:sigh: Any idea where i can buy wellies that will fit my fat calfs?! I have seen wide boots, but never wellies. Was quite embarrasing when i got a pair stuck yesterday, suction round my legs was a nightmare lol.
Can I recommend http://www.thewellyshop.com/images/Muck%20Tack%20Black.jpg aka Muck Boot Company. A horsey item but they're fab. I have 17.5/18" calves and these are the perfect fit. As the upper is neoprene, you can roll it down, place your foot in and then roll the neoprene back up. Perfect fit!
I only have the following picture. Mine are the ones designed for riding in though, and the ones I've recommended to you are FAR more comfy. Just wanted to show you the neoprene-ness at the top!
They're completely water proof and are fab for muddy activities. If I had a pair of those I recommened to you, I'd never be out of them. They're like slippers, so comfy!
