Once upon a time I bought a lot of socks from sock dreams! They have such nice things, but not all of them would fit over my calves, or the amt of stretch would make them shorter and then they'd dig into my calves and make a line. It was hard to tell which knee socks were wide enough? I think they have more options now.

looks like they would be too small for me :/

Redress NYC has fleece lined "Teggings," which are their tights/leggings combo product. I don't love them but that's bc the fit is funky on me. They are v warm, though.

Sock Dreams has a much better selection of socks for larger calves these days and gives really good info on how much things stretch. I've got a bunch of their thigh highs that fit me no problem.

But if anybody finds fleece lined tights in proper plus sizes (to fit over 200 lbs) please let me know.

Plus size fleece lined tights tip:

Berkshire "cozy tights" available to fit up to 5'10", 230 lbs. I'm 5'6" and about 215 and the 3/4x fit me really well. They aren't fleece in the truest sense of the word, but they are warm and fuzzy and I'm quite pleased.
