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

[goodsapphic]

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.

I'm 5'7" and shoes size 4 - feel that size 6 more usual though.

Size 7 at 5 ft 7, so is my Mum but my Gran is 5ft3 and also a size 7 so hers are a bit disproportionate .

I don’t think it’s disproportionate at this height at all. DH thought my feet were huge when I first told him my size, he seemed to think all women had size 5 feet.

5"7 and size 6, some shoes are 6.5 but mainly a 6

5ft 7 (and a half), size 6.5/7 (eu 40)

Cinderella Shoes
Magnus
Cristina.

They all stock a really good range of shoes etc for women who leave a larger footstep.

There are also lots of American suppliers if you don’t mind the postal charges etc.

5'7" and size 7 or 8

Size 6 before children. Now a size 7.

This explains different shoe sizes internationally.

5 ft 5.5 and my feet are UK size 7 (rarely 6.5).

You don’t have big feet for your height! Size 6 is average in the UK, and 5ft4 is average height so I’d say you’re smaller than average

6 is a small shoe size.

I'm a 7.5 or 8 and I'm shorter than you.

My sister is 5,6 & a size 7.5! I’m 5.10 and only size 5.5 - my feet look to small for me

5'7" and a size 41/42
DD is 5'8&1/2 and needs a size 9/ 43 shoe.
Women's shoes in a true 9/eu 43 are really hard to find. Don't start me on the companies that have 40 as a 7, 41 as an 8 and 42 as a 9....

I'm a size 9 or 10! My feet are the bane of my life!

NotMrsTumble yes I would imagine it would be quite hard to find shoes in that size. My sister is a wide 8 so most often wears a 9 and I wonder how she finds shoes to fit. She is a 42 EU I think. I've seen some shops only go up to a 41 which seems a bit ridiculous.

Now that I know where to buy shoes I feel no differently from anyone else who’s feet aren’t an average size though I can understand that if size isn’t the only consideration in place then it may be a bit more difficult to get what you want.

There are many UK only companies specialising in extended shoe sizes and many overseas who are happy to ship internationally.

I spent so long wearing awful shoes but not anymore, there’s so many places to buy them that even when I travel abroad I can be guaranteed to find shoe shops with large sizes shoes almost everywhere I go in Europe.

This picture is of my shoe cupboards and each cupboard holds about 35 pairs. Some of them though are shoes that I can’t see myself ever tiring of, my HOGL suede wedges for example, and I buy a few pairs of each just in case they ever stop production.

Shopping for extended sizes has never been so easy.

I’m just under 5 7” and am a size 6 but can get into a 5.5 too, depends on the shoe x

5'8 and a size 7.5 (which is annoying as 40 is generally too small and 41 too big in shoes!)

Size 41. Can you stop calling us all big footed and disproportionate please?

Shops aimed at younger women often stock up to a size 9 because foot sizes are getting bigger for younger people. That’s probably why you can get them at Office and Aldo and even Zara / H&M but not necessarily Dune or M&S.

Yes there definitely feels like an unpleasant undercurrent of women should be “dainty” and bigger than a 5 is freakish/“manly”

That makes sense Grumpy

This thread reminds me of my MIL who regularly exclaims very loudly what ENORMOUS feet my daughter has.

DD is 6'1 and her feet are a size 9.

I'm 5'7 and mine are a size 8-9. Used to be an 8 before children.

5'7" here with size 7 feet.
