6 feet 7 inches tall, Aaron Judge is amongst the tallest players in modern-day baseball. Now imagine this giant-sized power-hitter looking like just another regular person. That’s exactly what happened when Aaron Judge stood next to 7’1 Shaquille O Neal. Akin to both their height, while Shaq’s shoe size is 22, Aaron Judge’s size is a “meagre” 17. Meagre indeed…

After finding out the shoe size of Shaq, and Kevin Durant, Aaron Judge strongly believed that he should stop complaining about the problems he faced while shopping for shoes. But that didn’t take away his massive mall dilemma, which rendered every Judge trip to the mall useless.

However, he eventually moved to speak about the troubles he faced inside a mall when he went shoe shopping with his friends because of his shoe size. Judge narrated, “It made it tough going to the mall. You’re picking out some shoes, all your boys are picking out ‘I’m going to get these ones, I’m going to get the 11.’ This and that. I’m like, what’s the biggest size you got? 14? All right, I’ll catch you outside.”
