Nov 19, 2016 at 20:44 comment added Glenn @djechlin I've fallen down a man-made feature in water that wasn't even over the soles of my shoes and I've held firm in water up to my neck while wearing floation. Mid shin is a general catch all guideline. I've done my best to provide a general case answer here when none was really available. Without these loose guidelines the answer becomes worthless except the cool pictures.

Nov 18, 2016 at 5:39 comment added djechlin low shin OK. high shin plus loose rock bad. this is based on little experience but I would be very careful about accidentally including a hard rule in an otherwise cautious answer. (Feel free to tell me I'm wrong, this just jumped out at me.)
