    Same. Sometimes it’s the same shoe at a discount, other times kids shoes are lower quality.

    Or if you’re into it, they can light up with each step

      Same. My girlfriend also used to have massive tits. We’re talking DDD’s. She ended up getting a reduction, but it was funny because she used to have to go to Lane Bryant for tops and Kids Foot Locker for shoes.

  Most people wear shoes that are too small.

    Haha same here. I’m around 5’6 or 5’7 and I find depending on make, I’m either size 11 or 12 shoes. Also have pretty big hands (or long fingers at least). I’ve always thought of my hands and feet as big puppy paws that I never grew into lmao.

  have you tried wearing kids size?

    I pretty much can only wear kid’s sizes. But I was getting my foot measured because a new running store opened up that carries a women’s running shoe in a 5 and it runs small so with slightly thick socks I can fit in it fine. The first non-kids running shoes I’ve had in my life!

    Shoe sizes change throughout life. At 18 i was a 4E width, at 25ish 4E was too narrow and a 6E fits better.

    Sizes also vary between brands/shoes.

  my shoe size is “only 13” , 6’3 (converted fod you Americans) but the arch is very sharp which makes it annoying to shop for new ones .
