This is funny. Women seem to want their feet smaller and guys like their feet bigger! I'm a size 11 and my feet haven't changed at all. I wonder if it has anything to do with the old wives tale of the size of feet compared to other things???

My size 12 chuck taylors seem to fit a little better these days. I actually have to lace them up all the way now instead of leaving the last two eyelets open. But my feet fill them front to back just the same. I'm excited for your wow moment, but shoes in and of themselves don't excite most guys I would think. Am I right Dave?

Hooty hoo, girl! I am pleased to read a wow moment from you, with all of the other crap you have gone through.

My feet shrank (is that a word?) too, but not as much. I was a 10 and now in 9, and some 9 1/2's. We had little fat feet, didn't we?
