Probably a long shot, but do these work for deadlift socks? How far up the shin do they come on anyone who has ordered a large?

These socks go all the way to the knees. My 13 year old son wears them as he has a U.S. 10 size foot.

They are not ideal for heavy dead lifts. They will last until you can't stand the smell of the sweat that's soaked in and are great for everything other than heavy Deadlifts. Get something more heavy duty for Deadlifts

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.

I would choose another option for fat skis. These fit perfectly for my 82mm waist skis but when trying to put them on the 115mm waist skis (maybe 128mm around tip/tail), there isn't nearly enough padding to span the base of the ski. I'll be looking for something else for those skis.

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.

Ditto's to get large and trim down if required. I'll throw another wrench in the works though. If you are NOT a strong heel striker when running (which is a good thing) and actually land somewhat mid-foot or rather flat, I'd suggest the full-length version of their lift, because the lack of height on one leg can still be noticeable with negative effects with the forefoot lower. Then you'll really want large to give enough room to trim the same as the insole to go under it.

Body weight and height are not necessarily good in sizing yourself for shin guards. It does not address if you are a person with a large calf and thigh muscle. Nevertless, XXL would be about your size.

According to the Thirty48 website, these are 15-20mmHg. Check out this link for more complete info: http://www.thirty48.com/cp-compression-socks-series-recovery-sleeve

I'd say it would be about 50% thicker than your average pair of athletic socks, except on the bottom where I'd say it's about double the thickness and maybe even a little more. If you're concerned about shoe fit with these, if the shoe is snug in normal socks, it will be a mite tight. I've never had a problem with hiking boots or athletic shoes such as you might find in Merrell's or Keen's inventories. But I can't wear them with my cowboy boots.

Go to skins.net, choose a pair of compression socks then hit "size guide". Sizing is by calf size. The socks are amazing, I have five pairs (and no relation to the company). Also, if you're on the cusp between sizes, go down not up. I learned that via trial and error. Lastly, buy from "Skins" (even thru Amazon) and they will trade, refund, whatever is needed.

My calf size is 16.5 and the socks fit perfectly. I can insert the shinguards without a problem (this are ~ 3/4 thick shinguards). I hope this answers your concern.

You have my problem Ben. When I said they fit as expected, they do, for a while. Stretch way to much, for me, they don't go high on ankle. Avoid these. Go with Hanes, They have a size 13/15. I think when they say large means they fit my Grandson. As I'm sure you know, any sock of this type, large don't cut it.

I'm short, but I don't know if that makes a difference. The socks fit me about 3 inches above the top of my ankle. They are not binding, yet stay up quite well.

They're not long, just barely covering the ankle. However, if you go to the socks' manufacturer's website, you might be able to find what you need. (www.bhmedwear.com)

If they are light compression it may help, but I will be honest with you. This product in my opinion was not meant for anything but socks and it does work great for that purpose. I do not wear the compression stockings so mine is only a guess. I am truly sorry that I am unable to be of more help to you. May God bless you and yours always.

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!
