Sizing Your Cane

How to Properly Measure and Size Your Cane
By H Keith Melton, President of Cane Masters LLC

Anatomical dimensions may vary, even among individuals of the same height. To receive the most benefit from your cane, it is essential that it be properly sized for your body. If your cane is too long, or too short, it may not provide the necessary support and stability of a cane that is properly sized.

Both methods of sizing your cane (below) assume that you are wearing your standard footwear. Depending on their design, your boots or shoes will add an inch or more to your overall cane length.

For an accurate measurement of your cane’s optimum length, do the following:

1. Stand with your back flat to a wall while wearing your everyday walking shoes,

2. Stand upright, relax your shoulders, and allow your arms to hang with a natural bend (about 15 degrees) at the elbow,

3. Have a second person measure the distance from your wrist joint (between your wrist and forearm) to the floor with a tape measure or yardstick. Note: if you perform this measurement on yourself, it will be inaccurate! The process of reaching across your body to measure yourself destroys the validity of the measurement,

4.Round up the measurement to the nearest ½ inch, and then add an ½”.

If you don't have a second person to aid you in determining the proper measurement for your cane, there is another method:

1. Measure your height when wearing your standard walking shoes. Convert your height into inches.For example, if you are 5’ 10” in your shoes, your height is 70 inches.

2. Divide by two and then add ½ inch to determine your approximate cane size.In our example, if you are 70 inches tall (5’ 10”), your approximate cane size would be 35” plus ½”= 35.5 inches. If you were 64” tall (5’ 4”), your estimated cane length would be 32” plus ½” = 32.5”.

3. This method is usually accurate within one inch of your proper length.

When your cane is properly sized, and you are standing in your walking shoes, the top of your cane should align with your wrist joint.

It you are uncertain of your measurement, always err by making your cane longer. It's a lot easier to cut a cane that is too long, than it is to stretch a cane that is too short! Note: Canes with copper tips (ferrules) cannot be shortened. Be certain of your length before adding a copper tip to your cane order.

Mobility Card

Good card to have for attending events where ticketing and security may question the need for a cane. Given its price and shipping cost it should be included with each cane purchase

The best of the best!

I really love this cane! I was surprised at the weight and the size or it’s diameter! Always wanted one like this!

Plan ahead

I got replacement rubber tips long before I needed them just because I think if you need one it’s likely to be something you need right now, not something you want to wait on for a week.

When people see walk with your cane, they can’t believe I just came out of surgery. My walking gate is seamless. I use it as a daily walker and have incorporated it in my physical therapy routine. I’m looking forward to my next purchase .

EXCELLENT! OUTSTANDING! SUPERB!

I've just received my 3rd cane from Cane Masters! It's even more beautiful than my first two. I am a senior citizen who is also a U.S, Army Veteran. I need the excellent product that Cane Masters provides for both mobility and self defense. My cane arrived on time and was very well protected in the shipping container. The UPS representative made an effort to conceal my cane from porch pirates by covering the package with our large welcome mat. The craftmanship is Spectacular!!! I'm now looking forward to ordering my 4th cane in another year or two (wouldn't it be nice to have one special cane for each day of the week :)

Very nice cane

I liked the overall quality of the craftmanship of this cane and have recommended it to others as a functional walking and self defense cane. I would like to suggest that additional options be offered on the customized cane option for Cane Master to offer more elegant options to this cane as a dress cane by providing customized options such as brass tips for the cane handle as well as various brass rings on the shaft just below the handle and above the notches for the fighting grip.

Personal Protection Walking Cane
The Only Walking Stick I’ll Ever Need

These are exceptionally handmade with a wonderful customizable option. That and the quality of the wood and workmanship sold me. It took awhile to receive, since they’re not cranked out by a machine, but carefully and personally crafted by hand; well worth the wait. I got my cane first, then this walking stick for hiking; I’m all set for life. Both can be used for self defense, as well, in my elder years with previous training.

How long does it take for my cane to be produced?

All of our canes are fully customized. It takes roughly two weeks for us to cut the cane, sand, stain and finish the cane before we get it ready to ship.

How much do the different wood types Weigh?

Weight will slightly differ from cane to cane. That being said, our canes weigh between 1.6lbs and 2.6lbs with Oak 7/8" being at the bottom of the range and Octagonal Thumper Stock Hickory and Octagonal Pure Hickory Heart being at the Heavier end of that range.

What wood type is the strongest?

We look at strength of wood types by the density of the wood. We can calculate it by looking at its specific gravity — dividing the weight of a volume of the wood by the same water volume. A higher number usually means that it is a denser and more robust wood. The number is most useful as a comparison between different species of woods.

- Hickory has a specific gravity of 0.7
- Oak has a specific gravity of between 0.63 and 0.68.

What is the benefit of a Palm Rest?

The Palm rest is a big benefit because it allows you to distribute weight throughout the cane while utilizing it. For people with a back pain, arthritis, bad knees or hips can find a lot of benefit by finding better comfort while using the cane.

Does the Octagonal cane have an Octagonal Crook?

No. The crooks on octagonal canes have a round crook.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes we ship worldwide. You will be able to find international shipping rates at checkout.

What Shipping Carriers do you offer?

UPS, USPS, FedEx, DHL.
