Can anyone tell me if the socks are stretchy for around the calf?

I purchased these for my son and he loves them. He says they fit well and are very comfortable. Yes, they are stretchy around the calf.

ly to Louis's question, my husband says these socks are not compression socks. Rather they are extremely comfortable and feather light. Teri V.

These socks are basically regular, stretchy socks with the cuff ending up slightly above the ankle. They are NOT as plush as women's spa socks. Hope this helps.

They are indeed tight, and narrow, but not over the calf. They are lower than that.

I bought these for my teenage son who doesn't have large calves per say, but I did check socks to answer your question, and they are quite stretchy. So I would think that they would work for you.

It really depends on your weight and calf size. Seems like they run a bit small. Granted I have pretty big calves, but I wound up having to gimmick them to be able to take them on and off regularly. So just beware. They are nice, but just a little small.

These only help the boot to hold its shape to prevent unwanted creases in the leather. However, it does not stretch the calf wider. Hope this helps.

I don't sell these socks. I have them. I'm a big guy, 6'5", and my calves are 19". I tried the XL and they are to tight. The XxL fit and work great.

They do stretch pretty good, you would probably be o.k. with the 8-11 size, unless there is a tendency for the persons legs to swell up..

I would say yes. The foot area is cushioned but not so thick you can't get shoes on.and the calf part is thinner and nice and loose which I need with my diabetic swelling.

No, because the material stretches and in your case, the material will stretch to accommodate your calf and won't be baggy. I found it to be just right.

They are not thin but they do have nice padding. I personally do not care for these socks as the do not stretch easily and I struggle to put them on my size 12 feet.

the real issue is the circumference of your calf. mine is 18" and i need a large. i wear a size 10 shoe and the foot of the sock is more than big enough.the chart on the box says up to 14" calf-small 15 &16" calf medium, 17&18" large, >18 XL i would recomend you get the firm as they will of course get weaker as you wear them. they last me about 2 months. best regards

My guess is, that this is a one size fits most. My calves are a little over 18" at the largest point and these fit just fine. Just a little more info. I really like the way they feel. May not need them as much since I learned my solius muscle was my problem and now I know how to stretch it separate from my gastrocnemius. They really keep your calves warm, they are really sweaty after a rigorous workout.

These are sized by your calf measurements. Take a tape measure and note the distance around the widest point of your calf. Then, you can use the Skins sizing guidelines to determine your appropriate size. It's important to get the compression right, as too tight can cause discomfort and too loose you might loose the benefit of the sock.

They stretch a great deal. I would suggest getting one pair and try them first. Hope it works out for you. They are nice.
