Great, but runs small
Bought these to help with low blood pressure, as well as shin splints on long runs. They're great, easy enough to get on (as far as compression socks go) and I can feel a difference right away. Fair warning though, they run small. My calves are 37cm, but I sized up after reading some other reviews, and am glad I did. I don't think I'd be able to get these on if I had gone with the "recommended" size.... Show more

Great Choice for evening and/or recovery
There are days when I still have evening plans after a tough day on my feet. Or maybe I will be whipping up something needing time in the kitchen. These are perfect to wear under my jeans with sneaks or even under dress socks. Just the right amount of compression to keep my legs comfortable. I plan to buy them in black when they return to stock. Good quality. My calves 16 inch.... Show more

Great product, best colour!!!
Love these calf sleeves, have helped me manage some on-going calf tightness I was feeling during/after runs. I was between sizes (XS and S), probably would have prefered to go up a size but then again the compression level is good on these as is (not too tight, just a bit of a wriggle to get on and off). Overall I love them! Would buy a second pair in same colour if they came in a light speed type fabric for hot summer runs.... Show more

Issue with the size
There was a contradiction between the size chart on 2XU’s website and the one on the package.My calf size is 15in, which means size S on 2XU’s website but size M on the package. (Based on the website info, I ordered S).I contacted 2XU and asked which size chart I should rely on. The answer : if the package is intact and the item has not been worn, I have the option to return it for eirher exchange or refund; they sent a 25% voucher applicable on my next purchase; and I ‘’may be in between sizes’’I decided that, since I am in between sizes, the smaller size would do a better job and I opened the package.Big mistake. The size chart on the package was right. My new calf sleeves are too small.This is my second pair of calf sleeves from 2XU, and with the first ...

runs small
I really like my X Compression Sleeves, but after measuring my calves it said I would fit easily in a medium. When they arrives I tired to get them on and was unable to get them over my calves, and it was cutting off my circulation. I ordered a large and they fit just right, firm and supportive. Wore them in a 1/2 ironman last weekend and they worked great, limited the swelling in my feet which made the run more comfortable.... Show more

Size guide is too small
Awarded one star because they ripped. I followed the size guide and measured by calves as being on the low end of the size guide for a large. I was able to get them on, and they are of course tight and they really helped with my run, however I was trying to pull them up a bit and they just tore at the front. Either the size guide is wrong or the material is not stong enough.I will be taking them back and getting something different.... Show more

Sizing Guide Misunderstanding
This is my second review. Confirming that I had to return the socks as they would not fit over my size 8 foot. I measured my calf and ordered the size M as recommended . Disappointed because I had paid express delivery to get them in time for an event.... Show more

Terrible Sizing
The sizing guide is just completely wrong, I literally bought an XL and they are the tightest things in the world, I can not even put them on. I measured my calves in which I am 8cm under the recommended XL size, so why do they not even fit all the way up my calf. Absolutely stupid and a waste of time.... Show more

Too tight
Material was good but the fit wasn't. Im 12.5 inche. Acvording to their size chart, it should have been the size I chose up through 14 inches, but was way too tight. It cut off circulation into my feet and took a long time to even get on. I feel like if it were a size bigger that it then wouldn't stay up on the upper portion of my calf. I love the other 2XU products but I'm not a fan of these. I'm not quite sure how the fit could be that far off, I measured twice.... Show more

X Compressoon Calf Socks
I currently have compression socks size Large which are a little tight so I purchased 2 pairs of X Compression Calf socks size XL. The problem is they fit like the size large socks which are too small. I also purchased a size XL compression socks which fit great. There seems to be no consistency with your sizing. By your chart I should be a Large but it seems your sizing runs small.... Show more
