The "how tall are you" poll made me wonder what your guy's shoe size is.

Also, if you have small feet, do you feel is hinders passing at all?

I'm size 7 in the UK.

UK 6, think that's a US 7?

I'm a size 9.5 to a size 10.5.

You don't have any option for greater than 10, I think.  The >10 is meant for greater than 10 and the <10 is less than ten, I think.

lol fixed it's too early in the morning for me >.>

6.5ish. I'm that awkward size between boys' and men's standard sizes that's not stocked in any brick-and-mortar store.

If I could find shoes that fit, I don't think the size of my feet would be a problem for passing. Unfortunately the styles and brands available to me are restricted by the difficulty of finding my size, and that does affect passing, especially as a gay guy.

I'm a US size 8.5 in mens

Yay!  I can vote now, lol.  Thanks! =)

Edit:  I lied.  In Men's I'm a 9-ish to a 10-ish.  All depends on the style of shoe....not like I wear men's shoes. XD  I kind of like my shoes that are really really comfortable.

You ever have trouble finding shoes in the women section that big? Size 10 and up women's shoes seem to be slim pickins in stores I go to.

I'm all about comfort too. I usually just where a pair of chucks.

UK size 8, so a US size 9 I think. Except Adidas trainers which usually run small so I have to get a size bigger which would make them a US 10 :o

Yeah...I have issues finding shoes, but I was able to find a pair of keds that are so comfortable and have the right arch support--I gained a shoe size after surgery on my toes and it was pretty cool to find something that fits.

If your feet actually grow when you go on T, you'll have to start shopping in the men's section for sure. And you're so tall too. I'm so envious lol.

I didn't even think about the style availability for smaller sizes.  :( I can see how that would effect passing. What online stores do you buy your shoes from?

Ok....I have small feet...so I wear a size 7 in the boys section.... it's hard to find some stuff but for the most part I do okay

I doubt my feet will grow too much...or I hope they don't because I have two toes on each foot that won't be able to grow in the least. XD  And I'll trade you my height, lol.

I'm a size 4 in the UK, I think this is a US size 6? I aint too sure on the conversion

You'll give me your feet and I will give you mine!

I wear a 6 1/2 I did wear a seven, but apparently when I lost weight so did my feet. XD

I wear a size 5 in mens. I have to shop in the little boys dept.

I wear size 8-9 in men's shoes. I always had big feet "for a girl," so I'm pretty happy about the size of my feet. :)

i'm a US men's 8.5-9.  my feet are really wide, and even have some hairs on the top, so i like to think of them as HOBBIT FEET.

I'm right in between a 7.5 & an 8 in men's.  But I go with 8's because I want bigger shoes lol.   :laugh:

I'm a UK 6.5, which is apparently a 7 in US size.

I can't buy online because my feet are hard to fit and I need my shoes to fit particularly well because I blister easily.

US Men's size 9.

Happy to wear men's shoes now, since women's shoes were so ridiculous and painful, not to mention hard to find at US size 10; even though I knew a lot of women who wore that size, the shops only rarely carried it (or I guess, they sold out quickly).

I wear a 7 in shoes.

I wear an 8.5 (US) in my running shoes but usually smaller in dress shoes for some reason... ???

I'm 5 foot 2 and wear men's size 8.5/9. Doctors kept telling my parents that I was going to be very tall since I had large hands and feet compared to the rest of my body...how wrong they were.

It kinda depends on the brand. I've worn from 5-7.

Wearing 11.5 right now. Some brands US I only wear a 9.5.. but for Nike it's always 11.5. I really hope T doesn't cause my feet to grow, because I have a nice collection of expensive shoes. :/

About 5 foot 9.

I'm a size 7 in converse, size 8 in everything else.  I haven't really thought much about whether my shoe size factors into my gender presentation.  It is what it is.  Now, if I had a choice, I'd definitely go up a size or two.  But I don't think it would affect someone's passing unless they had really tiny feet.

10 converse (really 9.5 but I can't find that anywhere, so a little loose is fine by me)
10.5-11 anything else

I have hairs on the top of my feet too. A random patch of long hairs. It's really weird o.O   I wonder if more will grow there on T.

US Men's 6.5

depends what i wear, but usually 10.5 for skate shoes, 10 for my merrell boots right now. harness boots are weird sizes so i wont even go there lol but i know i dont fit in any of the woman sizes anyways, and i take a wide (my feet are wide thats why i mostly wear skate shoes for shoes, or boots)

You guys have big feet!
I'm a men's 6.5 - 7. It's a pain, because in most stores, boy's sizes go up to 5, and men's start at 8. I mostly stick to converse and vans, since they're unisex.

Oh GOD yes :o. Didn't think I'd find anyone that'd get my shoe-shopping pain ::).

8.5 in US, but for marching band I wear size 10, since Drill Masters a bit small of a shoe in my opinion.

That's weird. Most places I shop, mens start at 7 not 8.

Yep, that makes 3 of us :( I've always had to wonder wtf 13-year-old boys do for shoes.

Well, occasionally they have a 7 (or more often a 7.5) available in some brands in some sizes, but it's not reliable, and for those of us who are really closer to a 6.5 than a 7, it severely limits our selection - we have to find a brand that runs small already, and then find a shoe model that is actually available in a 7.

Generally, my shoe size is 10 (which is where I voted), but depending on the brand or type of shoe, it can be different. In athletics, I'm about an 8-9, in Chucks I'm 9 1/2 currently. In Vans, I'm a 10.

It really depends greatly on the type and brand of the shoe, but generally I'm somewhere around a 10.

i hate my feet sooo much. theyre soooo small. like a 5 mens. they make me so uncomfortable and my hands too i have to buy kids gloves
