How tall are these socks? Could they be worn over shin guards for soccer?

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

Its knee long and the white strip that you see on the top is the only part which is double over. Normally you wear shin guard on skin and then cover it up with soccer socks. Inside part of decent (10-15$) Shin guard is made of comfortable soft material so it shouldn't really be a concern.

5'9 is probably too tall. Bought these for my niece, she's 11 and only 5'1.

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.

My son wears them over his socks in his football cleats to stop the blisters, and for ankle protection.

I am a powerlifter so only use them for deadlifts. They seem good. No sock is invincible, if you are going to constantly scrape a sock against a bar or a rope they will eventually break down. But better a $10-15 sock then your shin.

My son is 7 and about 4ft, bought him the x-large. They are a bit large on him compared to what other kids on his team wear, so they might be ok for your son. It's a shame the sizing is so vague with these things :/

yes, they fit most 10-12 year olds. I used them for an 11 year old soccer team

These are probably way too big for him. At that age, you can get integrated sock/shin guards that may be easier. Check with his league/coach.

Dear Matt.: regarding to your question, my answer is YES, these protective glasses are for soccer, baseball, basketball, and they are just great...!!

No reason at all. I bought mine for two soccer teams. Age group range from 8 years old to 16 years old and they have held up. They are of good quality. I would highly recommend.

Agreed, my daughter (age 4) wears a size 10 soccer shoe and the 4-6 gives her some extra room. Probably a couple of shoe sizes. The socks are by age range and as far as I can tell, they seem pretty true to size.

I don't think they would fit over the of the average calf with a mx boot on. I would say most mx boots offer good shin protection and would work well a smaller knee pad but are way to restrictive for mountain biking which these are built for.

They're not long, just barely covering the ankle. However, if you go to the socks' manufacturer's website, you might be able to find what you need. (www.bhmedwear.com)

Yes they are a generous knee high length. The picture is very deceiving. I am 5'6 and have muscular calves and they are perfect. Love these socks!!

The sock length is fine, but the size of the foot will probably be to big for her. My son had a size 9, and the foot even with soccer shin guards on was to big and caused bunching. - Hope this helps

They are not what I consider thin nor are they excessively thick. However, Mizuno makes a knee high sock that is ribbed and recommended for both volleyball and softball. It has a thinner feel and may suit your needs. Not certain of how many colors are offered.
