I think it is genetics.... me and my training partner (black) have solid upper bodies body our calves / ankles resemble twiglets. Whilst im see fat pub men white log calves and ankles...yeah it may be fat but it still looks better than my twiglets.
lol I have sprinters calves (small calves with a long achilles) so there's a big gap between where my calf stops and my ankles begin, I've come to terms with the fact they're never going to look huge.
Very good article on isolation training for calves

doesn't matter how big i get my calves
>>>> skinny ankles
just makes your calves look tiny
notice its the same for black guys
i do get vex when i see day 1 stick thin 16 year olds with logs for lower legs
its most noticeable with trainers on but with just socks calves look meaty lol

I would do a short 15mins light work before to warm up and then a proper session after
