how long does it take you to get used to it?
For those who don’t know what it is…

im goin to be 18 December 17…im already 5′8 (5"9 with shoes) will i still grow ??? LOTS of people told me that puberty doesnt end in guys until early 20’s for some. i want to be around 5"10 with out shoes lol… THNX

Hey my little brother is 4′7 and he wants to look a taller. He is 10 years old right now and wants to know what shoes he could get so he can be taller. I told him that Nike Shox are good but I don’t know how big the heel is, he always doesn’t want it to be that noticeable. I also heard about elevator shoes but idk if they make them for him. Oh yeah I think his shoe size is 4 or 3 1/2 something around there.

i’m 5-4 1/4 without shoes and my foot size is really 9 or 9 1/2…it seems too big for my height

Can you grow taller after your growth plates close?
my dad is 5-8 and my mom is 5-2…my uncles are mostly 5-10 except one is like 5-5 maybe 5-5 1/2
Joey yes they do

And what about 8 tracts?

I’m 16 and 135 lbs. I’ve grew maybe an inch from 5-8 to almost 5-10 in 3 years. Is there any foods or anything I can eat or anything I can do to grow a little taller? Besides wearing different shoes and that crap.
serious answers please! I expected there wouldn’t be any way.

I’m currently 16 and will be 17 in 4 months, i’m currently around 173 cm tall, or 5 feet and 8 inches, (with my shoes off) I’m worried cause i think that this is quite short, and i was just wondering if i would continue growing, my brothers are around 177~ cm. Thanks.

And how could i promote the growth, will drinking milk or working out my back muscles help? Increased sleep at correct times? I sometimes sleep at 3 am, bad habits ><

I have some Nike Shox, and they have almost a 1.5 inch heel. Any other suggestions? I’m looking for regular comfortable shoes, not some kind of "elevator shoe".

Now I know it mostly all about genetics but I think I still have a chance of growing because my uncle is the same height as my dad (5′8) and his wife is short and their kid turned out to be pretty tall so I know it’s possible to grow taller than your parents.

Anyways I’m 5′7 1/2 (5′8 with shoes on) and I would like to be at least grow another inch but I would really like to be 5′10 and up. I found some exercises that supposedly help you grow but I’m wondering what are the best vitamins to help support your growth?

Thanks in advance!
I forgot to add that my dad is 5′8 and my mom is 5′2
and I’m 17 so I’m still pretty young

I’m a 16 and a half year old girl, in theory I should be done growing.

But recently I outgrew a pair of shoes i had for over a year, i have pretty big feet for my height. It seems like I’ve been the exact same height for a long time. I got my period pretty late (13.5) so maybe I will grow later?

Some of these shoes are make to hide the fact that they are elevator shoes and to look like a regular pear of shoes to deceive women. How can I tell if a pair of shoes a guy is wearing is elevator shoes?

and are they comfortable? do they really add as much height as they say?

There are some white ones that look JUST like adidas, and supposedly they add 2.8 inches to your height and they only cost about 70 bucks.

I wouldn’t wear it to school probably, because people already associate me with being short and it might look lame. But during the summer, or maybe if i ever move, i think im definitely going to wear elevator shoes consistently because i meannnn you know. haha

like, im basically a pick up artist and my biggest drawback is my height. I would have noticeably more success if my height increased, too! Then i have good looks, great personality, i know the game… and now I have the height factor too? Im going from 5′6 to about 5′9? Hell yes! Thank you come again yes please!
well, to the first girl, you were kind of stupid and didnt exactly read my question or answer it right… your first impression pretty much sucked…

but hey, at least you did 1 thing right- you definitely made me more enthusiastic to buy those shoes and lose that flaw! =)

I turned 15 in April of this year. My father is 5 feet 7 inches tall and my mother is only 5 feet 3 inches tall. Im already 5 feet 9 inches tall with a 10 shoe size and I’m worried that i might have stopped growing. I want to be at least 5 feet 11 inches (6 feet is ideal). Will I grow??? What can I do to reach my desired height???

I am 17 girl and 5′8 but when i started puberty i know i was more like 5′6 and 3/4ths of an inch and I have pain in my legs that aching pain, and I think my shoes have grown smaller… not poitive about any of this. I also have been excercing more the last 2 weeks… Could i be growing taller still?
I was shocked when i learned i grew at all cause i heard u stop after you start your period/puberty.

im bout 5 9

I am just 1cm under 6ft 16 years old., i always wanted to be around 6′2 without shoes.
What can i do to grow taller…anything except surgery,and other risky stuff…….

My dad is around 5′11.. my mom is only around 5′4

I am a 19 year old male ; I am 5 feet 4 inches;
I heard elevator shoes have as much as 5 feet thick sole ; So they can make u look 5 feet taller & when I checked them on the internet , they dont look obvious if you wear a pant long enough to cover the extra part from behind ; After all , people will see the results !
So , is it easy to spot ??; Hurray , I will be like 5 feet 9 inches , !!

& pls answer SERIOUSLY !!!
LOL , I mean 5 inches

Im 5′3 or 5′4 without my shoes on. my dad is around 5′7 or 5′8, and i would love to grow at least to 5′10. Is that possible? and Since summer is about to start im going to have more time to eat, sleep, exercise, and stretch better. If anyone has n e suggestions like food(meals), exercise, or stretching wise i would really appriciate it. thanks

Im 14, 5′4 size 7 shoe. My dad is 5′8, my mom is 5′2. Im taller than most of my family already, everyone always says im going to be tall. My uncle was REALLY tall, almost 7′0. And my cousin is that tall. I haven’t been growing that much lately. Do you think i will be tall?

Ok, well i am a girl and I recently heard from a guy friend that he’d been discovered wearing elevator pump shoes by another friend. And it was embarassing for him, since he got some jibes from it

I never noticed anything different about his shoes. They were pretty normal to me (granted I don’t look at men’s shoes much, me being a chick)

And they were classy, dress shoes for work and stuff

But why are guys anal about hiding the fact that they wear pump shoes? Is it because they are embarassed about being short? Well girls wear heels to, amongst other reasons, appear taller, and that’s ok

But why is it embarassing for guys to wear heighened elevator shoes? They dun look so noticeable anyways

Got an x-ray the other day and the doc said I’m done growing.
I’m 16 and on a good day i might be 5′7" (no shoes)
Is this doc right?
are there any ways to legitimately grow taller than what your genes have in store for you? exercises? miracle pills? food and drink choices? etc?

Thanks!
I’m a guy BTW

I am interested in adding an inch or two to my height and came across several sites for elevator shoes. The best looking ones I found are TOTTII brand on itallershoes.com.

Has anyone ever tried these or seen them? I am hesitant to buy them unless I can determine that they don’t look/feel weird or are too noticeable.

Please don’t respond with comments about insecurity or being happy with my height. I am 5′11 and would like to be around 6′0-6′1. (I realize the 2.8-3.2 inch gain is a bit of a marketing ploy as regular shoes give you about an inch to inch and a half gain)

Im 16, female, and 5 foot 5. My mum’s taller than me, and my dads around 6 ft. I’m only a size 4.5 in shoes, and most of my friends are all taller than me.. Is there any chance i’ll grow much more? I’d rather be a bit taller..:( also, is there anything i can do that will help me get taller?
