Not recommended. The shirt stays have every imaginable design problem an item could have.  They are to short even when fully adjusted for the longest length. I have a 32" inseam, wear long tailed dress shirts and even with  over the calf socks, the stays are stretched to the maximum. The fasteners are not designed for a common weight dress shirt or dress socks and are very problematic in trying to get fastened. The fasteners may have been designed for women's nylon stockings. The "Y" sections are approximately 4" long which allows the top two fasteners only about 3" of separation when attached to the shirt tail which makes the Y style stay virtually indifferent from the straight style stay. And the back of the fastener that rubs against the leg feel like sand paper. Not recommended.
