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.

There is no label inside the socks that indicates the fabric. To me, it feels like a cotton-polyester blend knit. They stretch, and, in my experience, 100% cotton does not stretch.

I'm not certain how big my calves are, but about half the boots that I try on are too tight around my calf (probably a sign they are a bit larger). These socks are obviously going to be tight and can be tough to get on, but I am able to wear them and they not feel too tight.

I do not have large calves. However they do stretch and are tough to get on but any GREAT stocking will be. Hope this helped ya out!

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.

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!

they are very wide on the calf. they flop a lot - make sure you wear socks with them for best comfort.

I don't know if they give the measurement around calves but my husband are real big. Around calves would matter

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.

Yes they are a generous knee high length. The picture is very deceiving. I am 5'6 and have muscular calves and they are perfect. Love these socks!!

Hi Pam, sorry, I don't know if they do or not. I experienced calf muscle cramps while wearing them. They just were not for me.

The socks fit very good around the toes. They are seamless and have a nice stretch. They do not bind and are comfortable around the ankle and calf. After several days of wear they still are comfortable. The black socks feel better than the white socks.

No, they are not, but my husband and I both like them because they are comfortable, they stay up and they do not pinch or squeeze the leg area because of the elastic. These socks have held up well. They won't last for ever, but we like them so much we have gone back and purchased them several times. We ordered the larger size and it works for both of us. We are so glad that we found them. We did not want anything heavily cushioned. Good luck with your decision.

I had not thought of them as compression socks, but in a way they are a light compression because the upper sock retains its hug on your calf nicely, unlike some discount socks that stretch out quickly so you have to tug them up your leg and back in place after a while. The foot portion is not as 'huggy', but it holds its shape and position on your foot nicely. They are very comfortable!

Hi, sorry I dont have the sock on me right now to check the tag. You should ask the seller. I can tell you that they feel like average quality socks. Meaning they are comfortable, but not plush. I hope that helps.

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.

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