I'm 6'4", 210lbs and big-boned. My ankle circumference is about 10". Anyone my size try to run with these?

If you try to run I think they will shake all over the place. I don't think it's good to run with ankle weights...if you ask me. I use them for hip and butt exercises and the work great. If you want to add weight to your running the get a weighted vest or wear a heavy back pack. Good luck.

Most likely not. I'm 6'0" and fairly stout, and they fit me comfortably. My guess would be anything under 5'9"-5'10" would be pushing it.

They will if you wearing heavy socks and slacks. I wear a pair of pull-on knits which are comfortable to exercise in. My ankles are very small (I wear a 2 petite) and I find they do slip a little. The key is to really hold them tight and make sure you put them on tight. Good luck with your ankles.

No, and I have big hips/thighs! My waist is much smaller. I thought they were comfortable, and really hold things in place when running. I'm 5'5, 140#, I ordered a medium.

I'm a large tall (6'1", 225 pounds) I got XL & they fit perfectly so I'd say they run true.

Probably. I think the coils might be a little uncomfortable since your probably going to feel them through a running shoe. Id look for one with a lower profile made for running

I wish I could help you. I bought them for my daughter who is a very fit 5'7" 125 lb ironman trainy. She took a size small.

Only if you can get the them on. I have a 10.5 foot & couldn't get them on my foot. It's a great idea, but they need to go back to the drawing board. I really wanted these to work. The gel restricts putting them on your feet.

My husband is 6'4" 210 pounds and has no problem with them. Don't know beyond that.

You may want to. I am 5'3" on a good day and there is not much fabric at my ankles when wearing these.

I'm a plus size girl and wear a size 10 shoe and I'm 5'9" tall -- that said the Sockwell's always seem to feel like they're too small and waaaaaay to stretched out. If you aren't plus size, it make work though.

I'm 6'1" and I have these. Hindsight, I would have went with longer bands with more tension.I have to put 3 bands on at once to get a necessary tension

I'm 5'11" so have good sized ankle bones. I'm not fat but not petite. These are very comfy and go all the way around my ankle before I Velcro. Way better than the ones I used to borrow from my Mum in the 90's.

You would have to choke up on it. We bought for my husband who is 5'10". However, I can use them, too, and I'm only 5'6". I think you would be ok with these.

I haven't tried them as ankle weights but I did buy a different one for my ankles when I run, also Reebok. You should just get that one -- they're perfect.

Maybe try a size based more on weight than height and if they fit at the waist then get the legs hemmed up? If not, return them. Just make sure you can do that. I'm 5'10"/210 and went with the size 4 and they fit great. Good luck.
