I'm 5'6" with size 17 feet anyone else a hobbit? I'm 5'6" with size 17 feet anyone else a hobbit?

I’m a 5'6" man but I was born with disproportionately big hands and feet due to a benign genetic quirk. Now my feet are size 17 US wide. My friends all call me the hobbit or the L (because that's what I look like from the side) and I can't disagree.

It’s kinda weird walking around with everyone having smaller feet than you basically and shoe shopping and bowling can get awkward fast. But I can walk and run fine so I guess I’m lucky. Just wondering if there’s any one else with a similar condition or with tips on shoes etc.

Have you ever considered becoming a professional kicker for your local NFL team?

They prolly have open tryouts at some point every year.

humans are a mystery and come in all proportions, don't worry.
I really hope you don't have this condition: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/acrome...her%20symptoms.

even if they say it's treatable.

how old are you? do your relatives have such big feet too? did you go a few doctors?

the symptoms do not fit so much here:

Early symptoms include:

"swollen hands and feet – you may notice a change in your ring or shoe size
tiredness and difficulty sleeping, and sometimes sleep apnoea
gradual changes in your facial features, such as your brow, lower jaw and nose getting larger, or your teeth becoming more widely spaced
numbness and weakness in your hands, caused by a compressed nerve (carpal tunnel syndrome)
Children and teenagers will be abnormally tall.

As time goes on, common symptoms include:

abnormally large hands and feet
large, prominent facial features (such as the nose and lips) and an enlarged tongue
skin changes – such as thick, coarse, oily skin, skin tags, or sweating too much
deepening of the voice as a result of enlarged sinuses and vocal cords"


for questions like this quora is a goldmine: I'm 3 minutes into looking into this and found 3 people already similar to you. it's probably noting bad. and you look good man. chicks will dig big hands and feet.

someone let rickroll know how valuable quora is for stuff like this.

how come it looks like your legs are more hairy in the barefeet pics? I'm not saying you're trolling, that could have something to do with the lighting etc.

Please send more pics.

For shoes the open bins and racks at Burlington ... where big sizes are sold at steep discount. I wear about a 14 but at times have bought athletic shoes in 17 there at $10 a pair. Couldn't resist if a great style so cheap. Better than too small for sure and if you aren't doing anything in them sports wise it's okay. But I see them there at 16-18 sizes all the time. They generally start at $49, then 39, then 29 ... if they are there too long they give them away at $10.

Go ahead and spell it out so we don't have to zoom in and analyze it like Dr. Scholl. The pic at the bookstore seems distorted, but maybe it isn't.

ok, he is claiming his hands and feet are disproportionately bigger, when looking at the pics, his hands are average. then he has some weird bulge, an imprint on his socks.

why is he wearing socks? some weird inlays. weird imprints are visible on the sole of his socks. he then gets called out for this on the mma forum, and he provides barefoot pics. 2 more pics get provided that show 2 different people, different body hair and amount of body hair and colour. veins are also not matching. look at the big toe shapes.

I think I got enough to conclude this is a troll. 99.9% convinced.

but please confirm for yourself, I might be off.

best indicator is, he isn't hairy as the additional pictures show. that's clearly 2 different people. Pete Sampras isn't even as hairy as the person there, that definitely isn't op. I can tell because I'm as hairy as Pete Sampras and can tell if someone is hairy looking at his body hair, in this case his arms were my indicator
