My calf measures 17" and I see that the Large is from 17-19" - wont the large be loose on me with the extra two inches?

Nothing loose about these i got a medium and they are awesome i can barely get them off after a day of bike riding.

No, because the material stretches and in your case, the material will stretch to accommodate your calf and won't be baggy. I found it to be just right.

On the large splint, the strap reaches reaches about 18", but at least on me it doesn't hit on the widest part of my calf. My calf is 20" at the widest point and it juuust fits me.

Yes, it fits VERY well, much more comfortable than I thought it would be... had a friend, well over 6' tall try it, and he didn't need the extension... Hope that helps... VERY NICE holster... I did not get the calf strap, but would want to try it... think it would help a lot..

True. I am a slender 6'2. The large size that I order is loose around the calf. However, there is a cinching mechanism at the top that keeps this in place. Plus, the material is rigid enough that it doesn't roll down.

My calves are 15 in. and I have the small/medium....for you, I would suggest the medium/large.....

That's the problem I had! The size is based on measuring around the knee. The website lists one sizing chart, but the packaging lists another. I measured 14 inches, bought a medium, and it was too small. Here's the website: https://www.kneesupport.com/mcdavid/. I think the issue was that i have muscular calves, so my proportions may be different than their "standard". My suggestion: buy a size larger than you think you need. Good Luck!

18 inches may be too big. Try the next size down. You can always return it. :)

the real issue is the circumference of your calf. mine is 18" and i need a large. i wear a size 10 shoe and the foot of the sock is more than big enough.the chart on the box says up to 14" calf-small 15 &16" calf medium, 17&18" large, &gt;18 XL i would recomend you get the firm as they will of course get weaker as you wear them. they last me about 2 months. best regards

I weigh 200, and unless your calf is freakishly big, it should fit. It stretches and seals. I used the 30 dollar one the doctor sold me a few years ago and did not want to pay that much again. This one is a little thinner but worked well for 3 weeks. As long as you are careful, it is a great product. Now this wont fit over a boot or large cast. Also if you have pins, be careful you dont snag it. Also it came with 2 in a box so i figured i would have a spare if needed. I only used 1... i was happy and would not hesitate to use this product.

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.

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

I am a 34 and the large fits well (not loose) with the elastic adjustment out (did not tighten up). You could go with an XL and tighten up with the elastic adjustment if loose although may be baggy on your legs.

I have a 22" thigh and the medium was perfect, so you'll need at LEAST the XX-Large. I emphasize at LEAST

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.:)

Hello Lynn. I have a 12" calf. 5'2" I ordered a medium and they work fine for me, I must say the band is tight.

I have the same problem but they ask for the calf size and mine fit great. I will admit I fell right between two sizes and took the larger. Here is a link for the sizing chart. http://www.foryourlegs.com/skin1/images/medicalfchart.gif

Hmm. I don't know what size calves I have or a measuring tape, so used the scientific method. I grabbed a nearby USB cord and wrapped it around my calf and then measured the cord with a yardstick. According to my precision method, ;) my calf is 15". When I wore mine there was over-lap, so there was room to let the guards out, but I'm unsure how much more. Not one of my better answers, but maybe you can get a rough estimate from that until somebody with a more accurate reply comes along. I did like the guards, for whatever that is worth.
