    About 3" below the bone to the outside of the knee.

    I usually pull mine all the way up, then fold three times down to get a band about 2.5" wide 3" below the bone.

    With boots, just put your boots on over the hose and scrunch 'em down until they're comfy. Don't worry about folding them down unless you want to.

    Just don't wear the garters/flashes when you do that. I've seen it done, and it looks a little goofy.

    Thank you. That helps. I had no idea on how many folds or distance down. I do, however, see how flashes with them pushed down would only look good on Richard Branson.......Oops, did I say that?

    Thanks
