Due to a pituitary issue when I was younger I have maybe a bizarre world record of the smallest feet and hands on a fully grown man. My feet and hands are normal looking but very small. They were tiny as a baby and just never grew that big. Thought you all would find it interesting - I know it makes for good chat at parties!
How do you find shoes? I imagine there's not a whole lot of selection of adult shoes at that size.
Mostly online. Women's sizes are all too big so can only wear kid's sizes. The trick is finding something without Velcro and superheroes all over it (though I have a cool pair of Optimus Prime sandals just because I can). Converse and Vans are reliable.
Running shoes and dress shoes are particularly frustrating though. Sneakers in a size 3 are not designed for the wear and tear a 6'1" man is going to put them through so I'm buying a new pair every few months. Dress shoes as well are hard to find in designs that don't look like clunky Communion shoes.
Thanks for sharing! Have you ever considered getting some sort of custom shoes made?
Yes thinking about getting some dress shoes custom made but haven't got around to it yet.
As a 6’3” guy with size 16 feet, I have arrived at the same conclusion over here at the opposite end of the bell curve. Love my Converse and Vans.
Wow. I can't compute that size really but yes they're certainly very dependable in all sizes.
velcro is super good tho. should be on more adult size shoes. velcro doesn't come loose by itself (then dipping into dirt), doesn't get caught on things or in machines and doesn't rip in the worst possible moment when you're in a hurry. it's just a bit harder to clean.
Agreed of course. My Velcro Optimus Prime sandals are an old stand by -
