I am a woman with long legs and am 5ft 10 with a size 11 feet, do you think I should order MENS sockwell compression socks? LG/EL

Well, I'm sure they'd be close to correct for you. A women's size 11 is equal (roughly) to a men's size 9. I don't recall the size range for the large/x-large socks but if size 9 is covered, they should be fine. There are much fewer color and design choices in men's and little color.

In my case, my doctor measured me and told me I needed large based on my calf measurement. However I don't think the answer is a simple one. Much like shoes, size or 'large' size probably varies depending on brand or specific sock. I don't know if there is a difference based on gender. Simple answer is try these url's for a quick answer. http://www.jobst-usa.com/wear-care/measuring.html http://www.zensah.com/size-chart/ female specific:http://www.brightlifedirect.com/gender-womens-brands-plus-sizes.asp I think the best answer is to check with your doctor if possible, especially if the prescription for the sock is for the medium to higher compression socks

I cannot answer your question specifically but, I can tell you that I have found these very adaptable. I use lg/xlg for my size 11 foot but in a pinch am able to use my wife's sml/med if necessary. Hope that helps.

That's correct. I believe 9 to 11.5 is considered "Large". With other brands you might consider going a size down to ensure a snug fit, but my experience has been that you don't need to do that with these socks. They fit pretty snug by themselves.

Hi..my size is 8 in women's and I find that a sock size of 9-11 fits just fine. Same for 8.5 ..same sock size as well. Hope this helps:)

Hi Steve C.Long story short... I wear 10 1/2 EE Mizuno Wave Alchemy and 11 EE Asics GT 2100 series, as well as Gel Nimbus... but when I buy these particular Wigwam socks, I buy the extra large size, because I have foot problems and tight socks just don't work for me. Pinched nerves and bad circulation are not fun. The extra large size fits me perfectly after the first washing... and are only slightly loose before that first laundry trip. Good luck

I can't directly answer that question - what I can say is, they are very stretchy and, unless you have an extreme length (long or short) they will probably fit. I have a fairly long leg, and they fit fine. I would check the return policy, in case they do not.

I suspect they may be a little large for womens' thin legs. They work so well, however, that it would be worth ordering a set to try them. Make sure Amazon will refund your money if you have to send them back. Check on return delivery costs to make sure they won't hang a big return cost on you.

I wear size 10.5 to 11 men's show (European 45) and size XL is perfect but has a little room in it. I would say a L should work unless you like your socks really tight fitting.

Edwin, First of all, I apologize for taking so long to answer. These were originally ordered for my husband, and were to small for him. I am female, stand about 6'. These are knee socks and in the large size, tight on my calves - enough so that I have had bruises. The compression is somewhat gradual up the sock but still quite tight at the top. Hope this helps.

I'm a plus size girl and wear a size 10 shoe and I'm 5'9" tall -- that said the Sockwell's always seem to feel like they're too small and waaaaaay to stretched out. If you aren't plus size, it make work though.

I'm 5'10 and the go over the calve, most of the firm compression is around the ankles. the compress to the knee is light tomedium. the are heavy and warm for winter, too warm for summer. cushioning is good and make my leg feel great when I'm on my feet for a few hours. they are worth the money. I'm not sure if a larger foot size would make the shaft taller too. I have for size 12 .

You would get the men's 4-5/women's 6-7 get a pair of neoprene socks for added comfort and fit

In US sizes, it sounds like you should purchase a child's or woman's sock. The socks are unisex in appearance. You might find a standard sock sizing chart online for guidance.

I ordered a men's large because I wear a size 12 shoe. The socks were easy for me to put on. Once I had them on they don't feel overly tight or loose. The Toe end isn't too tight either! These are the best support hose that I've ever had! Hope this answers your question!

Found the Jobst boxes. Have two types. I am a woman but wore Men's medium 20-30 compression knee high socks in black before my ablations. They are 73% nylon, 27% Elasthan/spandex. They wear well and have comfortable feet for my large feet. Also have woman's large, thigh high, 15 - 20 compression in natural which is not enough compression for me. Fit well and are 66% Nylon, 19% Elastan/Spandex and 15% Silicone. (The silicone sometimes makes red itchy spots on my legs.) Sorry I did not find the boxes when you first asked.

Mine fit true to the size chart. I'm male and have size 10 feet. Large fit me perfectly.
