Are There Barefoot Boots With A Wide Calf?

Currently there are just a handful of tall barefoot boots available, and they cater to an average calf width. Unfortunately that means you can’t currently find wide calf barefoot boots off the rack.

But here are three ways to make any of them work for your calf size.

Add a Boot Band
Take your boots to a local cobbler – many can add an elastic panel
Order custom made boots (see this list off custom barefoot shoemakers)
