Lol, you're my exact opposite. I'm 5'1", my feet are near average for a man (8.5 wide, U.S.), and my hands are bigger than most men I meet.

Is OP literally posting his photo on Lemmy?
Like a cat
A while back there was this 5ft something guy with size 13 feet. You should find a doctor and swap feet.
At least you get to wear the cooler shoes? The big sizes usually look so boring while the kids get all the fun!
For international readers, that's a size 2 in UK/Australia, and approximately a size 33.5 - 34 European.
Apparently it's also roughly a 210 - 215 mondopoint length.
Srsly tho why do they need a totally different sizing scale for ski boots?

I was about to say, it looks like there are some bones or something missing in the front part of the foot there. Like the tendons are skipping over and attaching to something farther back than they should. And the toes seem like they aren't allowed to stretch out fully. I think I saw that condition on some foot doctor show. Very interesting anomaly.
I'm totally relieved to hear about your weiner though. Glad you mentioned that. ✔️
This is another photo of my foot compared to my friend's size 10 shoe. It's relatively "normal" looking but just shrunk down. And yes, it is a relief that this didn't spread to other areas.
Wow yeah this shows a difference.
I'm size ten, "like everyone in the army" (Band of Brothers reference) and like your feet or hands didn't seem particularly small from the original photo in the post, this makes the size much clearer.
European 43-44
lol yeah, quite a difference!
it is a relief that this didn't spread to other areas.
Roger that, glad you reaffirm again! I was about to ask for a DP but I feel safe again now.
Whoa cool--you're like ... the opposite of a hobbit O_O
you could complement the vibe by living in a treehouse,
which is sort of the conceptual opposite of a hole in the ground!!
ffs I had to fire up Tor browser to look at the photo from the UK... I guess I'll start using it more regularly with sites blocking the entire country in response to these overreaching new laws -.-
Look. I gotta know for sure. Show that cock.
I don't think this is the appropriate forum for that bro.
I don't need to see it but I need to know
My man you're half way to having hooves. You're probably great at scaling vertical cliffs. /s
6’-5” with size 16. I’ve met people taller with just size 11 or 13 and I’m like, damnit! Once fell out of a kayak because my feet got stuck, and when I do partner dance I gotta be so careful in closed positions like in Balboa.
If I had to pick an extreme I’d go small.
Where's the guy with the ridiculously huge feet? We need to get you in touch so you can balance each other out.
Genuine question, do your feet do a good job of keeping you on your feet? Like as far as you or any doctors know, are you prone to not staying on your feet any more or less than say someone with average sized feet for your height?
He said in the OP that his balance is fine. Lemmy's design can sometimes make you not notice that the OP has text, so you might have missed it.
About balance, you might be interested in my comment as well. If you can't find it: https://discuss.tchncs.de/comment/19894355
Off topic: is there an instance-agnostic way of linking to a post/comment?
It's a bit weird that this comment was replied to or upvoted because I deleted it right after making it, at least two hours ago. I thought I should double check the post about my question, saw the answer so deleted my comment thinking what a dummy I was. Maybe some instances are out of sync again.
I dated a girl in middle school who had this issue. You used a wheelchair, not because he legs didn't work, but her feet were to small to support her body.
cant believe someones complaining about a cheaper carbon footprint (literally) and the ability to get their hands into pringle cans.
On the bright side, you get cooler shoes. I can't find ninja turtle shoes in my size
I understand your struggle but I'm 6'1 too and size 46 (EU) which seems like an appropriate size for this height, and while I don't feel that tall (most young colleagues are getting taller and taller), it's almost impossible to find size 46 in shoe stores so I have to buy shoes online (and not try them beforehand).
I really don't care about fashion, so the comfort of shoes is the only thing important to me. So I've been buying online the same pair of shoes (brand and model) for 10 years.
46 shouldn't be that hard to find surely? In my experience most shoes go up to 46 but availability drops off dramatically after that. I use 48/49 and had a lot of difficulty until the government decided to subsidise custom footwear because of my flat feet.
I never got to say this in the reddit days, but here goes: "dude, are you me?". The only difference is that I buy the same brand (Asics), and not the same exact shoe/model.
I think this is your 3rd post so far. Slight red flags make me think you're Lemmy points farming
I'm 1.78m tall (random online converter says 5'10") and have average sized feet for my height, maybe slightly on the small side but well within normal range. My shoe size is 40-44 depending on the shoe, the shoe I'm looking at right now says size 44 is US size 10.5.
I have awful balance. I trip and lose my balance constantly. Perhaps counterintuitively, it's nearly impossible for me to fall because I've gotten so good at catching myself every time I lose my balance. I constantly trip over stuff or lose my balance for no apparent reason but my reflexes have gotten so good at correcting for it that it's basically a normal part of my gait, lol. Many people have been "impressed" (or concerned) about how I trip and recover and pretend like nothing happened, because for me it really is a normal occurrence.
I know it's not super relevant for your topic but I just thought it's interesting to share. Anecdotally, it seems that foot size doesn't have that much to do with balance based on you and me.
Spend some time walking backwards and see if that helps.
Looking at those feet I wonder if you would be awesome at bouldering?
