If you crochet it takes no time at all to make a pair. Etsy would be a good place to look for handmade cuffs.

Can you knit or crochet? Tons of patterns for them, I've made me dd some, since they are small they're pretty quick to make.

Cuffs inside the boot (on the leg) or outside the boot (on the boot) or both?

No advice on the boot cuffs, but I do wonder if you can share a good source for basic boots for fuller legs. I just got a nice pair of tall coach boots at Nordstrom. They have good wide calf options. |

Mine are from an Etsy seller. However Amazon carries a great assortment and you can specify 'Wide Calf' ones.

I have made at least 30 pairs using this pattern. It's a pretty generous size and you can easily reduce the size by taking out 6 chains from the initial chain which is what I did on all of the them. I made several pairs for myself, my sisters, my daughter & her friends. I donated a few pairs to a charity craft sale. It takes about 90 minutes to make a pair. Well worth the $3.50 for the pattern - very easy. They are so cheap to make. crochet boot cuff pattern |

I've seen boot cuffs at every store from Target to Marshalls to Macy's & everywhere in between. A small kiosk in a mall offered monogramming, which was cute! Happy shopping...

But I never would have thoughy of going to a plus sized store since I'm not plus sized but apparently my calves are! |

I ordered boot cuffs from Kohl's that I gave to my sweet SIL and found another pair @ Burlington that I kept for me. But I haven't worn mine yet. If I lived in a cold climate, I could see having tons of colors. I think they are so fun!

There are only a few craft i cant do and knit or crochet I was just looking at Etsy and they have all sorts of cute cuffs in many different styles and colors. Many of the sellers will make them according to your measurements. Page after page comes up when you do a search. I would just order from Easy if I were you. I don't sell anything because then I feel like I have to guarantee what I make. I am kind of lazy when I crochet and if I make a mistake I'd rather figure out a quick way to hide it rather than pull out and correct it. |

since I am about a inch bigger than the normal boots, I decided to give a few cuffs off of wish a shot. got them for under a 1.00 and going to see if i like the feel of them. If i like them will look into better ones. Did get 3 lace ones.
