Size Development for Your Target Market
Four-Point Size Development
Compression performance depends on more than shoe size. We develop size ranges using ankle circumference, calf circumference, foot length, and lower-leg length, then adapt the grading to your target market and product type.
Market-Based Grading
Size charts aligned with your target customer profile, sales region, and preferred measurement system.
Four-Point Size Development
Standard compression sock programs are graded from ankle circumference, calf circumference, foot length, and lower-leg length.
Extended & Specialized Sizing
Wide-calf, plus-size, medical, and thigh-high programs may require additional circumference and length measurements.
Pressure Verification: Approved samples from selected sizes can be pressure-tested before bulk production to verify the intended graduated compression profile.
Wide-Calf & Plus-Size Compression Socks
Extended-size compression programs developed with separate ankle, calf and leg measurements rather than simply scaling up standard sock sizes.
- 01 Custom ankle and calf circumference ranges
- 02 Independent size grading for extended sizes
- 03 Pressure verification across approved sizes

What Affects Custom Compression Socks Pricing?
Custom compression socks are quoted from the finished specification—not from the logo alone. Even at the same order quantity, unit cost can change with the yarn, compression structure, size range, design method, functional features, packaging, and testing requirements.
We review the following eight factors before preparing a quotation.
Yarn & Material
Standard nylon or polyester blends are generally more economical. Bamboo, Coolmax, merino wool, recycled yarns, and other specialty fibers may increase material cost but support stronger product differentiation.
Compression & Knitting
Higher compression levels, more complex graduated zones, denser knitting, and tighter tolerances may require additional development and pressure verification.
Size Range
Standard grading is usually the most efficient to produce. Wide-calf, plus-size, custom grading, and additional size combinations require more sampling and production setup.
Logo & Design Method
Simple knitted logos and limited-color patterns are generally easier to produce. Embroidery, complex jacquard, full-color printing, and all-over patterns require different processes.
Functional Features
Seamless toes, targeted cushioning, arch support, reinforced heels and toes, anti-slip grips, open-toe structures, and zippers all affect construction and production cost.
Packaging & Labeling
A basic poly bag costs less than a printed sleeve, retail box, rigid gift box, or multi-pair pack. Barcodes, inserts, labels, and market-specific artwork should also be confirmed.
Order Quantity
Larger production runs usually improve manufacturing efficiency and reduce unit cost. The MOQ can be used to validate a new product before scaling into larger repeat orders.
Testing & Documentation
Pressure testing, material testing, third-party reports, and additional compliance documentation may be included depending on the product specification and destination market.
