What's the average size of a human foot, and how is that figured?

Asked by flo (13313points) January 23rd, 2017

How many peoples’ foot size is one foot? (I don’t know if that’s correct grammar)

Men’s size 14 is roughly one foot. That’s a little larger than most male feet.

It will vary from country /region/ethnicity may be based on average body size..I’m not sure though.

It is embarrassing sometimes that my feet are quite a bit
larger than my husbands….but I am tall 5’10 and wear 11 shoes
and he is 6 foot and wears a 9.

Edited to add:
Apparently they are not counting women’s foot size, and most men’s either. Most men are not 6 foot 2 inches, with size 11 shoe size.
A male, over the age of 13 and at a height of 6 feet 2 inches, has an average shoe size of 11 to 12. A male, over the age of 13 and at a height of 5 feet 5 inches or shorter, has an average shoe size of 7 to 9.

When I was 12, I wore a size 10½. My seventh grade classmates thought I had the largest feet they had ever seen. It was a standard oxford, and it measured (more or less) 12 inches from heel to toe.
