In my case, they only "go up past my wrist" just under 1 inch. Otherwise, these gloves are a good general fit for my hands.

3" up the wristI bought also Dimond Grip by Microfkex corp cream or tan color, even thicker and easier to put on and take offBoth brands are good

They do not go past the wrist bone more than 1/2" The picture is inaccurate.

It's hard to say how much they'll stretch. My wrists are 6.5 and plenty tight. They need to be, for the "button" to press hard in the right spot. So they would be tight on you, but another 1.5 inches would be really tight. Do they take returns?

My wrists are also 6" around. They do slide a little with active wrist movement. It may be best to get the lighter ones, which I think are smaller. I use mine on my ankles. They are so comfortable, the others I have hurt to wear very long, but not these.

I can't remember the exact length, and they're not with me at the moment, but I have big arms (I'm a woman), and they go all the way to my shoulder. They will stretch a bit to fit around the upper arm, and they stay up with no problem. They would leave a gap if you're wearing a sleeveless shirt, but will go up under short sleeves and give complete coverage. I ordered the same size as the average t-shirt I wear, and it seemed like a good way to gauge the size you should order. I hope this helps! :-)

Unsustainably tight. You should tighten them right before you set in for the lift and loosen them immediately afterwards. Your wrists should have very limited mobility

When you pull on them they go to about your upper leg. They really are good and recommended by my doctor.

it doesn't go up your arm too much, probably 2 inches up your arm from your wrist.

I can't remember how far they go up, (got them for someone else) but don't think they go farther than the beginning of the wrist.

I don't know if they're meant to be, but the springy steel of the cuffs can be "opened up" for us with larger arms. I've found they work better a little tight, so as to stay on the arm if you release the handhold to use your hand for something. Very satisfied with mine.

My wrist is about 7.5 inches and it leaves indentations but they dont cut off my circulation and they are not too tight that I wouldnt wear them. Even after throwing them in the washing machine and dryer they are fine. I would think they would fit fine on a 6 inch wrist. The biggest thing is read the directions, they are placed slightly above your wrist, and they need to be in the right spot to work correctly. I have had amazing results with these and highly recommend them.

They will probably slip off your wrists with active exercise. Ankles would probably work better.

They do not go over the hand. They stretch to fit my arm length (wrist to armpit) of about 20" with room but spare.

I'm not sure how tall you are (ie., long your arms are), Natasha. I'm fairly tall (5'7") and have long arms. I find that these will just barely make it from my wrist to the standard-length short sleeves of my Pearl-Izumi jersey (mid upper-arm). If however, you don't mind them not reaching to your wrists, you should be able to pull them up all the way to your armpit. Girth could be an issue however. they ARE tapered, widest at the upper-arm portion, and narrowest at the wrist. I don't believe that the average woman could comfortably wear the wrist portion high up the upper-arm. I hope this helps... I'm not sure how tall you are (ie., long your arms are), Natasha.

according to my BF, they work wonders. he has two pairs in rotation. hes got really large hands so to his benefit, they dont reach too far past the knuckles. hope this helps. he never mentions his wrist though, just his hands.

Yes they slip down on my bicep and ride up on my wrist. I have kind of a skinny arm though. So a man with muscles might have better luck keeping it in place. I'd recommend getting the sleeve with the thumb hole. Hope this helps!!

No as the size goes up so too does the resistance. I have 2 different sets of these amd they all wil fit your hand. To add, you dont necessarily want to keep these on for a whole mile. They are intended to help with form and resistance for high intensity interval training. I guess you could go distance swimming with them but you would want to definitely start with a smaller size.

They are tight on me, but my arms are on the heavy side. My Wrist is 6 1/2 in. And just below elbow is 10 3/4 in. Hope this helps!
