I am in bjj and have wrestled all my life. I am 40. The differnce with and withoutPads are huge on the mat. I have not wore pads under my gi so I can't speak to if they will hang on the cotton or not. I would guess they will be fine under gi. I know without the gi my shots are twice as fast with the pads and my knees are very happy. They are not as bulky as they look in the picture. I have 3 of my wrestlers wearing these and they love them. Measure your knee and get the right size. If you are borderline go for the smaller size. I think they have an extra small. If they are too big they will slide around. That is useless to you. Good luck and happy knees. I am in bjj and have wrestled all my life. I am 40.

Not at all. I am a dude standing 5'8" and 140 lbs, but with very skinny girl legs. I use the small size and they are very tight on my leg.

I guess you´d have to get small size. Mine fit pretty well and worked great for bjj. Good luck!

Should fit you fine...I am female, wear same shoe size and weigh more than that. They are very soft feeling, conform to your foot, and VERY comfy. I made my size selection based not on shoe size, but on weight, for support capability.

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.

Small would be just fine for you. I did not think these were too short. They are very comfortable and I plan on buying another color or too in the future. When I bought these I was 122 pounds and I am still 5'2. I think you will be very pleased with these. I certainly hope so.

Honestly you might try youth pads bc these could be too low on your calves. I'm 5'4.5" and youth xl's fit me great.

I've only used for tennis and doing exercises with 1-5 lb weights in ladies exercise class so I have no idea if it would be adequate for the training you describe. I did mention in my review that I think the support would be significantly increased if these were available in a longer length. 4-5 inches longer would be great. I do like that the palm is left uncovered for gripping.

Ask doctor. I'm not sure how that weight would effect her, but these are pretty decent for adults.

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.

Hi. I'm 5'3" and ~120 lbs. I get these in small and they're great. I wonder how much smaller xs would be. Since you're 10 pounds lighter and an inch talker, I'd try xs. I hope they work out for you!

Depends on what he's doing. Actually you know what, I'd say yeah. Based on these are actually pretty light. I did Martial arts with with way heavier arm and leg weights. Also I'd advised for him not to use them for crazy amounts of time per day for anything really athletic. Leg weights can affect the knee and other joints depending on the activity.

You probably wouldn't like these any better. My hands are large/xl woman's, and I still have plenty of room. Not so much that it is dangerous, but I can see where someone with very small hands would lose dexterity.

Shouldn't be a problem. I use them for a combat class and by the time they get a little "damp", if you know what I mean, they feel pretty loose. The palms are a light material, not leather. Hope that helps. I really like them.

Hello Nathan, they make for both male & female. They have very good quality GI'S. Thanks.

I found them to be very snug so I think they would work for most women and some men. However, if anyone weighs more than 175 I would think they would be tight. Hope this helps.

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.

I would with the medium. They can lace tight for a smaller foot n can def accommodate a larger one. It's worth the money for support. If she has an injury make sure she puts in the work to get her back to 100%. They are not a permanent fix.

Yes they will. I liked the resistance level on these. It was just enough to feel it the next day but not too heavy during exercise. The only downfall on these for me was that they are not ideal for small hands. They tend to slide a lot since the weight is located on top of your hand. I used these once during my combat class and had to take them off after 30 mins since I was constantly busy holding on to them trying to keep them from sliding to the side. My knuckles were pretty red from the friction.
