size 42 sneakers
Posted by usc146 on Mar 25th 2011

Hello to all i have been trying for a couple of days to upload pictures of 2 pairs of size 42 sneakers that i had made with a company for a kid that was wheel chair bound. He was 7’4 to 7’5 just a fantastic kid who had a tumor growing next to the pituitary gland which caused him to grow large he was 19 when he had passed away. I was trying to share some photo’s with the Group and i noticed some pictures are uploaded and then some are not. I will keep trying i wanted to share the pictures with the group and i’m thinking about selling them on Ebay I.D. ruthless35.

Shoe sizes in US sizing go up about a quarter inch each size. Size 3 is about 8.875 inches, and if you scale up from there you get size 42US as being a foot 18.625 inches long (quite literally a foot and a half).

The only other people who seem to have feet around that size were people like Robert Wadlow and such shoes cost a small fortune to be made properly. How much did ones that size cost out of curiosity?

I take a size 22 shoe and my foot is 14-5/8” long a size 42 would be
6-5/8” longer than my foot which would put it 21-14” long.

To put the size in perspective here is a web site showing a size 45 against a size 13.

The only other thing I can recommend is uploading them to something like imageshack.us and posting the links here. What is the problem when you try to upload them? Make sure the file extension (e.g .jpg) is all in lowercase.

I’m sorry but they don’t look size 43, surely they should be way bigger than that, they look more like size 20 something

Take a picture along side a tape measure so we can see what they measure end to end. My size 22’s are 16-1/4” and inside on the tag they have US 22, UK 21, Eur 56.5, and CM 40. If the ones you are showing are CM 42 that would make them a size 23 and they would measure around 16-3/4” long.

This was not to bring these pictures to a debate this was only to share with the Group.

Well, let’s be perfectly honest here. We’re not trying to shoot you down, we’re merely trying to establish what you state as fact so that there is no doubt cast upon your claim. This being said, what is the harm in taking the time out to fulfill a simple request, unless there is some merit to what the others are saying, of course.

EU 56.5? Size 22 Us would be more like EU size 59. 40CM equals size 60, 100 % sure ( EU sizes are 0.666 cm, so size 45 equals 30 CM , size 60 equals 40 CM )
