I think they do stretch. It's neoprene so it has some give. I know my coworker doesn't have the thinnest calves either...

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Have you taken a whack at Salonpas patches?
Hm. I shall try them! Thanks!
Sophia, I love those boots. The tops should have some stretch to them.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Time Warner keeps giving me the number I just called to call to solve the problem. This is an epitome of the right hand not knowing what the right hand is doing.

Sophia, I wear Bogs and I have the big fat Gullo calves and they work fine. Mine are about that tall and it doesn't go to the top of my calf, rather the under curve part.

It's raining but they haven't cancelled soccer. Grace and I are sitting at home. We've done rainbow writing and we've done math workbooks and we've done all sorts of other stuff. But she wants attention and I want a moment. So I just dumped a box of buttons on the floor and she is sorting them by color.
Look! A math project that I don't have to participate in. Whew.
Bad mommy. No biscuit.

As a kid--and a not so small kid--I adored sorting the button box. Big box of buttons, metal cupcake pan--I was good for hours.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I have a short pair of Western Chief boots--similar to Bogs. They fit great and have a lot of give. And I have thundering, roller derby calves.

Time Warner keeps giving me the number I just called to call to solve the problem. This is an epitome of the right hand not knowing what the right hand is doing.
When I tried to call Comcast about internet issues, I kept running into the problem where the machine would ask for the phone number associated with the account, and I'd enter it, but then, rather than doing the sensible thing and looking up what account was associated with that number and transferring me to the regional Comcast office that was in charge of that account, they'd transfer me to the regional Comcast office in charge of accounts for the area code of that number. Which was useless, because my account is in Pennsylvania, and my phone is a DC cell phone. After getting caught in a loop several times, someone finally told me that, when the system asks for my number the first time, I should enter the phone number of the pizza place down the street. That will get me transferred to the right regional office, where a person will answer the phone and ask me for my name and address, which they can use to pull up my actual account.
