Pull on boots = cankles?

[joules]

I bought my second pair of pull on boots. Just wondering if all pull ons inherently make you look like you have cankles? (My first pair were the tall Hunter rainboots...which had to go back because of my short legs.) Seems like all pull on boots usually do right? Like Uggs or rainboots.

I am deciding on whether or not to keep these boots. I was looking for something with a bit of a heel yet comfortable enough to chase around 2 DSs and that accomodate my slightly wide feet and are between knee-high and mid-calf height. These boots fit all my criteria....but leave my ankles looking really shapeless. But they are also on SALE!!

Sorry I don't know what cankles are. I'm sure I probably have it if it is something unflattering!

But I do want to know where these boots are that are on sale. You never know, I may end up NEEDing them!

Cankles = calf+ankles. There's no definition between the two.

I never really thought of these boots that way. I think it kind of leaves you not knowing what's underneath them. Kind of like a loose shirt or bootcut jeans vs. skinny jeans. You don't always need to define the details. :)

I'm going to return them. They are really comfortable. But I think they make my legs look too big. If I had longer legs they might have worked better. I think they look like rainboots on me. DH said they look like firefighter shoes on me. I agree.

:yeahthat:
But definitely return them if you don't like the way they look.

Both pull on, but maybe a little (little) narrower?

Not on sale though (YET!)

Thanks! I like that first pair....will have to add to my wait and watch list.
