They are true to size, in length! I bought a bigger size, based on a couple of things that I read, and they are about an inch to long.. They are also little hard to get on. The straps are not connected to each other, so you have to adjust each strap to get them in place. I like them. But, I'm not sure I would buy another pair. You can't just slip these on and go- which is a personal preference for me.
