Pasuot Cowboy Boots
Cosmopolitan Assistant Editor Sam Olson loves these cowboy boots because they fit her wide feet and calves. Typically, with pointed toes and a tight silhouette, cowboy boots can be tough to shop for if you have wide feet, making these stand out with their wide calves and foot fit.

- Heel height: 2.52”
- Opening: 16.93”

THE REVIEW: “I have wider feet and calves, so I have trouble finding knee-high boots that aren’t too tight—and these fit just right. They didn’t require any breaking in and felt great upon my first wear,” Sam Olson says. “Plus, I constantly run around NYC in these and they’re just as comfy as they are cute.”

Dr. Martens 1460 Smooth Leather Lace Up Boots
Dr. Martens are classic for a reason: they immediately make any outfit look cooler and fit a wide (lol) spectrum of foot sizes. The brand doesn’t offer wide widths specifically, but these classic 1460 lace-ups are unisex, so they have a bit of a wider toe box than the brand’s slimmer styles for women. They might take a second to break in, but once they do, you’ll never want to take them off.
- Sizes: 5-12, half sizes not available
- Width options: Standard
- Heel height: 1.125”
- Opening: Lace up, unspecified
- Colorways: 9
MY REVIEW: I got these for winter in NYC, and while they did take a while to break in (and a couple blisters), they were worth every moment of discomfort. The boots didn’t make my toes feel squished, or feel restrictive over the tops of my wide feet. They also lasted through at least 4 winters of intense use.

The thing about wide boots is that they tend to be chunky, which means they can get heavy quickly. These Maguire boots stand out because they’re super lightweight, making them a breeze to walk in. The rounded toe leave room for wide feet, but the boots don’t have any zippers or laces, so if you have an unusually high arch or tend to be sensitive on the top of your foot, these might not be the best boot for you.
- Sizes: 35-42, no half sizes
- Width options: Standard
- Heel height: 2.5”
- Opening: 8.6”+ circumference
- Colorways: Sand suede, Black suede, Black leather
THE REVIEW: “Was looking for a versatile fall boot, and look no further—this is itttt. I love the chunky heel and extra added height, but still feel secure in my footing, even on rougher terrain,” one reviewer, who identifies as having wide feet, writes. “These can accommodate a thicker sock plus an orthotic… 11/10 happy.”
