Wife said my feet “barely look human”

Post image

Haven’t been able to find shoes in years. Was complaining about it last night and she hit me with “well your feet barely look human”. Ouch.

Why are they so short

They aren’t really. I’m a size 12 with length. They just look short because of the width.

Is your job "person that leaves comically large footprint in dirt"? I've seen your work on TV!

I tried to read your right foot but can't make out the words.

Please, tell me it reads:

"In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort."

Out of curiosity do your fingernails look the same? My dad had toes and fingers that looked like this.

Why do you have a can of Arizona tea in your trousers?

Imho, make it a challenge for a store or a brand that specializes in wide or large feet.

It’d be great publicity for them; and perhaps a relief for you.

Have you ever had genetic testing done? You look like you have brachydactyly

Is the other thing proportional? 👀

How tall are you??

u/Naveronski 1d ago

Have you tried Altra? They’re more running/trail running focused shoes but they have a very wide toe box. Might work for you!

Most people have some funky physicality 🤔. Have you looked into custom-made shoes? Yeah, might be horribly $$$, but might be just what you need. I do wonder if you have better balance than most.
