I'm a 6'1" man with size 3 feet which means every time they measure my feet at a shoe store, the Brannock device tells me I'm not a man

  • Yes they are. Like 5 3/4" in length which I think is pretty small. Luckily this issue didn't affect any other parts of me!

  • Haha yes indeed. You don't know me Brannock device! Some men have footlets and that's okay.

  • You're right I usually do buy online. I only went in to a fancy running store that just opened up because I do run and was wondering if they had anything other than youth sizes so they had to measure me (and I took this photo because I thought it was hilarious). They did in fact have a better running shoe for me!

  • Good question. You would think but my calf and foot muscles are quite strong to compensate for what I lack in foot surface area. They do get sore after a long day but nothing too crazy.

    • I'm a 6'1" (185 cm) man with stupidly small size 3 US (EU 34) feet. I've never met another adult with smaller feet than me.

  • Not as many issues as you might think. Of course, I have a smaller foot surface area to work with so not as steady on my toes but I have strong foot and calf muscles to compensate I think and keep me relatively stable. I can run fine but kid's shoes are not designed for a 6'1" 170 lb man to be running in them so I go through shoes like crazy. Mostly it's just social issues - my feet and hands are quite noticeably small so I get comments from strangers a lot. But I just try to laugh it off and be good humored about it.

  • Unfortunately no. I did get a discount foot massage once though.

  • Yes people do notice on at least a weekly basis. The size difference is quite dramatic compared to normal sized shoes. My foot next to a pair of size 9s

    And size 10

  • 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.

  • Can you give me some of your shoe size bro? Thanks.

  • Yes every now and then but for the most part can walk and run fine. Windy days are a killer though.

    • I have weirdly small (size 3) feet for my height (6'1")

  • Nah that part of me was spared fortunately

  • Yes thinking about this as a treat for my birthday coming up. I have a few pairs of kid's dress shoes but they're pretty clunky - mostly designed for kids to wear at church. Near impossible to find something more stylish.
