As a baby I was born with a pituitary issue which meant my hands and feet were abnormally small. They never grew that large at all. I can run and walk fine and they’re not deformed or anything, just tiny. I might have some weird world record for smallest hands and feet on a fully grown adult!
I showed this to my fiance; she’s 5’ and has the same exact shoe size.
It always bummed me out that the larger size sneakers were usually ugly compared to the smaller display models. Consider yourself lucky there.
I bet he can also walk stilts easily
Do you have issues with balance or rapid change of direction?
In some dark corner of the internet, there is someone willing to pay a LOT of money for videos of you doing weird shit with your feet.
Which dark corner tho?
Not that dark at all. Its called OnlyFans. Although I am sure more “specific” communities more devoted to feet could yield better income. Where those are? No idea. I can barely stand the sight of my own feet without socks.

Color me intrigued.
I don’t like feet. Not all that interesting really. Just a personal quirk.
Reverse hobbit!
Glad to see you take your uniqueness in stride.
You know what they say about guys with tiny feet…
They have a helluva time finding shoes that fit right.
Indeed. Have to buy online. Shoe stores are too awkward.
Upside: the variety of light up shoes you can buy must be much higher than the average adult!
And superhero themed Velcro sandals!
And a lot of converse chuck taylor styles like the dinosaur ones, lol.
😂😂😂
As someone with moderately long but exceptionally wide feet, having tiny feet seems like it’d be much easier to find shoes that fit…
Bro is built like a Gazelle
I was thinking mountain goat. Need those smaller feet to stand on narrow ledges.
He could be the monster in a climbing based horror franchise.
Born with small feet, he was banished to the mountains where he turned his curse into a means for survival.
Wide shot of a group of hunters following a trail near a rock face
“I thought it was wolves eat’n all them sheep. Couldn’t have imagined that small feet kid lived all those years out here alone.”
“It’s a confounding thought, Emmit, how you think that thing managed?”
“Boy howdy, that’s the mystery of it all. Maybe we ought not to know.”
Pan up to show small feet guy perched on a narrow rock ledge above. He jumps down, fade to black over hunters screaming.
“This summer, remember to look up.”
We need more pics of your feet and had next to other people’s ones… or bananas for scale.
Here’s a photo of my foot next to my friend’s size 11 foot…

Jokes on you, the Internet has your feet now!
Lucky bastard, kids shoes are tax free!
I know this cos my wife has got 34 feet too and is delighted every time she finds a bargain
You guys really deserve that tax break given how expensive it must be to buy all 34 shoes for your wife.
Even at just five bucks a shoe, that’s $170 every time you go shoe shopping. Brutal. OP’s wife must be 4.25 octopuses.
Octopuses wouldn’t wear shoes so the math doesn’t add up.
Now spiders—spiders would wear some stylish kicks you know, not just any $5 shoe.
Fucksake you two, octopii wear wellies
Haha yes the lower price on shoes is certainly a perk!
You might be really good at rock climbing
I just don’t get how all of your other bones grew while your hands and feet didn’t. Your pituitary just outputs growth hormone (among other things), and then your liver converts that to the more active form, igf1. Seems like there must have been some lowered expression of igf1 in the bones of your hands and feet somehow which would be neat
When you shake people’s hands, does it ever throw people off?
Yes that’s essentially what’s happened. And yes, definitely throws people off. Everyone’s hands inevitably swallow mine during handshakes.
An old friend of mine was born with two fingers and a thumb on his right hand. Instead of awkward left hand handshakes he just owns it and freaks people out.
A friend of a friend was born without arms and he does the same thing. His is up there on my list of most fascinating handshakes. He doesn’t pay bus fare either.
I must have stolen your hand and foot growth. I’m 5’3 (160 cm) and wear a women’s size 12 (euro 42).
I must have got some of it as well.
1.67cm and wear a men’s size 43 shoes.
If I were you, I’d find a cordwainer to make custom leather shoes.
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.
Petite feet, feminine step! Sounds just like a lady when he walks into the room!
