I am 5'8". I read that for some they go to the knee and for others they are short. Will they hit my knee?

I am as well 5,8" and for me are as in the photograph. Depending an how does the garment,s waist fit on yours, one cm could mean the edge of your knee. However, it probably can be adjusted and arranged once tested.

I have the opposite problem! I am six feet tall so nothing ever hits me in the right place. Would it be long enough so that my head can rest on it and the part between my legs will be at my knee?

At the top of the stroke your heel is about 20" above the ground. Your foot will be slanted forward and your knee slightly bent. If you've got 8 ft ceilings you could probably be about 6'5" and still be good to go.

I got the XL and my knee is 19.5" above the knee joint and 15" below. They do have pretty good stretch, but you don't need them all that tight for them to do their job.

Yes and no. The one I purchased goes up to my hip. When I got them put on they were too long for my legs, but I was able to get the massage feel that you get in the hospital.my problem is I can not put the on by myself. They slide and twist while you are trying to zip them up. I suggest the short ones, knee length..,they are awesome!

I'm 5'5" but I have a short torso. This is very thin, so it shouldn't be affected by torso length.

No, I'm 5'8 and it only reaches the middle of my back. So for you it may go above the small of your back.

It will be short, and may be too tight around the legs. I'm 6'3", 170 lbs., and I have some space around my hips and knees... I think it depends on how you're built (how thick are those legs of yours?) I don't know hip measurements, so your precision may be wasted on me. There's some stretch to them, not spandex, but some... Good luck.

I am 5'10"; the distance from the floor to the top of my knee is 22" (while wearing an athletic shoe). When I pedal, the top of my knee is around 27-28" high. You can place the deskcycle further ahead under your desk to be sure your knees will not hit. I think you should measure from the floor to the top of your knee to see if the top of your knee is not much more than 22". This is a sturdy piece of equipment. I've been using this equipment almost daily since the end of March. Hope this info helps.

My son is 5'2" and they come to the middle of his shin. The large ones, so I don't think so.

Yes my knees hit and I'm only 5'3". No way to fix it, just ride with your knees sticking out. It definitely effects how you ride but you get used to it. You cannot make fast or sharp turns. My handle bars can't even turn all the way cause they then hit my knees. But I still LOVE this seat. It is so comfy for my 2 yr old and I'm more comfortable with him in front of me.

Yes , because I am 5'6" and my heels are over. My knees are bent at any position. This is all with slightly reclined.

I'm 5' 2" and I reach them fine. My knees are bent while resting my feet on the pedals which allows me leverage while riding on the back of the quad.

I am only 5' 8" they are really great clubs and had one break and they sent a new one in its place. Have been real pleased with the clubs. I do not see why they will not work for you and how tall you are. Mike G

I call it "medium" length. My height is 5'9". The shorts come to the middle of my knee cap. Not too short, not too long.

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 am not sure but I am 5' 10" and it came to my knee. I found it easy to get up from, and I have arthritis in my knees.
