Can someone tell me how to size knee warmers? When I look at the sizing charts for Pearl Izumi or at Perfomarnce.com it does not give a sizing chart for knee warmers. Any ideas? If anyone knows how to size legs warmers please pass that along too.
Try them on too...different brands have a different fit.
yes, try them on. I'm 6'-1" and 163 lbs, not particularly big legs. I have the large pi knee warmers, and they're more like leg warmers. only about 4 to 5 inches of exposed leg between the warmers and regular cycling socks.
Understand that a LARGE is really more of a LONG. I got some large ones (since that is my short size, 195lbs, 5'10"😉 and they really are a bit too long, but for the closeout price I won't complain.

I'm actually not a fan of them anyway. They actually start to bug my knees after an hour or so. I can ony guess that it's the ever-so-slight tension they place on my kneecaps. It's not my imagination, either, as I usually forget I'm wearing them, and then as the ride progresses I get a nagging ache. Then I look down and remember...
It is true the size of a knee warmer is related to it's lenghts....and so are leg warmers...for instance while i was in europe i bought large leg warmers and i swear if i was 6 foot 5 they would still fit (i'm 6'1 with verry long legs)....the best is to try them out but if you cant...best of luck
