    I don't know exactly. I'm too tired to go up and check, but my calves are above average for sure. I can't fit my legs into most tall boots, I haven't tried wide calf boots yet though. My calves have always been muscle, it's definitely genetics. I have never seen a woman with bigger calves than my mom at her size.

    13.7 inches and I am 5'5.5" eh, could be worse. They're always an insecurity of mine. Oh well :-)

    5'2:", mine are 15 1/4" ... I've always had big calves and ankles. I walk a LOT. Mine are solid. They are the only feature/measurement that has not budged an iota since I've been losing. They've stayed at 15 1/4 from the beginning. Definitely NOT happy about that.

    Never thought to measure! But at 5'2" they're 14.5 at the thickest part of my leg. I'm content with my legs. Arms are a different story...

    5'3, 128 lbs, and 14 inches. Pretty big compared to the rest of me, but I can't complain because it's all solid muscle :) Makes finding skinny jeans that fit right a giant pain in the butt though :frown:

    Damn! Well I'm 5'3.5" and I have 16.5" calves!

    Must be from lugging all those illegal drugs across the border! (I really hope someone gets this reference...)

    I did! It was some idiot politician :) But I don't remember who.

    Replying to OP: I'm 5'7.5, 137lbs, & calves are 13". Calves are fine, but my bingo wings are the real chunky part of me.

    My big calves are a very muscular & sexy 19". When I was at my highest weight (327), they were 25". Now that is the size of my thigh! My calves will never be very small because of my build but I'm okay with that.

    ETA : I'm 5'5" & 235-240 lbs right now.

    5'6" and mine are a spindly 13", lol. They'd look fine/nice if it weren't for all the muscle I have above the knee. It's like my calves got completely different genetics (and they don't ever gain fat, either)!

    My wrists and ankles both are much tinier than the rest of my frame, too. I get little on the extremities, a bit like an ostrich ;)

    edit: It's me! :D

    I have this problem too.I keep wanting to know if they ever will get smaller or just better defined? Will they get smaller or larger if I exercise them more? Right now they are pretty solid.:sad:

    Huge. You don't want to know. My calves are horrible. I can't wear boots at all. It's just bad all around.

    I'm 5'3" with 16" calves. That isn't what bothers me...except that I cannot find tall boots in a size 8 that fit. Oh well.
