At what age did your son's feet grow the fastest?

Omg, my kids never going to grow! He’s nearly 15 and his feet are size 5 or 6. Still not even a hint of puberty.

Are you seeing an endocrinologist? That is getting to be a little late (and my own DS was very late).

11-12 years old.

I wonder if shoe size is a good indication of how tall you would grow.

I don’t have sons, but that was true for my daughters. They went through 3 sizes in 6th grade and then they were done.

Same. I would like to know, because my DS already wears size 10 at age 12.

Wow. I better get my money together. Those sizes cost more and Nike is making shoes smaller and smaller. We switched to getting shoes from the adidas outlet and i usually buy ahead. I was going to get some size 6 and 7s but i guess I’ll wait and see if they skip over some sizes.

Good question Op!

A guy I went to high school with grew more than a foot taller after graduating
