My husband has a very wide/thick calf...has anyone measured how wide the straps can accommodate? Thanks

The straps are 15 inches long up to the velcro, if you add the back you have another 6 inches making it 21 inches. I have the medium splint.

They can adjust pretty wide. What you should be concerned with is the Velcro. The Velcro will wear out rather quickly as mine did and you will have issues fastening the straps, especially with a big calf.

I measured it for you - the strap is about 18 inches long and the back of the brace is about 8 inches. Hope this helps.

Sorry, the band is only an inch wide. Perhaps one of the other stretch out straps that are sold by this company would have wider straps.

I would be a little hesitant. My calf is 14 inches and they are just right so I would say that they would likely be tight. hope that helps.

It should, I purchased them for my husband whose calves are around 20 or so inches. But make sure they are the real thing. My box was different than the box I purchased from the store and shipped from China which made me think it was a bit of a knock off. Also the sock was a bit thinner. This was not something I had ever considered. I now check the sellers location to ensure its reliable. Happy New Year!

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

Anna: My husband has a size 10.5 foot. The XL is plenty big enough for him with a little extra room to spare. I tried it on too - I'm a women's size 7 and although it covered my whole foot the velcro straps (one about 3" thick and the other about 1.5" thick) are so adjustable that I was easily able to pull it shut tight enough to work on my foot too. I'd recommend getting the XL and just pulling the straps closed as necessary if your husband's foot is smaller than a 10. It really is a great product and is helping my husband's bad ankle a lot more than we expected. Lisa

I have a pretty slim/average calf (not skinny or muscular though) but I dont know diameter. They do not leave any marks or "too tight" lines on me.

Rather than just measure the strap length, I measured the approximate circumference with the straps connected, including the knee pad width to give you a better idea so you can use a tape measure on your legs to confirm if these will fit. Strap below the knee: Maximum about 26 inches with strap fully stretched (20 inches minimum size un-stretched). Strap above the knee: Maximum about 36 inches with strap fully stretched (22 inches minimum size un-stretched). I think these pads offer a lot of sizing flexibility, but my experience has been that the straps need to be fastened very tightly or the pads will slide on your leg while in use. Hope this info helps!

I wouldn't say they run wide because I have a wide foot and these are still a little snug on my foot. But evidently I don't have a big calf because the sides slap my legs. So I would say that they run wide in the calf but not necessarily wide in the foot. I wear a 8 1/2 wide & ordered a 9 and they were still too small--especially they were not wide enough! I re-ordered a 10 and they fit but still a little snug.

I don't have a measurement, but my husband is quite a bit larger than me and a larger build - closer to 190lbs and only 5'9. He can wear a jacket or hoodie and still wear our toddler when he was in the 30lb range. This is compared to my 5'5 and 105lb frame - significant size difference, and there was still slack on my husband with the straps.

Dear NelehS,A sizing chart would help, wouldn't it? The labelling isn't the only problem with it, I had a bad experience with this boot. The gel pack insert dries out and actually hurt his leg. The boot below was easy to size and fit for my grandpa, and has worked well for us.Sammons Preston Heelift Glide (081613819 Smooth Standard)Good luck!

I bought the bag for my husband and he said it should fit. Its a very wide bag.

There is a lot of 'give' in the elastic straps. It is possible this brand will fit you. Try it. It is free returns if it does not fit.

Well I measured my calf and its 16 inches. I then opened the strap all the way and it'll hold something bigger than that. I would say 18 to 20 inches. Now this is the large size splint, I don't know about smaller ones. Hope this helps.

I have the same problem but they ask for the calf size and mine fit great. I will admit I fell right between two sizes and took the larger. Here is a link for the sizing chart. http://www.foryourlegs.com/skin1/images/medicalfchart.gif

Hello, I measured the strap that goes around the width of the foot and it can fit a 10 - 12 inch width foot or 26 - 30 cm width foot. You can adjust the strap easily enough. Hope this helps.
