Has anyone had a pair of long boots made? I have an odd shaped right leg thanks to an injury and struggle to get boots to fit ...(the wide part of my calf starts too low) can anyone give me any recommendations?

I have had three M2M pairs over the years. 2 by Equiclass and the third Joshua Jones. My favs by far are the Equiclass. Lovely soft leather no need to wearing in. If you can afford the outlay they are worth it. Look after them (I only ride in mine, no stable chores and no mud), keep them clean and my first pair look as good as the day I bought them about 5 years ago now.
The mistake I made with the Joshua Jones was having elastic inserts. I thought they would help with changing seasons and thickness of leg wear. Big mistake. The elastic means the leather never stretches and they were always too tight so I sold them and bought a second pair of Equiclass but measured over winter thickness breeches.
You always get a perfect fit (I struggled with boots being too tall) and you can can go as mad as you like with colour

Another vote for Tuffa.
I have short legs, skinny ankles, wide calves and very wide feet!
Never had a pair of long boots in my life.
They fit perfectly, so comfy and the ladies are so helpful.
I couldn’t go to the shop to get measured in April because of the lockdown and was worried about getting diy measurements wrong. They sent out a total of 5 pairs of stock boots so I could try different styles to compare and so they could double check my measurements sounded right.
