If I am 4'11" and my calf at its biggest circumference is 15", would I order small or medium?

I would definitely order a small, I am 6'2 and my legs are the same circumference and the medium was too big and stretched the entire length of my leg, someone at your height from what I've seen would have to go small, possibly xsmall if the small ends up being too long, I was able to return the mediums no problem in exchange for the smalls.

15-16 inches is actually medium! the size chart is being updated and will reflect the correct measurements shortly!

Im 6ft and 167 lbs with average calfs so a medium fits me perfect. Its supposed to fit snug with compression & after running a half marathon in them, i forgot i had them on.

From the Mizuno website: These measurements should be taken 1" above the knee. small (11 & under) - under 13.5" medium (12-15 yrs) - 13.5"-15.5" large (16 & older) - Over 15.5"So, yes, I would order size small.

It actually goes by your calf size circumference.11-14 inches is Small,13&1/2"-16" is medium, 15 &1/2 -18" is large, & 11&1/8"-12&3/8" is extra large,12.5"-13&3/4 is 2X and 21.5-24 " is 3X according to my Truform box. I hope this helps you out.:)

I would look at the sizing chart. I believe it shows sizes in adult sizes though so keep that in mind when ordering. I'm in my late 20's and a medium for me fell below my calf. Something to consider. Best of luck, Kay Dubs!

If your 6 feet tall and very slim I would say a small, medium may slide down a bit but you will get more length coverage. Medium build go with medium for sure. Large build go with large. When I say build I mean roughly how big your calves are. I'm 5 feet tall ordered a small and I'm always pulling them up in between sparring rounds. Hope this helps!

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

Actually CB I believe the XL start at 14.5 and go over 16+ which I assume 17 should be covered. I got the L which cover up 14.5 but I like it to fit tight on my calves and it gvs just right up to 15" . Hope that helps.Good luck

I'm male and a bit over 6 feet tall with 13 3/4 in calves. The medium calf compression sleeves are ideal in length but a tad loose fitting. Since you're a foot shorter than I, I suspect that medium will be too long.

Linda, I found the chart to be accurate. I'm 5'9" and 195 and got the XL (largest size). I agree that large doesn't sound right to me, for you. Did you use a flexible measuring tape to measure your calf circumference? A piece of string will work.

Yes. My calf measures 15 inches at its largest. The Donner's measurement, the circumference, seems to be about 14 inches. It is difficult to measure since it is open for only part of its "circle". The front of it is open to let the foot and leg in. Since the calf tissue is not bone, it does give, and I can pull the Donner up my leg to my knee, where it stops at the bone. Hope this helps. Let me know if you need clarification on anything I said.

That's correct the top of calf. Order one size smaller than the measurement says to. They don't sell by the pair either so order 2

Hi Susan, if you look at the pics displayed of box of stockings on amazon, there are 3 pics, one of them shows a size chart. You measure the circumference of your ankle, calf and thigh and that will tell you which size to order, small/Med/ or large. You can zoom in on the size chart, this should help. Measurements are the only accurate way on compression stockings as length and girth matter. You do not want them too short or tight...but you also don't want them too tall and loose, if there is too much excess stocking, it can bind worse than if too tight. They should not feel like your typical pantyhose. But a comfortable firm compression. Hope this helps.

I'd get a small. I have a Medium for my 45 pound Cattle Dog. While it would cinch down quite a bit more, 20 pounds is a lot. If I were Carol R, I'd go with small.

I'm 5'5" tall but my calves measure 14.75" around. What size should I order. The small I'm guessing would be too tight and the med-large would be too long.
