If I am 4'11" and my calf at its biggest circumference is 15", would I order small or medium?

I would definitely order a small, I am 6'2 and my legs are the same circumference and the medium was too big and stretched the entire length of my leg, someone at your height from what I've seen would have to go small, possibly xsmall if the small ends up being too long, I was able to return the mediums no problem in exchange for the smalls.

I have the large and my knee and 2' above are more in the order of 15.5" and 18". I definitely would get the Medium.

Foot size doesn't matter for sleeves. Order by calf size. If in doubt on size, go smaller.

to find out what size to order, find out the size of your leg. if you look at the size chart on the box, there is a spot on amazon to see the size list under the product pic, it will tell u what size u need by the inches of your calf. As far as the compression goes I go with the firmest because the mediums slip down my leg and compress where it settles instead of the whole calf area. Hope this answers your question.

I would think you could comfortably wear a size small. I am 5'4" and 130 lbs. The small fits pretty snug, but they are high-waisted, which keeps them from cutting into my hips. They cut just about mid-calf. My fear is that a medium on your height would ride way too high on your torso and be too long in the legs. Good luck!

i have a 17 inch calf and I bought the large which is fine, you might consider medium, not sure how sizes run.

I originally ordered a s/m and had to return them. They were for small feet. I was unclear on the sizing at first, as well. The S/M on the package fit up to a size 6 or 7. The M/L fit sizes 7 or 8 up to 10 or 11. I have a size 10 foot and went with the M/L. I would say a size m/l would be the best way to go for a size 8 foot. I don't think the sizing will matter for the calf. I am pretty sure the sizing is based on the foot size. The calf size seemed the same amount of material for both sizes. Hope I didn't confuse you. M/L :) would be my suggestion. I ordered that size for my friend who has a size 8 or 9 foot and she liked them. I originally ordered a s/m and had to return them. They were for small feet.

I didn't find the info until I received the product and saw by the measurements on the package that I had ordered the wrong size. Later I found if I googled the product, I could find a website with the info needed: circumference Size ankle calf length to knee Small 7" - 8" 11 - 14" up to 15" Medium 8&#8540;" - 9&#8541;" 13" - 16" up to 16" Large 9" - 11" 15" - 18" up to 17" X-Large 11&#8539;" - 12&#8540;" 17" - 20" up to 18" 2X-Large 12" - 13" 19" - 22" up to 18" 3X-Large 12" - 13" 21" - 24" up to 18"

I got the XL for a 17 inch calf and it feels great. I would go by that measurement to decide.

Hi Susan, if you look at the pics displayed of box of stockings on amazon, there are 3 pics, one of them shows a size chart. You measure the circumference of your ankle, calf and thigh and that will tell you which size to order, small/Med/ or large. You can zoom in on the size chart, this should help. Measurements are the only accurate way on compression stockings as length and girth matter. You do not want them too short or tight...but you also don't want them too tall and loose, if there is too much excess stocking, it can bind worse than if too tight. They should not feel like your typical pantyhose. But a comfortable firm compression. Hope this helps.

take a cloth tape, measure 6 inches down from the center of yor knee cap and measure the diameter of your calf. repeat for thigh measurement. i believe if you look the info on the sleeve gives measurements for the sizing.

I have a very large calf and I have a lot of room left that I could expand to. I weigh over 300 lbs. If you would like me to actual measure, please let me know and I will do so. I have a size 12 foot and the large fits fine for length as well.

The calf of your leg is the measurement that the stockings are ordered by. A medium stocking has a calf measurement of 15-16". Measure your calf in the evening when your leg is full and your stockings will not be tight . Good luck

I would look at the sizing chart. I believe it shows sizes in adult sizes though so keep that in mind when ordering. I'm in my late 20's and a medium for me fell below my calf. Something to consider. Best of luck, Kay Dubs!

Measure the smallest part of the ankle,widest part of the calf. Then from the heel to the knee bend.Your Regular if heel to knee is more than 15", less than 15" your shot. Then Ankle 7"- 8 1/4" and calf 11"-14" is small. Medium ankle is 8 3/8"-9 5/8" and calf 13 1/2" to 16". You are large if ankle is 9 3/4" to 11" and your calf is 15 1/2" to 18". X Large is ankle 11 1/8" to 12 3/8" with calf 17 1/2" to 20". 2XL 12 1/2" to13 3/4" ankle and 19 1/2" to 22" calf. Got it right from the box.
