That would be a pretty sweet side-effect of WLS! I can't find wide shoes to fit my feet anywhere, so I just wear sneakers all the time. It sucks!

Hey! Try naturalizers, Catherine's, Woman Within for wide shoes that look nice. Naturalizers is on the pricey side but so comfortable

Same here. Feet definitely shrink a bit. For me it's more the width than the length.

Certainly not in length but they did in width. Many of my shoes, summer sandals in particular, not my runners, were just too roomy after a few months.

If you have a high arch it is possible that your shoe size will go down. I have super high arches and I found on past diets that I would go from a 6.5/7 to a 6/6.5. too early to tell if it will happen now that I am older and been my heavy weight for quite a while but we will see.
