I'm a 6'1" (185 cm) man with stupidly small size 3 US (EU 34) feet. I've never met another adult with smaller feet than me.

  • Yeah for sure. I wanted to go snowboarding once but the rental place only went down to a kid's size 4 which was too big for me (I'm really a size 2 without orthotics). So if I could find boots that fit, I'd be up for it!

  • Not as many issues as you might think. Of course, I have a smaller foot surface area to work with so not as steady on my toes but I have strong foot and calf muscles to compensate I think and keep me relatively stable. I can run fine but kid's shoes are not designed for a 6'1" 170 lb man to be running in them so I go through shoes like crazy. Mostly it's just social issues - my feet and hands are quite noticeably small so I get comments from strangers a lot. But I just try to laugh it off and be good humored about it.

  • Unfortunately no. I did get a discount foot massage once though.

  • Yes people do notice on at least a weekly basis. The size difference is quite dramatic compared to normal sized shoes. My foot next to a pair of size 9s

    And size 10

  • Have to just buy kid's sizes. Women's and men's shoes are too big for me. Mostly buy online...I can tell you from experience it can get weird buying in store. Converse and Vans are great as they make age appropriate shoes in my size. Dress shoes harder to find in a non-clunky style. Work boots are non-existent.

  • Yes every now and then but for the most part can walk and run fine. Windy days are a killer though.

  • Yes thinking about this as a treat for my birthday coming up. I have a few pairs of kid's dress shoes but they're pretty clunky - mostly designed for kids to wear at church. Near impossible to find something more stylish.

  • Yes that's essentially what's happened. And yes, definitely throws people off. Everyone's hands inevitably swallow mine during handshakes.

  • Thanks! This is a shot just on a ferry - this guy was shorter than me I think maybe size 11 feet?

    And my feet from the side in size 9 shoes

    Compared to a random print in the snow...

    And my foot measured...

  • Indeed. Have to buy online. Shoe stores are too awkward.
