Is the sock long enough to double over? Would like to have the sock on the skin then place the shin guard over that and have the sock come back over.

I bought the M Size, It could be done however it wont cover all the shin guard. Maybe with the Large Size. I am a 10.5 U.S foot size and fits perfect.

It might if you are short enough, for me it goes over the knee far enough to fold over if you look at the picture, that's how a large fits me, it would be folded over just below the knee and maybe a 5 or 6 inch fold, but not long enough to cover shin guards. Maybe you should wear a regular pair of socks under the shin guard and then put this one over it.

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.

I don't understand the question. It's the easiest "contraption" to put on. You slide the sock over the end of the sock aid and slip your foot into the sock.

I would sum up the answer by saying that this is the best armor to protect your shin and your knee that I found on the market at this time. The rubbing spots that I found when I first started using these pads has gone away. It appears that this armor has adjusted to my legs shape so that I do not get any more areas that rub or irritate my skin. I do find it helps to wear high socks so there's less of a chance of any rubbing at the lower strap area.

It's not supposed to go over your shoe. You have to wrap this around the bottom of your feet to restrict rotation

I wear mine at night until around 3 or 4 am when I find it becomes more uncomfortable. Not that it is cutting off circulation or anything... just more like I'd rather take it off. I have never felt that this sock does more hard than good. What did you mean by that?

You should be able to,roll the socks on the sock-aid all the way to the heel and toe is on the sock-aid and just pull the ropes and the compression stockings should be all the way on your foot than just pull up the sock.I hope this helped you.Have a good day.

Yes, I use thigh high ones. It is important to pull the sock over frame until you get to the heel. The heel material is noticeable so you can see it and stop after it is pulled to top. I found if I put my foot into the sock at that time then I had enough toe room. The form cannot be pulled all the way up the leg but having help on the lower part of leg made all the difference in getting socks on.

I think the seat is slanted too much for my hight. I'm 6'2". I did, just now, adjust the arm at the base of the seat to it's lowest point, this helps some. I will try this position to see if I can reduce the pressure on my shins and, try to find a position best suited for my posture/hight. Thanks for your input. I'll get back asap.

I found ways to make it comfy and have it work. First, get a thick sock and cut the great toe out. Wear the sock under the brace, always! Second, when you first start to wear the brace, just loop the velcro loosely. Don't tighten it at all. The width of the toe protector will work first and without pain. Only start to tighten it after about a week or even two, and then, just tighten it a bit. This is a slow process if you don't want the process to be searingly painful. It takes time. I started to notice a difference after about two months. If you go too fast, you can hurt your gate or your knee, so be careful and just go very slowly.

I wear the ankle brace under a sock. I play softball and umpire. It works great.

I don't think that's what this is meant for. This is so you can keep hockey socks from falling down. There's a clip on each end to connect to the socks. I don't even know what you'd attach it to for basketball or football or running.

I believe you fins might be a little too small if they reach the opening, but I would have to say yes. The material of the sock is very thick to prevent this from happening.

Idk but I doubt that the shin guard would be big enough. For kids it is 4 in long. For kids it fits about 3 shoe sizes so maybe the same for adult.

It appears to work on both - I use it on my left - easy to put on and protects shin and ankle.

I have good use of the left hand, not so good with the right. I grip the sock aid at the tips with my good hand, collapsing them flatly against one another. With my bad hand I begin to slip the sock over the tips, sometimes using my teeth. Once the sock covers the tips I am able to slip my foot in, pull it through and work it down. It works OK. So far I have found nothing better!

I can't say if it will solve your problem (although I've heard compression sleeves work for Shin Splints), but I doubt it will be too much compression (assuming you get the sizing right). I thought the compression was on the light side.

Shin guards are not sized for age, they are sized for the height of the individual. These shin guards do have velcro across the guard for a tighter grab when worn
