Sit the person down with their foot flat on the floor and their knee at a 90 degree angle. This contracts the calf so we get it at its biggest measurement. In this position, the person can measure themselves accurately or be measured by someone else.
You want to measure the ankle circumference at the smallest point (above the ankle joint, not around the maleoli - just the skinniest part of the bottom of the leg).
You then want the calf circumference at the widest part.
Shin length is measured from the pit of the knee down to the floor.
Height of the person in cm.
Shoe size in UK sizing.
You want the tape measure to hug the skin but not be digging in.

Excellent product and service
the ordering is straight-forward, the response informative and the service quick but most of all the ability to have a sock that fits me (and is durable), it great.
Excellent Professional Advice and A1 Items
Think I had hit my fourth pair of compression stockings purchased online, all claiming to be XXL, however none of them would go near my large ankles and calves. I was starting to get really anxious until someone recommended this excellent company. The measuring was easy to do for the made to measure stockings, they are not cheap, but you get what you pay for. They fit me perfectly, I genuinely can not believe. I have surgery scheduled abroad and have to fly home post surgery and at last have the reassurance i have protection for my legs. Don't hesitate.......worth every penny!
Worth every penny...
The made to measure socks are so comfortable whilst providing a firm support to my legs, especially the ankle now fitted with a Titanium plate and screws following a bad break.
Everyone I dealt with was so professional and very caring.
Great People , great product, great service.
Thank you
Joe
