I don’t think shoe size matters at all that much in predicting adult height, unless extreme sizes. My son is 12 and wears men’s 7 (women’s 8.5) and is shorter than me. I’m 5’5”

Similar timeline. My DH is tall though (6'1"). Son is 5'11" at 16.5.

How old? My kids were high 90s percentiles when they were young.

This was me! So it seems my kid doesn’t have growth spurts but is more a slow and steady guy. He’ll be 14 in a few months and is 5’9” with a size 10 shoe. The shoe size has stayed the same for probably almost 2 years but it’s the same size DH wears so maybe his foot is done?

12yo DS is 5'7". He passed my mom last winter, and is catching up quickly to me. His feet are bigger than mine, he wears a 9 men's (DH wears a 10). But he's only 90 lbs soaking wet!


This was me a few years ago. That kid did in fact pass me up shortly after he turned 13. Second kid is now 13 and only has an inch to go to catch up with me, but he grew >4 inches lat year so I don't think it'll take long!

I'm 5'3. My ex husband is 6'2. Both my kids were taller than me in 7th grade. They constanly put things up in the kitchen cabinets that I cannot reach.

I’m 5’7” and it happened this past year. He’s 13, will be 14 in a couple of weeks. He’s currently about 5’9” and will probably hit 6’ at some point.

I’m short and so is my son. He hit my height (5ft 3in) at age 15 or so. He stopped growing at 5ft 5in.

Either 11 or 12. I am 5’5”, dad is 6’5”. Son is now 14 and a bit over 6”. And he wears a size 13 shoe that’s getting tight. If not for C-19, I think he’d be in a 14 by now.
