these wellies and it's so great that a company caters for the wider calf!

    1. Yes, dull wellies in dull weather doesn't sound good to me. So why not brighten the dull days up a bit with some fun and colourful ones instead. :) Yes, I hope they get more known in UK too as they are really good value for money. xx
