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.

Size 6, wide feet, have always thought they were pretty average for my height tbh!

Aposterhasnoname · 19/05/2021 15:34

Size 7, but depending on the style sometimes 8 is better.

BarbaraofSeville · 19/05/2021 15:36

Mine are size 7 at least, they have to be a 41, sometimes what is sold as a 7 is actually a 40 or a 40.5, which is too small.

DM also has size 7 feet and she's only 5'2!. It's your friend who's the anomoly, not you OP.

I'm 5'7" and wear a 6, my feet are narrow and I think proportionate, but then I've never had any other sized feet to compare!

Tambora · 19/05/2021 15:39

5'7" and a bit.
Size 6.

CeibaTree · 19/05/2021 15:45

I'm 5"7 and wear size 6.5 or sometimes 7 👞

5ft 4 and size 8 shoe, I really don't think you have anything to worry about Hmm

goodsapphic · 19/05/2021 15:47

Bluntness100 I always thought it was the other way around. My feet are very narrow and always seem weirdly long and clownish for that reason. Perhaps because they are also attached to slim ankles. I have very thin and childlike wrists and ankles despite being a very medium clothes size 12.

Im 5ft 5" and a shoe size 5.
Your shoe size seems in proportion to your height and within average.

ivykaty44 · 19/05/2021 15:49

Snap! The half-inch is VERY important

mines missing, I shrunk and am just 5f7.......

size 6 feet and they haven't shrunk

User27aw · 19/05/2021 15:52

Size 6 (very occasionally a 7) I've never thought size 6 was big.

goodsapphic · 19/05/2021 15:52

I see my feet are about a normal size then. I have one friend who wears a size 4, she is about 5'3 at most and she thinks that size 4 is medium on any height. I kind of wonder how she thinks that taller women manage to balance.

I'm between 5'7" and 5'8" and I'm an 8 in shoes.

SweatyBetty20 · 19/05/2021 15:53

I'm 5ft6 and a size 9, thanks to a mum who was 5ft9 and a dad who was only 5ft10! I had the biggest feet in my family which is a bit shaming when your brother is 6ft and only takes an 8. It's a bastard trying to get shoes, especially walking boots, to fit, as I have to have a men's boot, which are too voluminous for my skinny feet, but hey, at least I won't blow over in the wind.

Nats1984 · 19/05/2021 15:53

5ft 8 and size 5. Wide though, don’t do dainty heels since they spread when DS was on board. Also still fat but that’s another story Hmm

DialsMavis · 19/05/2021 15:54

5ft 7.5 and size 8 feet, quite wide too Hmm

52andblue · 19/05/2021 15:55

5ft 7.5".
size 7 / 42 shoe
(was a 6 before kids, after that my feet both lengthened and spread)

Talipesmum · 19/05/2021 15:57

5’7” and a 7.5, but because they’re v wide I’m usually in an 8. My son is 4’9” age 10 and also has 7.5 size super-wide feet. I tell him they may be inconvenient to shop for, but we are verifiably good at balancing and walking on our nice sturdy feet!

Babyg1995 · 19/05/2021 16:01

5.7 size 5 1/2

CPsRus · 19/05/2021 16:04

7.5/8 (wide feet too)

CPsRus · 19/05/2021 16:04

@FluffyPersian

I'm 5ft7.5 (the half makes all the difference!) and I'm an 8... so you have smaller feet than me Smile
Also 5ft7.5!
Hughbert · 19/05/2021 16:07
  1. About an 8 width wise too unfortunately.
Luckymummytoone · 19/05/2021 16:09

7 and I’m 5ft7
