AI-generated illustration made for this guide, not a product from any shop listed.

Quick answer: at UK 12 nine shops list boots, but most are showing the same few ranges. Long Tall Sally has the most, with knee-high, riding, Chelsea, ankle and over-the-knee boots, all Standard Fit, and most of them running low when we checked. Crispins Shoes and Otto and Ivy have a few of their own. Yours and Evans show Long Tall Sally’s boots, and Next mostly does too. Dr. Martens, ASOS and Marks and Spencer have unisex boots only, and ASOS DESIGN stops at 11.

A women’s UK 12 boot is still possible, but this is a size where you buy what exists. Long Tall Sally is the reason it is possible at all: the list on its own site runs to knee-high, riding, Chelsea, ankle and over-the-knee boots. We read the size grid on every item, and almost all could be picked, though most were running low. After that the supply is thin. Crispins Shoes has a few, ankle boots among them, and this is its top size. Otto and Ivy lists its Evelyn, Marnie and other boots at EU 46. Everything else is unisex or a repeat of Long Tall Sally’s range.

We checked each shop’s own website on 31 October 2026. Long Tall Sally’s size 12 listing and each product’s sizes, ASOS’s filter, Crispins’ size 12 boots page, Dr. Martens’ 1460 page and Marks and Spencer’s filter were read directly, and Next’s size 12 boots listing was read before Next refused further reads. Evans’ details come from its own pages as shown in search results, and Yours’ size 12 was read on 30 October. Otto and Ivy labels boots in EU sizes. We have left Very out at 12: its size filter showed items not available in that size, and it refused further reads. Delivery and returns terms were read on 30 October. We did not check prices, and availability changes daily.

Sizes are the range in each shop’s boots filter or pages. Long Tall Sally’s boots are Standard Fit, so that is the width shown for Next, Yours and Evans. “Not checked” means we did not record that detail. Delivery and returns are the standard UK terms read on 30 October 2026, as shown in search results where marked.

One range, four shop fronts

Do not read nine shops as nine choices. Long Tall Sally’s boots appear on its own site, on Yours’ and Evans’ sites and across most of Next’s list, because the first three share a catalogue and Next lists the brand. Dr. Martens’ unisex boots appear on its own site and at Next, ASOS and Marks and Spencer. Crispins Shoes and Otto and Ivy are the only others with boots of their own here, and Crispins has only a few.

Where boot ranges stop below 12

  • At 11: After 8 Shoes, whose size links end at UK 11, and ASOS DESIGN, whose Rafe and Charlene top out there.
  • At 10: DuoBoots, and all the E and EEE wide boots at Long Tall Sally, Yours and Evans.
  • At 9: Simply Be, JD Williams, Hotter, Pavers, Dune London, Clarks, Cosyfeet, DB Wider Fit Shoes and Shoe Zone’s women’s boots.

Styles you can still find at 12

Long Tall Sally’s list at 12 still spans knee-high, riding, Chelsea, ankle and over-the-knee boots, so you do not have to settle for one shape. It is the only range here with all of them. Crispins’ short list includes ankle boots, and Dr. Martens’ 1460 is a lace-up. What you will not find is a heavy choice of wide fits, or any boot from Marks and Spencer that is not a unisex brand.

How to measure your feet for size 12 boots

Long Tall Sally’s chart gives 296 mm for a women’s UK 12, against 288 mm for an 11, and Dr. Martens gives 31 cm. As most women’s boots at this size are Long Tall Sally’s, its chart is the one to use for those, whichever shop you buy from.

How to measure your foot length A foot on a sheet of paper with the heel against a wall. A line marks the tip of the longest toe, and the distance from the wall to that line is the foot length in millimetres. Wall Foot length, mm 1 Heel against the wall 2 Mark your longest toe 3 Measure wall to mark, both feet
Measure both feet in the evening, when they are at their largest, and use the longer one.
  1. Stand on a sheet of paper, heel to the wall, in the socks you plan to wear with the boots.
  2. Mark your longest toe with the pen held straight.
  3. Measure wall to mark in millimetres on both feet, and compare the longer one with 296 mm.

Width at size 12

Long Tall Sally’s boots at 12 are all Standard Fit, and its chart gives a joint girth of 270 mm. Dr. Martens gives a foot width of 10.3 cm, with no width options, and says its unisex styles are wider than women’s. Beyond that we found only ASOS’s UK 12 Wide on one style and Otto and Ivy’s 46W on one boot.
