So I'm looking to get some tall knee brace socks. Stance and fox have some nice ones I've seen. I do have larger thighs(aka tree trunks) and worried the tops may be too small. Has anyone had an issue with any of them being too small at the top or is that not an issue?

I have a pair of fox socks and fly racing socks and both of them fit my legs good and they'll even stretch out a little more as you wear them...I also have big legs (I'm 215lbs)

I have huge thighs also and I wear the fox ones then just lap them back over the brace kind keep them from sliding down.

How about using the spandex style knee brace sleeves?

I have some big thighs from playing hockey since I was 4. I find that the Fox socks do great. Or the Asterisk knee brace under sleeve also works good.

I used to wear the msr pants actually as well as a set of the asterisk sleeves. I'm going to head down to the local dealer and see if I can find the fox ones to try. Surprised no one has tried the stance ones at all.

I have large legs from cycling and I find the fox ones fit just fine. The only thing I don't like about them is the ankle part, that is cotton matirial is tight going over my wide size 12 foot. I ripped a pair putting them on once.

I would run socks and asterisk sleeves, recently switched to the stance knee brace socks, best fitting and most comfortable thing yet.

Thats what I do. I use Asterisk brace sleeves and regular white cotton Hanes crew socks. I tried the huge MX socks, too thick and too hot.
