If you are 5'7, what shoe size are you?

Always felt like my size 6s are quite large compared to my height. I have to wear insoles which takes up room so end up taking a 6.5 or 7, which seems even larger. I remember starting secondary school at 4'11 and a giant size 5! Anyone else with disproportionately large feet? My friend is the same height as me and she takes a 5 so mine seem rather big.

Well I'm 5.5 and a size 5 and mine seem normal. I don't think a 6 is big at all 😄

FluffyPersian · 19/05/2021 15:12

I'm 5ft7.5 (the half makes all the difference!) and I'm an 8... so you have smaller feet than me Smile

Same as above poster. Look like a golf club with massive boobs.

5ft 8 and size 8. Used to be so embarrassed to have big feet but hey, I'm sort of OK now I accept it

HunterHearstHelmsley · 19/05/2021 15:13

5ft7 (and a half). Size 6. Pretty much most women I know are shoe size 6, strangely.

FeistySheep · 19/05/2021 15:13

The average woman in the UK has size 6 feet, and is 5'4 in height. Therefore your feet are smaller than average for your height OP!

ChristinaRussell · 19/05/2021 15:13

I'm 5'8" and size 6/6.5 (40). I think it's a perfectly normal size for my height and frame.

Sparticle · 19/05/2021 15:14

I'm 5' 5" and have size 8 feet. Always been annoyed with that tbh as smart shoes look huge and very long on me compared to my height.

4PawsGood · 19/05/2021 15:15

Six and I’ve always felt they were small!

As mentioned above, we are average in shoe size and tall in height.

MrsLCSofLichfield · 19/05/2021 15:15

5'7" and 6.5 - seems normal to me!

inigomontoyahwillcox · 19/05/2021 15:16

6 1/2 - so end up in with a 6 or 7 dependent on brand/style

Bigwave · 19/05/2021 15:17

7

Isababybel · 19/05/2021 15:17

Im 5'8 and was size 5 from age 13 to 28, and then randomly went upto a size 6 (not due to my dd who wasn't around then).

Oohhaveabanana · 19/05/2021 15:18

5' 6" and a good size 7. Was always a 6 until I had my children. Had to get rid of all my nice size 6's!

EveryThingWillBeWorthIt · 19/05/2021 15:19

I'm 5ft 7.5in and I only have size 4 feet - it is a great source of amusement to my DP who thinks it shouldn't be able to stand up Grin

AprilShowerThoughts · 19/05/2021 15:20

6.5. Used to be a 5 in my twenties - defo got the pregnancy feet thing but OMG the relief a few years back when I just tried the bigger size and IT ACTUALLY FIT. I'd been uncomfortable for a decade or more just because I had it in my head I was a 5!

ElspethFlashman · 19/05/2021 15:21

5'7 and a solid 40.

41 in tight shoes.

I think it's pretty normal.

BanningTheWordNaice · 19/05/2021 15:21

Size 4-4.5. I was diagnosed with dyspraxia as a kid but my boyfriend has a theory my feet just aren’t long enough for me to balance 🤣

LettyLoman · 19/05/2021 15:23

Im just taller than 5’7 and my foot length is 6.5/7. In men’s shoes I can sometimes get away with a 7 but I usually wear an 8. My feet are really wide so I have to size up. I envy size 6 feet as that seems “normal”.

NoBetterthanSheShouldBe · 19/05/2021 15:23

7 but extra wide, so can vary. I’m 167cm tall

IToldYouIWasFreaky · 19/05/2021 15:23

@FluffyPersian

I'm 5ft7.5 (the half makes all the difference!) and I'm an 8... so you have smaller feet than me Smile
Snap! The half-inch is VERY important. Grin
goshthatsawful · 19/05/2021 15:23

I’m an inch shorter than you and wear 4.5

SaskiaRembrandt · 19/05/2021 15:25

I'm 5'9" and take a 6, everyone else I know who takes a 6 is about 5'2". You have small feet for you height, OP.

tiredanddangerous · 19/05/2021 15:25

7

Bluntness100 · 19/05/2021 15:27

Op I’m not sure it’s about the size of your feet as such but more about the width

I’m five eight and take a size seven and a half to an eight. But my feet look small /dainty as I have very narrow feet. My friends feet are a size five and look much bigger than mine as her feet are very wide. So even though they are smaller they look bigger due to the width.
