I was born with feet in the 1st percentile of the population and they stayed that way even despite getting taller. Now every shoe shopping experience is awkward af.
Do your feet hurt after a long day of standing/walking like being at an airport or something?
Yes they do. But I don’t know if it’s any worse than a “normal-footed” human’s feet.
so do mine, but i’m a woman who’s shorter than you with size 20 billion feet
Why do they measure your feet as an adult? Is that common in the US? I don’t think i had my feet measured since I was 15 or so.
—what size?
—three
—… please come this way
It’s absolutely not common unless you’re getting custom shoes or some other 1%er activity
Every shoe store I have ever been to, including thrift stores, had one of those foot measuring things.
Thrift store? Believe it or not, 1%er activity.

Do you NOT try to fit into any clothing you buy?
I mean, your feet typically don’t really change size after you grow up? I just buy whatever size I last bought.
Edit: tho to be fair it’s not even always the same size because the size that’s comfortable highly depends from shoe to shoe, I always have to try on a few pairs to be sure.
I never buy clothes online, exactly because I always try them on to check the fit before buying them. I haven’t measured my feet since I was around 15. I know my foot size, so I know that shoes in the range 42-43 are a good fit, depending on the shoe model. I don’t need to measure my feet when I buy shoes to confirm that they’re still around size 42.5.
Cause it takes about 30 seconds and makes sure you actually have the right size shoe.
I don’t think anybody is asking to measure his feet, but these measurement devices are practically everywhere that shoes are sold, so it’s easy to check for yourself.
Speak for yourself… I use my Brannock device each morning to check my feet and see if my junk got bigger from the chemicals.
my shoe size is “only 13” , 6’3 (converted fod you Americans) but the arch is very sharp which makes it annoying to shop for new ones .
I swear to fuck there was another lemmy user that was really tall but had like size 4 feet and there was a pretty cool AMA
Ya I remember that. They had a pic of them in business attire I think
Edit: Here is that post:

Dope, they’ll go down in Lemmy history for having funny proportions
TL:DR He says his dong is normal sized.
Can we see a pic of your feet with your legs in the shot too? This is very interesting
Unclear if on topic, or foot fetish.
Dear feet lovers: does size matter? Actually curious if you care about that.
Corn likea da feet
Why the hell not?
Those kickers look pretty normal!
why…why do you keep getting your feet sized if they haven’t grown since childhood??? you know your size! be a man and pick out your own fucking shoes!
Did you not read the Brannock device?
Shoe sizes change throughout life. At 18 i was a 4E width, at 25ish 4E was too narrow and a 6E fits better. Some people also have different variences between feet (ie, half a size difference between left and right foot)
Sizes also vary between brands/shoes.
Shoes must be cheap then lol
That’s what I was going to say. Kids shoes are cheaper.
I’m 5’10" with a size 14 shoe, and it’s frustrating because they stop making half sizes above 12 which means it’s often difficult to find a good fitting shoe. I also have a 6’5" wingspan so shirts always either have too short of sleeves, or they are way too long on the torso.
Damn that sucks. You need a dedicated clothes manufacturer lol
I HATE that about having big feet, I’m on my feet all day and it doesn’t matter if I go up one or down, my feet are going to hurt, just in different ways.
I also assume that kids shoes don’t last as long, though. There is no reason to build them to last.
I can 100% attest to this. Kids shoes are cheap because they’re cheap.
Yeah that makes sense, I doubt they’re designed to handle the weight of a grown man, even a fit one.
Based on your posts, I hope we learn more about you that is not about your feet :p
While I’m 5’9 (176cm) with size 12 ( man 45 europe ) shoes since I was 15/16 ( same height and foot size )
Haha same here. I’m around 5’6 or 5’7 and I find depending on make, I’m either size 11 or 12 shoes. Also have pretty big hands (or long fingers at least). I’ve always thought of my hands and feet as big puppy paws that I never grew into lmao.
I bet your stiltwalking skills are exemplary.
Does it cause issues with balance?
If I were in your shoes (lol) I’d freak people out by wearing bigger sizes and stabbing through the toe ala Mr deeds
