You would generally expect height to be an indicator of shoe size. 

As a teen with extremely large feet, my mother would often promise me that I was certain to get taller considering my big feet.  She felt that no one with such large feet would stay so short.  She was wrong. 

Now my daughter is faced with the same dilemma.  She is about 5-foot 2-inches and her feet are size 9-1/2.  She is only 12.  So on her behalf, I am praying for a few more inches of height with minimum foot growth. 

In the meantime, we need to just embrace our large feet. 

Here are some fun facts about big feet...

Havaianas (the Portuguese word for 'Hawaiians') are the brand name for a line of flip flops made in Brazil.

The slogan for Havaianas is "The Real Ones," suggesting that all other flip flops are a knock off. It is very possible, since they have been around since 1962.

Havaianas are a bit more expensive than your average flip flops -- which are generally less than $5 a pair. On the other hand, Havaianas typically sell for between $15 to $30 a pair.

We've all seen the infomercials for Kinoki Detox Foot Pads playing over and over every night.

The claim is that these foot pads will detox the body through the soles of your feet.

Even the well-known cosmetic company, Avon, has jumped on the bandwagon promoting their Healthy Remedies Revitalizing Patches.

The patches are a similar version of foot detox pads which seem to be growing in popularity these days.

Foot pain resulting from Plantar Fasciitis is more than just an annoyance.  When every step sends a sharp pain through your foot and up your leg, even the simplest activity becomes something you dread. 

Plantar Fasciitis is an inflammation of the Plantar Fascia, which supports the arch.  In many instances, the pain will be felt in the heel of your foot.  A sharp foot pain results from standing or walking on the affected foot and dramatically limits your ability to walk.

Plantar Fasciitis is most common in people from middle age on into the later years. As we age and our feet lose their ability to maintain a proper arch, irritation can occur and heel pain will soon follow.

There's no question that Charlize Theron is one of the most attractive actresses to grace any movie screen. Not only does she have a large fan base, but so do her feet.

I personally find it interesting that she thinks her feet are ugly. She actually thinks they are the ugliest thing about her and can't understand why her boyfriend Stuart Townsend loves them so much.

Dry air and cold weather are hard on a person's skin. Some of the most damaged skin can be found under the main foundation that carries you throughout the day -- that being the bottom of your feet. 

Treating dry or cracked feet is even more critical if you happen to be Diabetic. With a possible lessened sense of feel in your lower extremities, unnoticed injury or infection can quickly lead to more severe foot care problems -- including surgery and even amputation.

When you have dry feet or cracked feet, bleeding and open sores will be hard to heal due to the constant flexing of the cracks when you walk.

The importance of personal foot care and treating dry feet or cracked feet cannot be over emphasized.
