Miss Elastic Ladies Boots Ireland

Miss Elastic Ladies Boots in Ireland

Discover the latest Miss Elastic boots at The Shoe Horn in Skerries, Co. Dublin. Made in Spain, Miss Elastic do one thing and do it exceptionally well: the sock boot. Every style is built around a stretch shaft that moves with the leg, giving you the sleek, close-fitting line of a fitted boot without the rigid shaft that makes most of them so difficult to get on, and every pair simply pulls on, with no zip. The range runs from knee-highs in black, brown, burgundy and navy to ankle sock boots, with platform versions of both, so this is a small collection with no filler in it. We offer free delivery on orders over €69 anywhere in Ireland, and free returns within 30 days on every order.

Why do we love Miss Elastic?

We love Miss Elastic because they've made knee boots wearable for a lot of customers who'd given up on them. A traditional knee boot is a fixed shape, and if your calf doesn't match it, no amount of wanting the boot will help. Miss Elastic start from the opposite direction: the shaft stretches to your leg rather than the other way around. Add a manageable heel and a Spanish-made finish and you have a boot that looks considerably more expensive than it is, and that you can actually wear to something.

Will Miss Elastic boots fit my calf?

This is the question we're asked most about knee boots, and Miss Elastic are one of the better answers to it. The shaft has real give, so rather than a fixed circumference you have a boot that shapes to your leg, which is why customers who've struggled with standard knee boots often get on well with these.

We'd stop short of promising they'll suit every leg, because calves vary enormously and so does how high you want the boot to sit. What we can say is that there's far more room for manoeuvre here than in a structured leather boot. If you're unsure, give us a call on 01 8490847 and we'll talk it through, or call into the shop and try a pair on, which takes five minutes and saves a lot of guesswork.

How high are the heels?

Most Miss Elastic boots sit on a heel of around 5.5cm, which is enough to lift the look without being hard work for a day out. The platform styles go higher, at around 8cm, but a 2cm platform under the front of the foot means they feel lower than the number suggests. The heel and platform heights are listed on every product so you can compare.

Are Miss Elastic boots true to size?

Yes, Miss Elastic boots generally run true to size in length and follow European sizing, so your usual size is the right place to start. Because they pull on with no zip, they need to hold the foot, so don't go up a size for extra room. If you're between sizes or unsure about a particular style, give us a call on 01 8490847. We're happy to advise, and with free returns within 30 days there's no risk in trying a pair at home.

What fitting are Miss Elastic boots?

Miss Elastic boots are a standard fit through the foot, and the brand doesn't make separate width fittings: the stretch is in the shaft rather than across the joints. If you know you need a wider fitting, Remonte boots are made entirely in G and H fittings, Jana is an H throughout, and Gabor and Caprice have G and H fittings on selected styles. Our size guide explains each fitting in more detail.

Are Miss Elastic boots made without leather?

Yes. Miss Elastic use animal friendly materials rather than leather, so the range is worth a look if you're avoiding it. We'd stop short of describing them as fully vegan, as we can't confirm what's used in the adhesives, but if leather-free is what you're after, these fit the bill.
