I need a mens calf high boot with a 20 inch circumference no were I could find one?

That is almost a custom order, or at least a really expensive boot. I know a great place to get them, if you want them to last for a long time, but they are VERY expensive, and I doubt they'd be your preferred style.

Have you thought about a lower rise boot with leg wrappings?

I have but don't like the overall look.

Any thing at this point can't hurt me. I was looking a custom ordering a pair of boots, but at $300... ya... Can't hurt to look lay it on me, please!

Yeah, the ones I'm talking about will cost more than double that without a custom order, but trust me, they are worth the price. They are very well made and the soles are so well attached that when you finally get around to resoling them (in about 12 years for someone who is hard on footwear), they have to grind the sole off the rest of the boot. They stand by their products, too.

Bonus, though... they can fit up to a 20" calf without customization. The width, however, might be an issue, and is the only reason why I plan to custom order mine (13EEEE is not a normal shoe size). You might be able to get away with an off the shelf pair, depending on how wide your foot is.

Don't be put off by the initial picture of them, as they are customizable as to base color and trim color. I plan on getting a pair that are black leather with black suede trim, and I want to send in my own buttons to be used.

Hey I know these guys. They come to the renaissance fairs here in Florida. ;D Thank you for sending me there link but your right, they are a bit out of my pocket.

Barf and Flarf my good man. I do try to go to both, more so Barf than Flarf.

In that case, you might know of Count Adolfo or Seamus Rumkiller, both of them very good friends of mine.

Perhaps I have seen them,but I do not know of them.

Does any one you think I could get away with a nice pair of DR Martians? :-\

I would avoid lace-ups as a matter of course. They're too contemporary. If they make a pull on or a buckle variety, that would work. Even a side zipper variety would be okay, so long as the zipper was covered.

Well I have a nice pair of black dress pull ons, but I don't think they would be good for fighting in.
