The cane is available in fixed lengths and thus you must determine the proper length for yourself. A rough guide is as follows: Stand on a level surface in shoes that you plan to wear while using a cane. With your arms by your side measure the distance from the floor to your  wrist with a yard stick or tape measure. Select and order the cane from the available sizes of 30", 32", 34", or 36" that is closest to this measurement. If the measurement falls exactly between  two of these lengths choose the larger length. Example 1: If the  measurement is 31 ½ inches, then choose the 32 inch  length. Example 2: If the measurement is 31 inches, then choose  the 32 inch length. Please note: Custom lengths are available at a premium price.
