Do feet get bigger as we age?

I ordered shoes online and of course they didn't fit. Returned them and got a size up, still didn't fit.

I thought something was off, so I looked at the sizes of the shoes I currently wear and realized that I have been wearing a bigger size (that fits) over the last few years 🤔

Mine sure did. I wore a size 7-7 1/2 when I graduated from high school and now I wear a size 9 1/2…

@cherokeepatti wowwie, that's a big jump.

@iamnikki it is considering I didn’t grow in height even a little bit

@cherokeepatti did you have kids? I've heard feet get bigger with pregnancy. I sure hope not

@iamnikki I had one. I thought it was because I was walking a lot or working and on my feet so much. I know they are wider than they were when I was young.

@cherokeepatti [c=004A59]In college, I gained 2.5 inches in height, but only one shoe size. [/c]

@SW-User I stopped growing in height by the time I was 15.

@cherokeepatti [c=004A59]Isn't that kind of young? I stopped growing in height at 18.[/c]

@SW-User I don’t know if it was young or not for a woman.
