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.

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

While I'm 5'9 (176cm) with size 12 ( man 45 europe ) shoes since I was 15/16 ( same height and foot size since that age )

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

I'm size 5 men's and have trouble finding shoes, can't imagine searching for size 3

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (3 children)

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 had a girlfriend who had the inverse of your problem — her feet were far too large for shoes aimed at women. She ended up becoming friends with a bunch of drag queens, and finding that the specialist store they got their shoes from was the best place for her

Dude this is insane. First I feel like you'd be more prone to falling over or something? Like top heavy?? But on the other hand you can probably go up most stairs without feeling like you're about to fall to your death. I have average foot size for my height and all stairs I have to be on my tip toes. Honestly have wished I had smaller feet many times in my life. Thanks for sharing! Not something I ever thought was a thing.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I think that's the normal way of walking upstairs. I bet even OP does it.

That's what you get when you don't use the metric system

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I used to know a guy they called "Princess" because he had slightly smaller feet than average. He was a little short, very manly beard, muscular frame, deep voice. His feet weren't even notably small or anything; he played football and you couldn't really tell they were anything to write home about at all. Because they weren't. He wore a size 40 I think, that's like size 7 US. And yet: Princess.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago

Yes I sympathize. Kids and teenagers like to pick up on any kind of difference so you can imagine what they made of my size 3 feet even at a time when I was struggling to come to terms with it. It all seems stupid in retrospect like my feet aren't deformed I'm just small pawed and really only a few inches smaller than "normal" feet but at the time it was the worst thing in the world

Are you built like a pirate from the knees down?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

My size (9) is constantly sold out. I was wondering if you experience fewer sold-out issues with your size.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I'm on the opposite end as OP, I wear size 14. They are very hard to find since most manufacturers and shoe stores only go up to 13, and a lot of the ones that go to higher have a very limited selection in larger sizes. I would imagine it's similar at the lower end of shoe sizes.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Yes can confirm it's very hard to find age appropriate shoes in my size. Most are Velcro or have glitter or superheroes on them which is fine - I definitely have some of these as "house shoes" but finding proper dress shoes or boots is very tricky. Running shoes are also difficult to find as I'm below the threshold for women's sizes.

Wow dude, that's crazy. Like, in a cool way.

My great-uncle was very small when he was born - the family story is that he used to sleep in a shoe box instead of a crib until he was almost a year old.

Probably not your shoe box, though.

[–] [email protected] 44 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Haha bro thanks. And you're right my shoe box would be too small for any baby!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

Maybe the one from Slingblade

[–] [email protected] 76 points 1 month ago

Probably not your shoe box, though.>

Oh no, you didn't

They're just some random crayfish socks. I don't have Ironman but have most other superhero socks, including my fave Spiderman socks

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

Heck yeah man, I wish they made Spiderman socks in my size!
