Disclaimer: as fun as it might sound, these tattoo designs won’t be the ones depicting young cows, but rather the ones meant for your calves – as in the portion of your lower leg. However, it would be truly charming if someone were to get a calf tattoo on their calf. Or, a tattoo of your own calf on your calf. Now that’s meta!
Anyhoo, let’s go back to calf tattoo ideas here, shall we? Since a calf usually offers a pretty moderate canvas size for ink, the artwork here knows no size limits. It can be just a small tattoo perched nicely over your Achilles, or it could very well be a calf sleeve tattoo, covering the skin entirely.
Really, the choice is all yours! But choose wisely, for here on this list. We have many men’s tattoo ideas that are as edgy as possible and women’s calf tattoo ideas that are as ethereal as butterfly wings. Of course, no one’s really labeling the designs of these calf tattoos, so pick whatever you like.
However, if you suddenly feel the urge to do something way bigger than planned after looking at these gorgeous tattoo ideas that we’ve rounded up here, we won’t take the blame. In fact, after gathering all these cool tattoos, we’ve already made an appointment to see our tattoo artist. Just know that the temptation here is huge.
Now, ready to check out these cool calf tattoo ideas? Sure you are! They are just, as usual, a bit further down, and once you are there, give your vote for the best tattoos. After that, there’s just one thing left to do – share this article with your friends!
