Plus range sizing
The best way to determine the right size for our Plus Size range is by measuring around your ankle and calf.
Plus range size guide is as follows:
- 2XL (Ankle 11.5-13 inches) (Calf 18-21 inches)
- 3XL (Ankle 12.5-14 inches) (Calf 20-23 inches)
- 4XL (Ankle 13-15 inches) (Calf 22-25 inches)
- 5XL (Ankle 14-16 inches) (Calf 25-28 inches)
- 6XL (Ankle 15-17 inches) (Calf 28-31 inches)
- 7XL (Ankle 17-18 inches) (Calf 29-32 inches)
Finding Your Perfect Fit:
- Measure around the widest part of your calf.
- Consider your shoe size.
Choosing the Right Size:
- Use your calf measurements to find your size on the size chart.
- If you're in between sizes, choose the size that fits your calf best. If you prefer a more firm compression, go with the S/M size; for less compression, choose the L/XL size.
Special Considerations:
- Expect the foot of the socks to be either too large or too small, but you won't notice once you wear them.
- If you prefer a more firm compression, go with the S/M size; for less compression, choose the L/XL size.
Wearing Your Compression Socks:
- Upon first wear, the compression will feel firm, especially if you're new to wearing them.
- Pull the socks up as close to knee-high as possible for the correct amount of compression.
- Compression socks should feel tight and appear stretched when worn, ensuring effective compression therapy.
Care Instructions:
- Hand wash after each use for longevity, or use a gentle warm wash (30-40 degrees) with similar colours.
- Avoid wringing; gently squeeze out excess water.
- Use gentle detergents, avoid fabric softeners and bleach.
- Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry.
- Avoid drying in direct sunlight or on heaters/radiators.
- Replace socks every 3-9 months to maintain optimal compression.
Material Composition:
- Our socks are made of a 65% nylon, 30% polyester, and 5% spandex blend.
