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!

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'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.

I bought these for my girlfriend. She's 5' nothing They just about reach her behind, so no would be your answer.

Hi, no these aren't just for woman. My husband is 5'9 220 and he has an extra large one that works great for him!

As the other person said, they probably are too big for you. I do not walk or run with them, just do floor and sitting exercises, and they move around some even if I tighten them as much as possible.

My hands are on the small side and they fit me. I'm actually thinking about returning mine because I didn't end up needing the, for my kickboxing class (the instructor changed the format).. I'll sell you mine if you're interested. catscho[at] hotmail

I'm 5'6" and about 130 pounds. There is more than enough sox to cover you leg to the knee. These are not really tight, so for travel they are OK, but if your legs and/or ankles swell they won't be tight enough to help much.

I got these for my daughter who is on a track team. She is 5'6" and about 140 lb with about 17% body fat and the bulk of her wt. in her legs. I got her size medium - they fit her great. She loves these tights. So, my best guess would be for you - a size small. I do not know about vein support, but I do know that the design is for specific muscle support.

Hi William - I practice Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and we drill from feet to floor and grapple on the mat. I haven't had any knee issues when wearing these pads. I love them and will keep buying them when they need to be replaced. I hope this answers your question. Please take note that they are sold individually - so order 2!

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.

Hi Randy. I am 5'5"ish and weigh 110 pounds. The small fits me well. Not too long in the leg and not tight in the waist. The legs of the shorts don't ride up either. Hope this helps some....good luck!

No. They are sized perfect for someone under 5'4". It's a great starter set.

I'm 5' 11" and of medium build and these gloves are "roomy". Not so much that that I have a lot of space at the ends of the fingers, but they are certainly not a tigh fit. Unless the guys you are buying these for have really thick hands or very long fingers, I can't image that these could be too small. I would be more concerned about them being too big for some women and some men with slender/smaller hands.

They are one size fits all pretty much... They should look fine might just go up a little higher on the leg. Enjoy!

Yes. I am a big guy (6 '3') and I have been using these for my pants (which are big and heavy) with no issues.

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.
