are these a little higher at the ankle for support ?

I don't find them to be any higher in the back for support. In fact, I have a heel spur on the back of my foot and they are very comfortable on it. I have wide feet and 2 heel spurs and these are the most comfortable sneakers I've found. Had no trouble walking all over Disney! If you have any foot "issues", I think these would be a good sneaker to try.

I think the are as high as you can go without it ribbing your ankle bone. I found they support ok. I have worn these because I have a wide foot and they don't bother the bones on both of my feet. I have had a problem with this pair that I havn't had before. I go on my treadmill 2 miles in the morning and 2m miles in the evening. The black was coming off in little specks and I was leaving a trail everywhere. It hasn't bothered the use of the shoe but I would really have to think about it before I bought another pair.

From my own experience wearing them, they seem neutral. However, as said before, they are thin and provide good arch support.

No. My husbands legs are very swollen and I can't get these on him. Better for ankles...Sorry

Yes, the strap on these is very long and I can actually fit them around my thighs so your ankles should be no problem at all.

yes. these have just a "bootie" foot - the wearer will need a boot to wear these.

Yes, they can and by quite a bit. I'm 5.7 and didn't have to raise them as far as they are capable of going. I prefer near vertical position too because I'm getting over a back problem and need to be as vertical as possible.

Not really. The main purpose of them is to keep your foot from sliding forward in heels thereby making them more comfortable. They are not support insoles but more like a tool. That's why they don't take up the entire bottom of your shoe.

These don't provide much of an arch support, but I have a bunion on my left foot and they're wide enough to allow for that, even with socks. Depending on the severity of your bunion, these may be fine for you.

They probably are if you want them to fit snugly. But that doesn't mean they will fall past your foot. And you could always wrap a small towel or clothing around your ankle first.

yeah they do have small ankle protection, i wouldn't say a lot, but a little

Yes. I do. I wear boots for comfort so my weight doesn't pull too hard on my ankles when inverted.

Yes, if you don't mind the little thumb tab that extends up from the basic wrap. I tried them on my ankles and they were long enough to attach securely. (Of course, I have rather thin ankles.) Hope this helps

I am sorry, I do not wear high socks. I would test for you, but do not own any. My socks are ankle socks.

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

Hello I am not positive what the support level would be but I was very heavy, am very flat footed, plus my ankles have given up and are weak. Wearing these supports help me exercise and get through an eight hour day, I hope this helps.

Yes, I am 5'1" and they hit a few inches above my ankle but because of the gathering at the bottom I can pull them up a little higher and they look great. If you are a bit taller they will definitely be Capri length.

No, more like a tall footie. I usually roll down the top and it comes just above the shoe.
