Gaiters for thick legs

[FattyBinz]

I've tried FL and Kuiu's biggest sizes. FL's don't even come close to being big enough, and I can get the Kuiu's on but they are tight when I have my boots and thermals on...so tight that the velcro starts pulling apart when I flex my ankle forward or back while taking a step up or down hill...so it makes a lot of noise. Any recommendations for gaiters for the thick-legged-boys?

I got these in XL to fit over my pac boots this year and like them. I will measure them in a bit, but they seem even bigger than the 17-18" the size chart says.

I was blessed with large calves also -just measured and they're 17.5". Outdoor research has several sizes available but their sizing chart sucks. I will check the size of mine tonight.

Thanks for taking the time to do that. That 16 3/4" is just my bare leg, so once I include pants and thermals and boots, I think they will be too tight :/
