Calves too big!

My calves are massive. It's (nearly) all muscle, but my calves are massive. I'm really self-conscious about them, to be honest.
I do a lot of walking.
Should I be stretching more after workouts and walking to avoid huge calves? I'm not anti-muscle or anti fitness, but I do look really out of proportion and need bootcut jeans just to fit my calves. Any ideas?

I'd say go with the ole "higher rep / higher endurance" method. My lower body is the bigger part of me, so i use average weight, & higher reps (15-20) & as far as my cardio goes (treadmill & walking/running) I go for longer, rather than higher incline.0

I have MASSIVE calves too.. pretty much all muscle.. once I started using the HIIT types of training.. they have decreased an inch.. and my thighs ( unfortunately not all muscle) have decreased 4 inches.. Maybe go with the higher intesity and see how that works!0
