How tall are you?

[The Yankee]

All this talk about height makes me wonder about shoe sizes. However, there are different scales...I know the US, UK, and Europe's are different. Still...could be interesting...given we all seem to be, on average, taller than average (looking at the poll).

BTW, I'm size 18 American.

Sweet mother of god! You must occasionally take out small farming villages with those Shaq feet!

I'm a perfectly respectable (Am)11-12 (depending on the shoe) which places me at 29cm, the maximum size you can find in Japanese stores, so I can thankfully buy shoes here too.

P.S. If you want to start a new poll, here are the conversions:

USA 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
Eur 37, 38, 39.5, 41, 42, 43, 44.5, 46
UK 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
Jpn n/a, n/a, 24.5, 25.5, 26.5, 27.5, 28, 29

(I hope it comes out in the spacing.)

Beyond 12, well, wow.

EDIT: Of course, it didn't. Count spaces between commas then.

I'm a small guy, I'm 15 and 5 months old and I'm only 5' 4" with a size 11 shoe.

 

[Smaasnekje]

Shoe size 44

 

[Gainy]

I'm a UK size 10...

 

[bioartist]

I'm only 5' 2" and I stopped growing when I was 12.

But at least I'm taller than my mom (4' 11")

US shoe size 12, which is fortunate, because any larger than that, and it becomes difficult to find shoes at most places. (I know, because as a teenager, when everone wears shoes that are too big, I did wear 13).

I'm 12 years old and i am 5' 8".

Guys, can you pls keep the shoe size posts to the shoe size thread, and post on-topic here? Thanks.

 

[Knight-Dragon]

On-topic, not very sure... Last time I measured was in high school - 168cm (?). That was 10-12 years ago...

I voted for the 160-170 slot. Quite short by Western standards (or even Asian) - don't care.

last time I was measured, when I was 14, I was 5'11', now that I'm 16... I suppose 6' even isnt to extreme, so thats what I put

 

[Cecasander]

I'm rather a bit small for my age; about 1.80 m.
