We Are All Odd But Do You Know Just How Odd You Are?

Wow! That's one shoe size bigger! I think, my left upper arm is little fatter than the right upper one! This i found out while wearing a tight fitting blouse the other way round by mistake some years ago. It would fit in but slightly on tighter side. Now, I am sure. Huggles back to you.

no, I do know that one foot is about half a size larger than the other, but they are both right about 7 1/2 and 8, depending on the shoes and how big a "toe box" they have

Yes, ellie we all have anomolese in our sizes of everything. That's why they say no two things are alike. This includes our eyes, ears, hands, finger, and yes feet. I always try my shoes on the bigger foot, as do all people that is in the family. And to try on a ring you always try it for the finger that you wish it to be one as they all even on either hand are different from another one.

Wow that is a big difference in sizes lol! I know one of mine has a foot about half a size bigger which is a bit of a pain but does not cost me more. I have noticed recently though that my daughter seems to have broad feet, she is a size 7 now but often a size 7 just will not go on her feet if it is a dainty 7 I have to look for the bulkier shoe that often seems broader. I may have to consider getting her fitted for shoes as she gets older.

I'm pretty semetrical so I don't have to worry about things like that.

Nobody is completely symmetrical. One leg or arm will be a tad longer than the other, some women have trouble getting a bra that will fit because their bre@sts are different sizes, etc. A full shoe size is a little unusual, usually 1/2 size is the norm, and we don't notice. My Mom always made me try on the left shoe first because it's common for the "off" foot to be bigger. (If you're right handed your left foot will be bigger). The most comfortable pair of shoes I ever had were picked off a sale table. One was size 8 and the other was size 8 1/2. Somebody had evidently been just the opposite from me. I would like to be able to buy shoes that fit properly, but after this many years of one shoe being 1/2 size too big for one foot, I guess I'll just continue to live with it.

[i]Hi ellie, really? that is a big difference! LOL! I heard that it is normal for everyone that their one foot it bigger than the other whichever they use a lot for force but in my case, there are shoes really when I will try it, it is more tight in my left side but not a huge difference! In my case, it is obvious that my right hand is bigger and uglier than my left hand! LOL! I guess it is because I am right handed and always using this for a lot of works! LOL! [/i]

That is so interesting about your son's feet being a whole shoe size different. I don't know of a single part of my body that's bigger on one side than the other. I can see how the whole shoe thing could get pretty expensive, especially if, as an adult, you had such a difference in your shoe size. Hope his feet "equalize" as he grows older. Take care.

hi ellie..nice post as i also want to share with you that im also having a problem with the shoe size of my son..evrytime i buy shoes for him the sizes increase..so far..he was exactly the same size as me..250inches..my size was both same..have a nice day

Hi Ellie..the right side of me is latger than the left, when it comes to buying shoes it is a pain but I only have to get a pair of size six instead of five and a half, that is my main bugbear...Huggles littleowl

Hi Ellie, My thumb on my right hand is smaller than my thumb on my left hand. My dad always use to tell me that this was because i sucked my thumb as a child. It does not affect me as it is not that noticeable.

Hi ellie, My left leag is biggier then my right and I can 't pull my zip right up on my left legs so I can't wear boots and it diffucult to get an angle boots my size as I only wear sixe I or 2 but with jeans, I have to hem my leegs up everytime I buy them I am only four foot eight inches tall, so I really have proplems with my clothes. Love and huggles. Tamara xxxxx

Hi ellie333 Wow that is a bit odd, both your son and yourself!! LOL I don't think I do have anything bigger or longer on one side of my body than the other, am I the one that is odd? LOL . Anyway I don't think I have, I have never really looked so maybe I have!!

the reason i was asked for the earlier m sons feet measured and although i the past they have been the same size right of the country.

I am usually am quite symetric but sometimes the arms of a sweater is longer on one side than the other, but I have not had much problem with clothing that way.

I feel for you about your feet, I have strange eyes, I have what is consider low vision on one eye and legally blind on the other, I can still do be on the computer. IT causes me pain and discomfort and many trips to the optomistries in the past have left me knowing I have keratoconus and was in a area where most doctors knew nothing about it so that they could help me properly. *hugs*

Hey ellie! Now that is unusual! I know that there are parts of our bodies that are slightly off and that is supposedly normal! But, to have foot be a complete size larger where you have to break up a pair of shoes? Hopefully, his other foot will catch up or the other one will slow down! That is something I have never heard before. I could see that happening here! They would have made you buy 2 pairs of shoes because they would have told you that they can't break up a pair!

Wow I know that sometimes on leg or foot is slightly larger but this seems to be a considerable difference.My differences are mostly psychological or charecter based.At the ripe age of 32 I am a recluse and I am single and for most persons in my community this is odd.Most persons consider me an oddity because I dont talk much and I am merely seen outside my home ,just in and out like a ghost.Personally I am ok with this buut I know many persons consider this unusual and I can understand but ok nevertheless

I lucky because I don't need to buy a special pair
