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.
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:

Can we see a pic of your feet with your legs in the shot too? This is very interesting
Have you looked into shoe inserts that essentially reduce the size of the shoe interior? My friend has extremely small feet and faces a similar problem of not finding shoes that are small enough, and I think she's had some luck with the inserts
I'm just confused by why you keep getting your feet measured. I haven't done that since my feet stopped growing, I know my size by this point
How I imagine it:
"I'm size 3"
"No you're not"
"Yes I am"
"You can't be"
"BRING THE DEVICE"
Or like look at the size 3 they currently are wearing.
Yeah but maybe their toes are just jammed up all the way to the front and they don't know how shoes work! You never know!
You have different shoe sizes for men and women? WTF?
Just so you know: Women shoes are different in both width and length*.
Probably because men often need wider shoes.
Where do you live that they don't?
Shoe sizes are Unisex here in in Europe as well as in Asia. And in Asia they are even smarter - they simply use centimeters, while we use "Paris Points" of 2/3s of a centimeter.
In Japan everyone knows their shoe size in centimeters. Those stay the same regardless of gender or whatever other crazy unrelated topic to how big something is.
It's normal for men to have wider feet, with a wider and longer toebox compared to the length of the foot. Length is only one dimension of several. (Though a lot of people don't think to re-lace* their shoes for arches.)
It's unclear how much of that is upbringing. The toebox length is gendered, but toe and foot width go up wen spending a lot of time barefoot, and toe width goes down in pointed shoes that can eve n make toes 'tuck' and cause bunions.
A women's 9 1/2 double-wide fits me about the same as a plain Men's 7. Women's dress shoes are rarely in wide, and NEVER double-wide. Though I've found success with Aussie brands because going barefoot is normal there and so the shoes are often wider for everyone. We're also seeing the toebox become a more slanted natural foot shape, instead of the weird point symmetrical one.
Bodies can be complicated, and one size/shape isn't for everyone. The way we live and dress absolutely changes the shoes we need, too.
Yes but the number doesn't have to change. Just like in the US, they use letters to denote relative foot wdith vs. the average. No need for multiple numbering schemes.
That would make it a foot measurement, not a shoe size.
This is probably gonna blow your mind. But most shoes are worn on feet. Crazy, uh?
It would except for the fact that shoe sizes here, from babies to adults are only sized in centimetres. If there are international sizes printed on the shoes, they have no meaning to residents in Japan. Check the tag inside your shoes; If they have international sizes printed on them, you'll see Japan's is in centimetres, and may have EE (or more Es) next to it to denote width. If there is nothing, then they are standard width.
Children's clothing is also sized in centimetres. Makes things really simple.
The Brannock has ruled. Misses section is right this way…
my sister's foot size is 12. She has larger feet than me and I'm AMAB
Don't bother...my gf has small feet also and we go shopping in kid's department/shop
Same. Sometimes it's the same shoe at a discount, other times kids shoes are lower quality.
Or if you're into it, they can light up with each step
Same. My girlfriend also used to have massive tits. We're talking DDD's. She ended up getting a reduction, but it was funny because she used to have to go to Lane Bryant for tops and Kids Foot Locker for shoes.
Do they get sore all the time? That sounds like a lot of weight on not much area.
What's shoe shopping like? I have a friend with size 6 or 7 feet and he says he often find cheaper shoes because he gets away with buying kids versions of sneakers. On the other hand I've got wide feet so my options are often limited.
That's wild. Those are practically hooves.
Most people wear shoes that are too small.
AFASS - Assigned Female At Shoe Store
...i shop women's shoes when i can; they generally offer a much wider selection...
And they're so much more comfortable, it's ridiculous. It's like the shoe industry decided, several decades ago, that men don't want comfortable shoes.
Comfort or pockets
Fair. Men get pockets, but shite shoes. Women get comfort, but no pockets.
OP is a Rob Liefeld character.
In all seriousness I hope you can find a decent specialty store that will get you comfy/stylish/both shoes.
