Have you ever met someone who just gets it? Whether they have shared experiences or have developed extreme empathy from their personal relationships? Well, besides footwear, food, and dreaming of global travel, I love to keep tabs on the VC (venture capital), marketing, and startup worlds. In my spare time, I’m literally trying to absorb as much information and inspiration from influencers and thought leaders in…
It’s that time again SSLs! Today, we get to hear from another Queen Feet superstar. I got a chance to hear from actress, producer, and athlete Sarah Brown Carter about her Queen Feet experience as she wears between U.S. footwear sizes 12-12.5. I thought it’d be really interesting to get a glimpse of the Hollywood Entertainment Biz through a Queen Feet lens. This Canadian/ American triple…

Rachel Rocconi Shoe Size: 12| Age: 24| Hometown: Washington, USA At age 11, I wore a size 11. At first, I thought it was cool when I passed up my mom in shoe size. But when I hit a size 12, the coolness disappeared quick. Finding shoes I liked and that fit me was hard, but I was lucky because at the time “skater shoes” were…
Rajahnique J., Fashion + Lifestyle Blogger Shoe Size: 11.5| Age: 35 | San Francisco Bay Area, California I was a size 11 from before my first child back to my teenage years. We spent the majority of our time in Payless for shoes for me. I remember being frustrated that I couldn’t walk into the regular women’s shoe stores and buy anything in my size unless it…
Jada B. Size: 10| Age: 24| Mississippi, USA Shoe Struggles: My experience with large feet has been an ongoing struggle for years of not being able to find a fashionable shoe in my size. My feet have been this big since about 9th grade. I wear a 10, and a 9 1/2 in most heels. Most men like women with smaller feet. They’ll even go as…
Chaffron M. Size: 9.5/10| Age: 30| Hometown: Mississippi, USA Clown shoes. That’s what I saw when I looked down at my long, skinny feet attached to my long skinny ankles and legs. I think I was about eight when I realized my feet weren’t so small. I mean, it’s kind of hard to tell an eight year-old to act her age and not her shoe size…
Shardell T. Shoe Size: 11| Age: 26 | Hometown: Connecticut, USA I have always had a large foot. In middle school, I wore an 8, then, quickly went to a size 9. Throughout my High School years, I was actually wearing a size 10, but as I entered college, I began to notice that I could not fit my size 10 shoes. I had to move on to…
Shoe Size: 11.5| Age: N/A| Country: The Netherlands Growing up in the Netherlands, a country that is known for it’s tall people, I didn’t experience that many difficulties when shopping for the right shoes. Most local shoe stores here in Amsterdam sell shoes up to size 12 (Size 42/43 in EU-size). Although my feet were bigger than most of the kids in middle school, it wasn’t…
Virginia Z. Shoe Size: 11| Age: N/A| Country: Spain My name is Virginia, and I have an 11-shoe size. My feet were no problem until I reached puberty. I have always been pretty tall. I was one of the tallest kids in my class, but my feet were okay. So, about age 13, I can’t remember exactly, I had an American 9-10, and my struggle began.…
