Sorry! Someone had to make that joke!

Hey, mine are not cows, they're bulls.

I was gonna say... my waistline may be cow... but my legs are the one part of me still in shape... it's not my fault God gave me softball sized calf muscles!

My calves are just under 16 (15.5 or so, naked). The standard hose sizes fit fine. I LOVE the Lewis hose from the Scottish Tartan Museum.
The ones I got on clearance from them are on the tight side, but still work OK.

So, I'd say 16 is probably on the "high" end of the normal range, but works with normal hose sizes.
