OK, yes, inspired by the 5'8" weight thread, but I am curious to know if I have a freakishly large build for my height. I am 5'8", 13 stone 2 lbs (but loosing, aiming at 12 stone) and have big, broad size 8-9 feet. At my fattest, they were bigger than a 9. I can now pretty much rely on generous high street size 8s - M&S, White Stu,ff (and Land's end), also DM, Clark's but post 2 babies my feet ain't getting any narrower.

5'9", 11.5 stone (and losing) size 6 feet, size 18 top (much to my husband's delight) and size 12 bottom with very slim legs and hips and little bum.

5'9'' and have Size 41 feet. That usually means 7 and a half in UK sizes, though I take 8 in a few brands, eg Boden.

I'm 5'9", 12 st & size 7-8 but with very narrow ankles that make me wobble precariously in any kind of heel.

Am 5ft 9", size 8 feet, size 14 clothes. Am broad of hip and back, long legs, big boobs. Bit more kettlecise and spinning and I could be a defined hourglass again.

I'm 5'8" feet size 7 in length but so wide they are practically square! Usually end up buying size 9 wide fitting. So wish I could find pretty/elegant shoes! Sad

MamaChocoholic · 24/11/2012 11:42

5 11, size 10-11 feet, but really narrow. V jealous of all the size 8s!

Faxthatpam · 24/11/2012 11:50

I'm 5'8" size 6-7 feet (was 5.5 - 6 pre 4 DCs). Am classic apple - size 16 top, size 12 bottom, though aiming for 14/10. Long slim legs and small hips but people ask if I'm pregnant quite often Sad / Angry !

5'11", 12 st and size 8 feet. Really pleased to be able to get high street shoes, if they ever have 8's in stock. Size 14 since I was about 18 years old. Think my build would look strange much lighter.

hellymelly · 24/11/2012 22:36

Just under five foot eight. A bit over 10 stone which is at least a stone over my "proper" weight. Size 5 feet. Or 5.5 shoes sometimes as my feet are wide.

darksideofthemooncup · 24/11/2012 22:41

I am 5'10'' and a size 8 or 9 depending on how fat I am. My neighbour can't be much more than 5' tall and very slim but she also has size 8 feet.

steppemum · 24/11/2012 22:53

I am 5' 81/2 ''

size 10 feet

Nice to see some other size 10s out there, maybe we shoudl start a little quiche!!

So, size 10s where do you buy your shoes?

steppemum · 24/11/2012 23:28

don't tell me you have all gone to bed, I'll have to start a thread about it tomorrow Grin

(blatant thread hijack)

hortensemancini · 24/11/2012 23:38

5' 7" and size 42 feet since I was about 15.

I've grown to love my feet - I see them as long, rather than big, and I keep them nicely pedicured with an interesting colour on the toes, like seagreen or bronze. They're the one bit of me that doesn't put on weight and is always roughly the same size...

bigTillyMint · 25/11/2012 10:29

5'8", size 6 feet. Don't know what I weigh ATM, but am currently a size 12.

MrsDmitriTippensKrushnic · 25/11/2012 10:52

5'9-and-a-bit", and I have size 9 feet. Not telling you my weight but it's a good 4 stone more than it should be... Pre-Dc I used to wear 8's (but they were uncomfortable until they wore in, so I guess I was probably more a 8.5) I'm quite irked that now it's fairly easy to buy that size, they don't fit!

shadesofblue · 25/11/2012 11:33

MamaChocaholic me too, only wide rather than narrow. Feel v depressed around shoe-buying time normally just go for trainers again.

toffeefee · 25/11/2012 17:11

5' 10" with size 6 feet.

I have 3 friend with size 8 feet. One is about 5' 8", the other 2 are around 5' 6". Also a girl I went to school with had size 9 feet and she couldn't have been more than 5' 6".
