Franco and Mr BIG Foot - World's Tallest Man finds shoes fit!

Big feet rarely provoke a passionate response from any man - leather and rubber, maybe, but not big feet.

 
HUSSEIN BISSARD, who at 7ft 9 inches tall is

 the world's tallest and biggest man, travelled to

 Franco's shop in Croydon for a pair of custom-built shoes. 

 Hussein chose this

 establishment because every

 pair Franco makes are

 perfectly fitted to the

 individual's feet, starting with a

 mould of each foot and taking into account any special requirements.

 Franco said "It was such a challenge, making a really

 big pair of shoes for this guy, that's why I wanted to do it."

 

  

Franco says, "It must be impossible for someone like Hussein to get shoes."

 The shoes took Franco 6 months to make and and

 the finished products were two staggeringly huge

 size 20s, measuring 15 inches in length and 5 inches across the width of the toe.

 Mr Bissard was really pleased with his shoes and I am too.
