I just wish they were brown... Hot Topic "Wanted" Brand "Triumph" style Buckles make them expandable pretty nicely. Could use extra padding on soles, but easy enough to remedy Again, just ish they were brown, but I can use these for other costumes too in black

Aaaaaah, very Jedi. Yeah, it's a shame that they're not brown, but they're still good costume boots.

Ysee, I always have trouble finding boots that fit correctly, for a couple of reasons. I wear a size 11 (yay for my super big gross feet, i wish they were smaller) and apparently, according to the shoe companies, the only women who have size 11 feet also happen to have huge calves. I can find my correct size just fine, but the boots are almost always too big in the calf for me, and not even just a tiny bit too big, like twice the size of my calf and it makes me look like im a little girl who is wearing her mommie's boots.

The usual problem around here is the calf is to small, perhaps the local shoe repair could take them down in the calf, if they can add, they should be able to remove.

I got lucky, that was one of the earliest part of my costume I found, before being in the assembly. I passed trough a place selling shoes that was on the verge of bankrupcy. I wanted to look for shoe parts to use for buckles for the belt. I wasn't even looking for boots. I asked if they had brown boots that would fit me, out of the blues, thinking "why not ask? they don't have buckles, but while I'm there..." I can't remember how much I paid, but it wasn't too much. They are not fancy, pretty much original trilogy-like. Just what I was looking for. Pure luck. My guess is, your brown boots will call you, just let them do so

I just got these www.zappos.com/earth-acclaim-bark-calf They fit my calves perfectly, even with Jedi trousers tucked in! I ordered a size 8 and I think I could have done with a 7.5, but that's out of stock. I've been wearing them around the house since I got them and they are very comfortable. They don't seem to need a break in period. Right now, they are also ON SALE. They are Earth brand, with the negative heel. I've never worn any before but they seem fine.
