Per tradition, I interrupt your summer to bring you the narrow-calf angle on Nordstrom Anniversary Sale boots.
To be honest, I'm not that thrilled with the three boot styles that Nordies' search engines deem narrow calf. What I am excited about is the anniversary sale's inclusion of one of my past favorites, the La Canadienne Stefanie (pictured at left).
Unfortunately I don't have on-leg photos of this one, but a department store clerk brought it to me years ago, in the early days of this blog, and not only the shaft but the ankle fit like a dream.
This is one of those relatively rare times a label has kept a classic slim calf style in rotation over a long period of time. And I suspect they're still making it from the original pattern. From new "good bad reviews" on the Nordstrom website -- you know, complaints that the shaft is too tight -- I have reason to believe the store is listing the Stefanie's top circumference at about an inch larger than it actually is. But do comment & share your experience, if you get a chance to check this one out in person.
In leather or suede. Find it at:
Nordstrom, of course -- before the sale price expires!
Mary, did you try a size 7.5 or 8? Whatever size you choose always seems to work for me! :)
ReplyDeletePriya, I'm so sorry; just realized that for several *months* I've not been getting comments for moderation on my email. I'm pretty sure I tried a 7.5 in this one. Did you end up trying them?
DeleteTry Coach and Four at DSW, they have a 12” circumference, I was pleasantly surprised
