Do small feet automatically mean kid is going to be short?

[Anonymous]

My 11 year old DS wears size 3. He says he has the smallest feet in the grade! Any chance this means he’s not destined to be tiny?

I’ve been wondering this too for the opposite reason. My petite daughter has a big shoe size, one of the biggest in her class even though she is one of the shortest kids. I kind of think there isn’t a correlation with height.

No. Just like big feet don’t mean someone will be tall.

He will still grow a lot. My sons feet grew 2 sizes in 5 months this year.

I think in general short people have shorter feet and tall people have longer feet, but there are plenty of exceptions. I am 5’3” and wear a size 8 which I think is above average. My friend is 5’7” and wear a size 7.

How tall is he?

My DH has very large feet but is only 5’9”, so I don’t think it necessarily means anything.

My 12 year old and her 12 year old friend are the same height but one is a size 5 and one is a 9.

I don't think foot size correlates to height. Wrong correlation.

He will likely not be on the tall side and that is totally fine.

? I think there is a general statistical correlation here.

But the OP I think is asking whether small show is a predictor of future height vs. whether it's correlated to height more generally. At least that' show I understood the question.

Almost 6 feet and 7 1/2.

How do you not blow over?! I’m 6’ with a size 10 and that’s what I’d say when I was being teased ‘they keep me from blowing over’.

He’s about 40th percentile for height. I think that was 4’ 6” at age 10.
