  Every shoe store I have ever been to, including thrift stores, had one of those foot measuring things.

  Do you NOT try to fit into any clothing you buy?

    I never buy clothes online, exactly because I always try them on to check the fit before buying them. I haven’t measured my feet since I was around 15. I know my foot size, so I know that shoes in the range 42-43 are a good fit, depending on the shoe model. I don’t need to measure my feet when I buy shoes to confirm that they’re still around size 42.5.

    I mean, your feet typically don’t really change size after you grow up? I just buy whatever size I last bought.

      Depends on if you get into barefoot style shoes or not.
