    Boots with big calves?

    what brand of boots have the biggest wrap around the calf muscle i had a head on collision 4 years ago and lost some muscle tissue in 1 leg and now find it hard to find any boots to fit round my left large calf atm im using boots 2 sizes to big for my foot but the wrap around is suitable i would prefer the right size for my foot is there any place that can modify the wrap around on boots?

    Sidi force flex

    Sidi force flex are the only boots availiable that have a fully adjustable calf.
    They fit over my fat legs with knee braces and still do up correctly

    Hurrendously old post I know, but just to add to this, Had a boot dilemma just recently where they would not fit over my knee braces, after trying allsorts, I found some Thor Q1 boots that have a crapload of room and fit over the braces nicely!

    My wife has been in the same predicament, short and large calf muscles. She has been doing the same looking for boots recently, after trying on many brands , she found what she wanted, and they fit very nicely and are very comfortable.

    The Brand is NEO.

    Got them from "HoleShot" Barrys point road Auckland.
    around $180.00

    Apart from shin protection, my AlpineStar Tech 2 shorties are more protective than my "proper" MX boots.
