Do you recommend sizing up or down when you are between sizes when measuring your calf?

If you are used to wearing compression socks you could size down. If you are not you might want to size up until you get a feel for what level of compression works best for you. I wouldn't size down if you are planning on wearing them for extended periods of time.

I purchased X-large and they are 6.5 wide at the top multiply that by 2 and add 1/4 inch, stretch to 8 comfortably, maybe large would be better. I have never measured my calf, but they are large from playing soccer.

Measure around the largest part of your calf,Regular is 13"-15"Large is 15"-16"If you get less than 13 go for small

I think it might depend on your calf size. Some people have bigger calves and going smaller may be more difficult putting on & removing the brace. However, over time the brace will loosen up. I know my has and I have to pull the strap more these days. My calves are a little smaller so I think, I could have went down another size. I will most likely purchase another one to see.

My calf size is 14 inches and it fits conformably. I would imagine the larger the calf the tier it will get. I sometime prefer tier when walking so i put on two pairs one over the other.

I would say either the L or XL. Obviously the L will have more compression on a 19" calf but the XL may not have enough compression for you.

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!

Measure around smallest part of the ankle and around the widest flare of the calf. Then measure the length of your leg from the heel at the floor to the bend in the knee. Small - 7"-8-1/4" ankle, 11"-14" calf. Med - 8-1/8"-9-5/8" ankle, 13-1/2"-16" calf. Large - 9-3/4"-11" ankle, 15-1/2"-18" calf. X-Large - 11-1/8"-12-3/8" ankle, 17-1/2-20" calf. 2XLarge - 12-1/2"-13-3/4" ankle, 19-1/2"-22" calf. 3XLarge - 12-1/2"-13-3/4" ankle, 21-1/2"-24" calf... Length to Knee - Regular - greater than 15". Short - 15" or less. 2X&3X - up tp 18".

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.

Well, that's a tough one. I went small but my lower measurement was barely a 3 and my thigh was a 2 and I went with a 2 and I haven't had any problems.. Looking at the website it says Ur lower is a size 4 and the upper a size 2...id probably split the difference and go size 3...but that's me.. At Ur measurements on the bauerfiendusa website, 3 would be just 3/8 of inch too big on thigh and 1/8 inch small on the lower so that's what I would do.

I'd go for the medium. I bought a small and wear a size 7. My toes for right to the edge. The calf wouldn't be an issue due to the air pump, it will keep it tight.

I wear men's size large. You can measure the length from the bottom of your foot to your knee and measure around your calf for sizing. I choose men's for a better fit for me, even though the foot is a little large for me.

I would suggest a large because as you can see the brace goes half up the thigh and partially down the calf. Hope this helps.

Just kinda go with what size you are.I am a recent parapalegic I have to wear them every day the rest of my life.I was 6 foot 2 when I landed in chair I use a large.I think there measuring is kinda hoopla.If you are small get small,large get large.Just remember they are compression stockings.They must work right.They are very helpful,but they can also be damaging.

When I contacted a representative from the company, she explained to me that if your calf is 16" or larger, you will want to get the XL Gravity Boots. Unfortunately, she wasn't so sure on any ankle measurements though. I hope that helps.

On the back of the box are the instructions on how to measure to determine your size. I enlarged the photo of the back of the box to determine what size I needed, my calves are 22" around and hence I ordered XL and it works perfect! I started with 2XL and they work as well, only difference is the foot is too large and I have extra room in the toes on that pair.
