My FEET grew after age 30.
I consider myself an avid sneaker/shoe/boots collector. I have sneakers in boxes from back when I was about 25 years old - all size 11. I am 42 now. A few years ago when I went to buy some sneakers - I automatically bought a size 11 because that was my size. I bought many size 11s in my early 30s and they fit just fine. I returned them the next day for a size 12 and figured that sneaker just ran small. Long story short - when I try on my size 11s that I bought in my 20s and early 30s they no longer fit. The width is fine - I'm talking about the toe. Now 11.5 is too small and I am a size 12. Lots of sneakers/shoes/boots that are too small for me now. Good thing is my son is 17 yrs old - size 10.5 so he has inherited my collection.
Any of you guys over 30 experience the same thing?
I guess this is normal.
