The right walking stick height sits at your wrist crease when you stand upright in everyday shoes, with a slight bend in the elbow as you hold the handle. Use the chart below as a starting band, then fine-tune with an adjustable stick on a flat floor.
Practical guidance only. For medical decisions after surgery, injury or long-term conditions, consult a doctor or physiotherapist.
| User height | Starting stick length | Fine-tune tip |
|---|---|---|
| 150–160 cm | 74–84 cm | Wrist crease method wins over chart alone |
| 160–170 cm | 82–90 cm | Test on the floor you use most |
| 170–180 cm | 88–96 cm | Shoes on when measuring |
| 180–190 cm | 94–100 cm | Prefer adjustable models |
