Wellington boots for the 'wider' calf!

Hi all
I know there are some older threads out there dealing with this but my problem is two fold:
a) it's slightly (despite the weather) unseasonable to be buying wellies
b) I've got quite wide calves (curse that gym!) so the ones I have found (Homebase) either don't fit or are so snug I'll never get a pair of jeans/joggers on with them.
Any ideas where I can buy some that might accommodate - dog walking without them in this unpredictable weather is quite a trauma!
Thanks in advance!

hi ali!
i have the same problem. sigle do a ladies wellie with a wider calf, called huntress. sorry, they are quite expensive, not very mse, but last forever, and look the part. fit the bill for me. you can usually find them stocked in hunting/fishing/outdoor pursuits shops.

Hi
I also have this problem and normal wellies either don't fit or look rubbish but i've just bought a pair of RHS limited ed. Rose half digger boots and they're fab I got a size bigger than usual and there's load of room. Again not cheap think I paid £29 including P&P but they are worth it.
