Hi guys!

Strange question but is there a relation between the shoesize and the height? I ask this because I have size 46 EU (12,5 US) and normally I should be around 190 or even more but I am not which is kind of strange for me.

[RealLostSoul]

indirectly yes.
Taller people tend to have bigger shoes but there are a lot of exceptions. i have seen 5'6 people with EU 45 and 6'1 people with EU 41. I heard that people in the US have bigger feet on average because of the different nutrition but I don't know if it's true.

but shoe size doesn't matter at all (if you don't have child size shoes obviously).

on average probably, but exceptions are not rare at all i guess.

my brother is 8cm taller than me but we wear practically the same shoe size (0.5 more than me). Go figure

fat people often have bigger shoes than thin people in my experience. maybe if the foot is broad you need a bigger size and thin a smaller one.

Your foot is equal to your forearm length and forearm length is directly proportional to height, you can find various online charts used to determine height from forearm length but not everyone is perfect usually your forearm would be proportionally longer to your height.

This guy woke up and chose to spit facts

Well, what the previous user said is totally right.
I'm 168cm with same size of shoes as my female friend who's 171cm, and just a bit bigger feet than a female friend who's 158cm. Don't get thinking about it too much.
Also there are some studies who says that feet size increases with tetosterone application, you can search about it

[thesolution]

Yeah generally people would have longer forearms because men have longer wingspan, above mentioned relation is true if your "Vitruvian man" lol btw curious how long is your foot and arms ( just curious)

Yeah, that would be the ideal, but humans vary a lot. Search about standard deviation and Gaussian function. Taller and short people would be considered as same deviation, but for different sides of the function. You can apply that to almost anything

[Future Skycraper]

Yeah, true! let me see... my feet are ~24cm, my fore arm is ~26cm, arm lentgh is about ~75cm and my wingspan is around 174cm

[Serilium]

168cm to 183cm? What the shmucks?
