Sock dreams sells them in their plus size section although they don't call them wide calf. They do usually give detailed fit information including stretch. You'll have to google their site though, because any links will be deleted.

Foot Smart has many socks with wide calves. The have plain styles and jazzy compression styles. They also have dressy nylons with wide tops. They provide socks that diabetics can wear with no top elastic.

Check them out. I have ordered shoes, slippers, footies, and the compression socks from them over the years.

@LibbyladyI love Foot Smart too! I can't think of a foot problem they don't address!

If you buy any of their socks, don't put them in the dryer, shrink really bad.

I also agree about Foot Smart. They also have socks that do not have the seam across the toe.

I like Dr. Scholl's socks for diabetics for myself and DH . My calves are not wide and DH's border on skinny. It seems that a lot of sock manufacturers feel that the top part of a sock should be about 2 inches after stretching ! Not good for anyone's leg and foot health.

The one's I mentioned come in knee high and lately I have seen them in many colors. I love them for the winter. I buy them at Walmart and most box stores carry them. They are very stretchy and wear well.
