One foot smaller than the other - advice please.

Haha. I totally misunderstood this thread..... I am One Foot Smaller than my DH height-wise.
I'm not bothered by it but he insists on walking on the lower part of the pavement when we go out for our daily constitutional.
We've been married for 52 years now so I don't think things are going to change - we're shrinking at the same rate.

I am smaller down one side than the other and once I noticed that, I cannot unsee it. I can now see it in my children too!

I also have a difference in shoe size. I stuff toilet paper in the front of the smallest shoe so they don't slide off if they don't have a strap to hold my foot in. It takes a bit of jiggling to get it perfect but does the trick. I have to make sure the front top of the shoe isn't too short and comes further up the foot a bit to allow for this.

My right foot is a size 4 and a half,and my left a 5,has been since i was 14.
I just put an insole in the left shoe.

Actually, if you really study yourself, you will find a lot of similar things.
When getting new specs from the opticians, one of my ears is at a different level to the other, so my specs never sit straight.
Also, look at your face and you will see one half of your face is fatter than the other. You can confirm this by taking a full front face photo and holding a mirror on the centreline. It's really weird.

In an ideal world there would be a club where you could hook up with someone who has the same problem but with opposite feet. And of course they would have to have the same taste in shoes! There are some good posts here, so hope you find something suitable.

Shoes that hold on only by being tight between toe and heel are bad for feet, toes, nails, as they HAVE to be too short for your foot to move properly. Shoes with something over the top of your foot (strap, lace, velcro etc) can be long enough to allow your foot to move naturally. Odd the unforeseen effects of loosing weight. Maybe some of the new knit shoes (Vivaia?) would square the circle.

I have this issue too😁 one foot is size 4.5 the other a 5 🙄

Update! Google Clarks Odd Shoe Scheme

I could be completely wrong but, I'm sure I recall that Clark's sell odd size shoes as long as there is at least a full size difference between the feet. It would be worth an email to their head office

I have one foot slightly smaller than the other. I buy to fit the smaller foot and use a shoe stretcher for a few days until the bigger foot is comfortable. This wouldn't work if the size difference was big of course.

Instead of an insole, try using one of the adhesive strips you can buy (sorry can't think what they are called) to put inside the the back of the shoe - the part of the upper that fits your heel,

That might help.

Have you tried wearing a socklet of the thin nylon kind that can't be seen above the shoe on your smaller foot.

My left big toe is shorter than my right, so I have to buy shoes that fit my right foot in length, and my suggestions help the shoe to fit my left foot better.

Thank you everyone. I shall research further on the inserts and will probably stick mainly to shoes with straps or laces in future!

Yes, very common. A good shoe shop should be able to advise, if not, go to a foot specialist, many Scholl shops have visiting ones.

Quite common for feet to be of slightly different sizes. The Scholls shoe shops (haven't seen one for ages) used to sell all sorts of inserts, some adhesive.. heel/toe/sole.. to remedy this. Presumably such items are still available on line.

My niece had the same problem, I believe there is a company that sells shoes of different sizes, it is called Helpshoe.com I think.
I hope you can find a solution.
