Hi, just to let you all know that a lot of high street shops are selling elasticated boots! I was so chuffed at picking up a pair in New Look yesterday. They have several styles, go on a grab a few pairs!

Just checked, they go up to a 9!! 🙌🏼☺️

I know how you feel, I used to love shopping for my winter boots. Many a tear but so glad to see reasonable priced boots.

Try going online & looking on wider fit. They are really good, if you phone them they will tell you where your nearest supplier is. Mine is wonderful. I can phone with a design I like & they will tell me if the design would benefit my condition and get the shoe / boot in to try on with no costs to myself. This beats buying online and having to return for a refund!

I really know how that feels bless you. I am about to cut up my Evans wellies to be able to wear out for bonfire night. Embarrassing.com

I've seen the boots in new look. I can't get in any high street wide fitting or elasticated boots 😢. Was very disappointed. Am so pleased for you.

My leg is 40% bigger so it has been difficult, but I was lucky with the ones in New Look. I hope you find something as its so upsetting.
