Over the last 4 years i’ve barely worn shoes like 30 days in total. Today I noticed my previously best fitting shoes are like a size too big.

Ive also lost 40 kg from the point i bought these shoes. Have the shoes shape been ruined or have my feet shrunk??

    How is it possible to wear shoes for 30 total days in 4 years? That seems like an incredibly low number.

      Sandals, flip-flops, slippers.

      I live in a culture where people don’t wear shoes ever.

          I know this is veering off the course of discussion a bit, but I think I’d prefer to stand in shit with my bare foot than with a shoe on, because it’s much easier to clean off. Unless I haven’t got anything to hand to clean it with and I’ve come to the field wearing shoes.

      Working from home, I’d imagine. Since covid, I think I’ve only put on real pants maybe 8 times.

      Could be shoes that only get worn on special occasions. I have a pair of ghillie brogues that I only wear a few times a year

      Edit: wait, never mind, I see now that OP meant shoes in general, not a specific pair

        The difference is that shoes that are fully enclosed need to fit you pretty well to be comfortable, while for something open like a sandal that’s not nearly as important

        I’m so confused as to how people say sandals aren’t shoes. they’re open-toed shoes. what is your definition of “shoe,” people?
