Big Feet!

Post by donnaf »

Bit of a random topic this but I'm curious!
I'm 5ft 4 with size 9 feet, which is so out of proportion its untrue!
I saw somethin on tv the other day n they gave a sum to work out how tall you can expect someone to be based on their foot size...don't ask what the sum was cos I have lost the bit of paper I wrote it on lol.
I should be 5 ft 10!!
Is that a little quirk all of my very own, or do any of you have stupidly big feet for your height?

My feet aren't that big - they're around size 9 - 10 (I'm a touch over 6 foot) but my feet are dead wide, and I think I'm probably a bit flat footed too. You should see me try to get into the little slippers provided for the interiors of traditional Japanese accommodation - about a quarter of my foot overhangs the back of the slipper - it's a complete non-starter so I stick to socks aside from the bathrooms which have their own equally tiny slippers which I endure for the moments necessary. If it's not painful then the slippers just keep falling off and it's a right faff, lol!

Looks like it's just me then!
I have stupid long, narrow feet that have been called barges many times over the years!
I could never get shoes to fit properly as a kid, n its lucky I aint too girly cos it is almost impossible to get girly shoes in my size (not that I could walk in em anyway...)
I'll find another of my quirky medical probs to blame this one on then!! ;)
I get knocked down, but I get up again, you're never ever gonna keep me down :D
