Will these socks still fix comfortably under the knee for short women?

I'm 5'2" and they fit me fine! You could easily fold them down a little if needed. I think they would stay.

They should work. I'm 5'5 and I pulled them up high this past weekend (as a matter of fact), and it was just across the middle of my knee cap. Normally I wear them just under the knee like any standard knee high sock. Hope this helps.

I'm about 5'4" and I've never liked the over-the-knee styles on me- they seem to cut off at a funny spot. These Sockwells fit just under the kneecap in front and right up to the crease behind the knee.

The "chevron" colored socks are the smallest I have. They are size "small". The socks go by shoe size.

I own 12 pairs. I stand 5'10" and my calves are more muscular than average. These socks go about 1-2" below my knees. The compression seems just right for me but the top 1" could be better if the pressure was less. These socks fit great, like a second skin! I wear them at work, under my 12" high mining boots. They stay perfectly in place the whole day.

They add very little bulk, so they should fit well under tighter shoes. But, as a word of caution and in response to the reviewers who said the socks did not help keep their feet warm, you need to be aware of one of the principals in effect for warmth; you need to isolate a layer of warm air next to your skin. So, if you do not allow enough room around the socks, the warming effect will be greatly minimized.

I am 5'1 and ordered the small. They are right below my knee (like touching the bottom of my knee).

Edwin, First of all, I apologize for taking so long to answer. These were originally ordered for my husband, and were to small for him. I am female, stand about 6'. These are knee socks and in the large size, tight on my calves - enough so that I have had bruises. The compression is somewhat gradual up the sock but still quite tight at the top. Hope this helps.

Yes, they are perfect for under heavier hiking socks. The material is thin but sturdy. Helps prevent blisters between the toes. That is why I use them.

I would get a SM/MD. My shoe size is 8 and that is the size I went with and it worked for me. I am 5'5" and the socks came up just below my knee.

I have only worn these by themselves, but they don't seem at all bulky. Depending on the socks you put over them, they should be okay.

Definitely. That said, I (senior female) wear Men's Medium in compression socks; they always reach my knee--these comfortably so. I am also athletic, with well-developed calves. So, yes!

They are much easier to get on than full length panty hose compression stalkings. They're not much more difficult than putting on regular knee socks.

You should be able to wrap them tightly. I have fairly thin ankles and they work well for me.

I would say no. I am on my feet all day and I wear support stockings with a short pair of crew socks over them and that solves the problem. By the way, when I bought Miracle socks on amazon, they were not near as tall on the calf as the ones I got from Walmart.I don't know why that is, but they were and I couldn't use them.

I am 6"1" and these socks come up to my knees. Reebok makes some good knee highs for women. Hope this helps

My legs are average to slightly smaller size. I am 5' 4" and weigh 145 lbs. Small size would have been ok but, I do not find tight fitting socks or stockings comfortable. I chose medium and they were perfect. When I first put them on they seemed a little stiff and thick but in a short time I realized they were so comfortable that I did not notice that I was wearing them. They were just as comfortable after my 14 hour flight. Hope this helps.

I am a short woman, these are man size. I don't have that small a calf but they slide down when I walk or kneel. I need them as a painter trimming on floor level on my knees, they won't tighten enough to stay up. I don't know if they would be better for a larger person. I find most gear fit for sports or the trades is too big for most women unless specifically designed for them so I am not a good judge.

Yes, I think they will. They are flat in the hard plastic holder they come in and fit my knees snug but not tight.

Absolutely YES!As I wrote in my original review, I was dependent on others to put on my socks until I purchased this devise. I am now a grown up again. It works for all lengths of hoisery.
