If a shoe is a 4mm drop shoe or a 10mm drop shoe, then is that drop value the same for a size 10 and a size 14?
If you approximate the numbers (or measure some feet) then you will find that if the drop value is the same for a size 10 shoe and a size 14 shoe, then the slope from toe to heel is about 30% less for the size 14 than the size 10. This seems significant enough that the drop should be scaled by size.
Anyone know how this works in practice?
