It seems like everything is getting smaller, except for my waistline.

.....now I'm starting to think it's the pants.

Same here, mine went from 12 to 13.

A burden we must bear.

I have worn the same size New Balance running shoes for years. During Covid you couldnt get them for nearly a year. During that time they apparantly switched to overseas manufacturing.

When they were available again, I ordered a pair and they were actually BIGGER than before. Enough so that I proabably should have returned them, but I didnt.

Always have worn 10 1/2 Ds, What I find is the manufacturers are inconsistent with their sizing. Ordered half a dozen hiking walking shoes from major brands before I found one that fit right.
