Hi how's the sizing. My gf's calf measured at 14.25" which size should i get? Are these true to size?

My calf measures 14"; I got the Large size. They fit VERY snuggly. The Medium would have been too small.As I noted in my review, I'm 5' 4"; the sleeves came down to the arch of my foot, which was OK. Actually felt good.

I am 5"8 and I ordered a medium. Someone in my class thought they were tight on her calves, but she has issues with nerves in her legs. If you have average sized calves and no sensitivities, they should be fine. Mine are very comfortable and don't move around.

I just paid $26.49 for these at a local pharmacy and I LOVE THEM! Here's the sizing chart if you haven't already purchased yours: Small: ankle 7"-8.25", calf 11"-14", medium: ankle 8 3/8"-9 5/8", calf 13.5"-16", Large: ankle 9.75"-11", calf 15.5"-18", X-Large 11 1/8"-12 3/8", calf 17.5"-20", 2X-Large: ankle 12.5"-13.25", calf 19.5"-22", 3X-Large: 12.5"-13.75", calf 21.5"-24". Length to Knee: Going from bottom of heel to the dip behind and below the knee, Regular is greater than 15", Short is 15: or less. For 2X and 3X the lengths are up to 18". It also says that men should choose an open toe style if your shoe size exceeds the following: Small: Shoe size 7, Medium: Shoe size 9.5, Large: Shoe size 11.5, X-Large: Shoe size 12.5, 2X-Large, Shoe size 12.5, 3X-Large, Shoe size 12.5.

I purchased X-large and they are 6.5 wide at the top multiply that by 2 and add 1/4 inch, stretch to 8 comfortably, maybe large would be better. I have never measured my calf, but they are large from playing soccer.

large is perfect unless you have freakishly large calves. Also, buy 2 pair only because the quality is so good, best I've seen. The cheapo focus mitts revgear puts out is really nice aswell

I would get the size for the 14 leg cause the way these are made and feel the 16 would be too big. My mother has the same problem.

On the back of the box are the instructions on how to measure to determine your size. I enlarged the photo of the back of the box to determine what size I needed, my calves are 22" around and hence I ordered XL and it works perfect! I started with 2XL and they work as well, only difference is the foot is too large and I have extra room in the toes on that pair.

My mothers calf=14.5", is longer legged, 5'6"@ 146lbs, size10 1/2 shoes(larger bones)& always needs 'large' & w/gloves=x-lrg. They hand wash well, accomplish task & need time to develop a 'system' for pulling up in increments...superior to beige elastic pull-ups

Hello. I wear a size 7.5 with an average calf size. I bought the Med/Large. As the previous reviewer said, they are snug so the added size will be a plus. They work wonderfully and I will be using them again this week, when traveling.

That's the problem I had! The size is based on measuring around the knee. The website lists one sizing chart, but the packaging lists another. I measured 14 inches, bought a medium, and it was too small. Here's the website: https://www.kneesupport.com/mcdavid/. I think the issue was that i have muscular calves, so my proportions may be different than their "standard". My suggestion: buy a size larger than you think you need. Good Luck!

I received the M/L and wear a size 10 in a shoe. The heel part seemed to big for my feet. If u r a size 8 I would go with the smaller option. As far as the medium calf thing goes my athletic calf's couldn't handle it. Some of there products seem to be targeted for average legs. If it has a design be careful because it will leave marks up and down the leg. You could try the M/L to be safe and just return if they do not work.

I don't know. I have never measured my calf. I think mine is a regular calf size. I am a swimmer. I went with my shoe size. I use them for flying. I am a flight attendant and I needed a lot of compression. They really do the work. I am satisfied with my purchase.

I purchased the sock size that fit my shoe size (which was a medium). I have a 15 inch calf and the socks fit quite comfortably. I have problems with fitting socks over my calves. Not so with these.

Hi Karen, I went to the store and bought the first pair. They measured my legs and gave me one of about 5 sizes that these come in. I then went to amazon and bought two pair at almost half the price that I paid at the store. I have found these stockings to be comfortable and have noted that they do not roll down or crease much if at all. I think if you follow the sizing chart correctly you should be happy with them. I cannot say that my calves are unduly large, but I started wearing these after vericose vein surgery last year, I am still wearing them. Please feel free to contact me if I can be of any other help.

I have pretty large calves and wear the IV size...they are going to and are supposed to be very snug fitting. I wear them for a couple days in a row so as to not wear out the tightness. I own 3 pair and wear them daily to my CrossFit workouts; wouldn't go without!
