As a baby I was born with a pituitary issue which meant my hands and feet were abnormally small. They never grew that large at all. I can run and walk fine and they’re not deformed or anything, just tiny. I might have some hilarious world record for smallest hands and feet on a fully grown adult! Luckily my condition hasn’t affected any other part of my body.

    I’d never notice it as a passer-by. I think large feet are weirder looking because I auto-associate them with clown shoes.

    I have the same problem but the local clown shoe shop really helped me… No seriously, I have ridiculously wide feet and some shoe brands don’t do that wide shoes, so sometimes I end up 2 sizes up and thicker socks… Lol

      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.

    What wind speed will cause you to topple over?

    On a more serious note, have you found any particular activities or sports where your unique genetics have given you an advantage?

      Not OP, but the vast majority of people would have difficulty staying standing with 80 mph gusts.

      The recent LA fires were probably completely unapproachable by land or air, due to the reported 120 mph gusts that it was creating.

    That’s hilarious and I would own it so hard if I had those feet. At least you’re not like nearly every other person. Also I definitely want to see a non blurry image, lol.

    And I thought I was disproportionate! I’m 5’10” lady with a size 7.5 shoe, I regularly share shoes with my 5’2” sister. I am regularly off-balance, I assumed from my teeny feet, but you’re making me questions the likelihood of that.

      5’10 is… I’m doing the math mentally, I think it’s almost 190cm ? and your shoe size of 7,5, -is it expressed in inches as well ? that would make for roughly 18cm long feet, which does seems small for such a tall individual.

      I’l not a neuroscientist or physician but I don’t think balance has much to do with foot size. Anybody can walk fine on stilts after a day’s worth of training. I think it has more to do with the inner ear

    You have the biggest hands. Some might say the best hands. A doctor once told you they were the greatest hands he has ever seen
