A reduced profile legrest system has a legrest frame having at least two opposing edges, a width, and a centerline being a point that is half of the width. Also, at least two linkage mechanisms can each deploy and retract the legrest frame. Each linkage mechanism can have a first end and a second end. The second ends of the linkage mechanisms are attached to the legrest frame, and are offset from at least one of the two opposing edges toward the centerline. The offset can be a distance between the second ends and is approximately 15% to approximately 50% of the width. The offset can also be a distance between the second end and the centerline and is greater than 0.0 and less than or equal to 0.70 of the first distance.
