@Madame:

_Wish I'd remembered to shave my legs before Axel took that fit pic…  :-[[/i]

And put on a pair of boots that weren't broken… Or Vibergs :P_

Glad they are extant!!!

Anybody at IHUK have big calves?  Or know somebody who has?

I have me some fat calves (18" in diameter circumference) and wondering if the socks would be uncomfortable due to this?

[Giles]

I do, but I am out of the country.  If no one else chips in ( @Axel ?), I'll let you know in a week…

[Giles]

These socks are 34cm high (engineer boot friendly), we will release a 20cm version in a fe weeks that are 20cm high (work boot version)

I have 14.5" calves and the socks are already pretty tight. (I bought 4 pairs in Japan)

for sure diameter, not (calf) circumference?

I can try on Monday, haven't had the time on Friday!

Well, I told you I had fat calves…

But you're right, I ment the circumference  ::)

No matter, i´ve got also thick calves, around 16"… I ride my bicycle too often, but i´ve heard women didn´t love legs like toothpicks ::)

[David K.K. Hansen]

…you know what they say about men with big calves...

You won't get calves from cycling! …but unfortunately big thighs which makes it nearly impossible to wear slimmish jeans.[emoji1]

Enjoy ya addiction!

..they don't skip leg day? 

[Dion]

Never ;D!

No.  We're big boned.

@BULLITT BEE I just tried them on and found them a bit snug around my 17" calves. I personally would go with the shorter work boot version. I have pretty wide feet and wear size US11 in boots but liked the rest of the fit (which is usually not the case for me with 'one size only' socks). 
@Winchy finds them just right on his 15" calves!

[David K.K. Hansen]

Thanks for looking into this Axel!  I would go for the 20cm socks myself, but some instances I need something taller and wanted to get Iron Heart if possible.

Hm, decision time…

@BULLITT BEE Chup Socks in L are perfect for me, but not sure if that will be high enough for you..

[David K.K. Hansen]

Thanks for the tip Axel, but thinking I might give it a go with the IHG-29 socks.  Will know soon enough if I made the right choice
