Question 3

size 8 shoe, what's a predicted height?

Shoe size: There is no formula to determine height based on shoe size.

Question 4

does shoe size stop growing before height?

Accepted Answer

Usually...: Maturity in the foot is typically marked by the presence of all the tarsal bones, the closure of the epiphyseal plates (including the secondary site the heel and the lateral side of the 5th metatarsal) and the presence of the sesamoids.

Question 5

is it possible for you to estimate height from childs shoe size?

Accepted Answer

Not reliably: The expected height of a child is the average of the parents height plus 2.5 inches if a male and minus 2.5 inches as a female. That general statement has more predictive value than a childs shoe size.

Question 6

at what age does a person stop growing height, and also shoe size?

Accepted Answer

Around 18: Most of the bones of the foot stop growing around the age of 18.  By looking at an x-ray of the foot a doctor can tell if the bone has stopped growing.
Some people may continue to grow a short time after 18 but that is the age for most people.

Question 7

if a boy is 5'0" with size 9 shoes at 12 what is his estimated adult height?

Accepted Answer

Unsure: Shoe size, age and height will not give an accurate estimate of adult height.  At 13 i was 5'10' with a shoe size of 9 and I am 6'1'.  My son had a shoe size of 9 at age 13, was 5' 0' tall and stopped growing at 5'10'.  X-rays of the growth center will allow the provider to guess but it will only be a guess.

Question 8

hellow sir , i m a16 6month year old girl my shoe size is 9 inch ehat will be my height please tell?

Accepted Answer

A tall order.: Difficult to tell with the information given. You might take a good look at your parents, because more than likely , you will be some where in the vicinity of their height.

Question 9

hello my son has been very concerned about his height recently. he is 15, 5'8" and wears a size 13 shoe. recently we went to one of his doctors (not primary) and after looking at an x-ray she said he was almost done growing. it didn't make sense to either

Accepted Answer

Observation: At 15 yrs your son is nearing end of adolescent growth spurt which for boys occurs thru age 18 yrs. The bone growth plates begin to fuse eg. (closure) beyond which growth ceases. Additionally, sexual maturation is also progressing. Boys can show a delayed growth pattern which is hereditary, similar to dad at this age. Advise son to eat a well-balanced diet, keep yearly wellness exams &amp; immunize.

Question 10

are my feet to large for my body im 168cm in height and size 9uk 10usa shoe size and if my feet are too big are their any issues with that?

Accepted Answer

You're fine: Life is too difficult already to worry about whether your feet are disproportionately large. This is not a sign of any illness, and we're certainly not going to try to make them smaller. If somebody is claiming your feet are big, say you have a good "under-standing". If you are preoccupied with this, you might benefit from treatment for body dysmorphic disorder.
