I am less than 5 ft tall, and the socks are too long. Can they be safely folded down? How can I handle this problem?

My doctor said do not fold them down. I am also 5 ft. I just pull them up almost to my knees.

Hello, sorry for the delay - hopefully this is still useful: I'm just under 5'8", and don't feel like the length is an issue.

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

For me, they fall to just above my knee. I'm 5'-5". Unfortunately I'm traveling currently and they're at home, otherwise I'd measure them for you. Hope this helps some, at least.

Absolutely. When folded, the widest point is about 3 1/2!inches. They also come with a fairly heavy drawstring bag to protect them. Highly recommend.

Shouldn't be a problem when folded. It's not very heavy and I have mine hanging from a similar type hook.

Hi Megan,I'm not sure how to fold it up. I'm scared to do it because I feel I may hurt myself. lol

Yeah, you shouldn't have an issue. They are fully adjustable and have a lot of room for expansion. I'd recommend criss-crossing the straps (connect the top strap to the bottom hook, and the bottom strap to the top hook, like an X) so as to prevent the kneepads from sliding off your knees.

They're wide and long, but they fold up pretty small. You get used to it. If you were to cut one, it would probably unravel so I wouldn't suggest it.

Folded will not be ideal. There will be no space under the table for your legs when folded.

I would assume so. I'm 5'10" and I have a 34" inseam. I ordered size 2X. They cover my shoe completely but don't drag on the ground. Maybe see if they have petite sizes? I like them this long. I ordered another pair and those too were that long. So I don't think it was just a freak thing. I've washed them several times now as well and they haven't shrunk at all.

Absolutely not! That is what is great about these as well. I find I have to push them down sometimes just because I pull them too high up. It doesn't matter where I "set" them...they stay. Even pairs I have had for a while that have been washed and slightly loosened. They stay put.

I'm 5'8" and think you could definitely make these work for someone a foot shorter. There's a lot of spots to shrink the shoulder-hand space as well as the overall height. The surgeon might have a pair you could at least look at, even if you want to buy them on Amazon.

I don't think that they are offered in different lengths, I'm short and the waist is extremely long on me, but because they are very thin they fold over easily. Perhaps this is to benefit taller individuals.

All things done to excess are at the very least questionable. If you are having to wear them that long, socks ain't gonna help ya. You might want to consult you physician.

They will work only if you keep them up ALL the time...I don't fold mine away because they aren't so easy to put down and put up..

I am 5'10" and they go up just below the knee cap on me. However, they do hold well and you could probably push them down and position them whatever height you want. It's a decent high sock with a cool design.
