how to measure, 661 pads.

It has the sizing chart listed on the website:

L(TOP 18.5" BOTTOM 9.5"😉

M(TOP 16" BOTTOM 9"😉

S(TOP 15.75" BOTTOM 8"😉

Just measure the diameter of your leg at the ankle (bottom)

and measure your thigh about 3 inches above your knee (top)

This should give you an idea about sizing

I wear a large (5'9" tall and weigh @ 185)

how long are the large pads, I have thick legs but they aren't very
long. by there size chart I should be the large, but if they are long
at all I won't be able to wear them.

Don't be too concerned about the length. They fit us short-legged people
quite well. I wear a large and have a 30" inseam. They sit on the top of
my shoe and extend a fair amount above my knee, adding a little extra
protection 😄

In contrast. I am 5'9" 140 lbs, and the small 661s fit me snugly. I
was worried when I ordered small because I thought they might be sized
for children, but I'm happy with the fit.

I'm 5' 4" 160 pounds. and I have pretty big calf muscles. I think I'm
going to just give it a try though. I wonder if mediums would still
work, even if there a little tight.

Measuring the 661 or Roach pads by girth is silly IMHO. The more
important measure is length unless your legs are really fat or really
skinny. Length is important because you don't want the pads to be so
short that they slide down your leg when you crash. If the pads slide
down they expose the top of your knee. What's the point of knee pads
if the knee protection just slides down during a crash?

I'd go for the longest size that you can fit on your legs.

I have a brand new set of Large 661's.
Measurements are:
Length from the bottom up to the first articulation where the knee can
bend: 13.75 inches
Length from the bottom up to the second articulation where the knee can
bend: 15.5 inches

The pads flex at the two articulation points. To fit the large you'll
want your shins to be long enough so that the articulation points can
fit over the bend of your knee (basically the top of your kneecap). So
measure from a little above the top of your riding shoes up to the top
of your kneecap. For me the pads tend to fit best with the bottom
articulation at the bottom of the kneecap and the top articulation at
the top of the kneecap or thereabouts.
