Do you recommend sizing up or down when you are between sizes when measuring your calf?

If you are used to wearing compression socks you could size down. If you are not you might want to size up until you get a feel for what level of compression works best for you. I wouldn't size down if you are planning on wearing them for extended periods of time.

Hi, I looked at their actual site for sizing. From there I took my own measurments and from those I tried to make the best decison from there. Also, if your half measurment is a size larger than what it should be for a smaller size based on the measurments for your thight, base your size off of your calf instead or the brace will not fit properly.

Dear Erica!As you checked the sizing, you would be on the Small one for your height, but medium with your calves. I would suggest the medium. It won't be longer that much and also, you shouldn't take the small, because it would be so tight, unhealthy.

When I contacted a representative from the company, she explained to me that if your calf is 16" or larger, you will want to get the XL Gravity Boots. Unfortunately, she wasn't so sure on any ankle measurements though. I hope that helps.

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

Dear. CustomerAny leg size below 18" Mid Calf Circumference (Large = Regular Size) will be OK to use. Once air inflates to sleeve, inside of sleeve will be smaller than you leg size.

They are sized correctly. If you are an I'm between size I would go down as you want maximum compression. Hope that helps

I would go with Large. I'm 5'2" with 15" calves and I got medium, and they weren't too tall or anything. I think the mediums would be a little too tight on 16" calves.

Hi Shannon, my size comparison is based solely on my calf size. Maybe this will give you an idea of what size to get. The widest area around my calf measures 13.5 inches. The small size fit perfectly. I had to put some effort into pulling it on...but it was tight fitting and stopped the pain when I ran. Hope this helps

It is based strictly on your calf measurement, which may be large if you are very athletic. You cannot extrapoloate from your height and weight. If you are borderline you probably could size down

The length is approximately the dame from small to large to accommodate a variety of calf lengths. However, the calf size in width/circumference is what is important. You don't want it excessively tight. Measure carefully. I found this product runs a little smaller/tighter than other brands.

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

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!

i think for both it depends on ur size, its a good product i've been using mine for a year no runs so far and the compression seems still good on my calf.

Go to Absolutemedical.com. It will give you directions and pictures on how to measure correctly for ankle measurement, calf measurement, and calf length. It also explains the compression difference you will need to know in ordering the correct size.

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.
