Can your feet get ... smaller?? (sopuli.xyz)

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??

Feet often do get smaller when you lose a lot of weight. Partly because feet have layers of fat too, and partly because there's less weight squishing them out sideways.

It's like TIL , but it's common sense that remained unexplored.. atleast for me.
