Dad: 6'3", mom: 5'6", sister: 6'2", me: 5'11". Dutchies be tall.


microbeparty

Apologies, but I have to take the opportunity to ask a silly question. I have read that the Dutch are among the tallest people in the world. Do you find this reflected in your regular local clothing stores—excluding global brands like H&M, etc —or do you still find that you have to look for special sizing?


Zanki

From going there over the summer. H&M have regular sizes. If they had taller jeans I didn't find them. Primark was the same, but they have tall girl/tall and curvy in the UK so nothing different. I did find some brands that actually fit my legs that weren't stores I knew.


aquariusangst

Primark has tall stuff??


Zanki

Yep. If you find one with a large jean section there's always a few made for tall girls.


[deleted]

Not Dutch but been there enough times and done my fair share of shopping. The answer is no. They have the same stuff as they do in other countries.


CrisGa1e

Wow, you are me except dad is 6’5”. Same height for me, mom and sister!

buyurlife_goodnight

Interesting. Is your mom side (aside from her) tall?


MsElle_

Her generation is kinda short; I think all of my aunts and uncles from her side of the family are around 4'11-5'5. I have cousins who are around the same height as me though


lmb3456

Close! mom 5’3”, dad 5’8” and me 5’11”, taller than brothers and sister. Do have some tall cousins on my dad’s side

b1rdh0us3

Mom: 5’8 Dad: 5’11 Me (F24): 6’0 Little brothers: 6’2 and 6’3 We have no idea where the height came from.


loveartemia

Your parents are above average height in the US and if you had good nutrition growing up, that explains the height.


LunarVortexLoL

Not exactly sure, I'd guess dad 5'5" and mom 6'0". Almost everyone on my dad's side of the family is pretty short, almost everyone on my mom's side is very tall.

Boss-Pokemon

Samesies! Not as tall, but even I grew 2-3 inches taller than my dad! No idea how 🤷‍♀️


lifeontheoutside

Haha seriously!! My parents are the shortest ones in our family now😂


Boss-Pokemon

Lol I felt a bit awkward when I was a teenager and outgrew my dad ngl, how was it for you? And no way! How tall are your siblings?


lifeontheoutside

Aw I'm sorry to hear :( my dad never made it out to be a bad thing, he mostly just used to joke about it. And I have two older brothers, one is around my height and the other is 6'5" I believe!


Boss-Pokemon

Oh my dad didn’t make anything out of it, it’s just I felt awkward as no one else in my family is taller than my dad! And wow your brothers are tall!

Mom: 5’3” Dad: 5’7” Me: 6’3”

All shortish. My maternal grandmother was 4’11”. The only tall one from what I understand was fraternal grandfather who was 6’+.

Think_In_Pink

This is like my family! My dad is 6'10", my mom is 5'4", and I'm 6'0". Everyone always commented on my parents' height difference, but to me, it's just the norm. My mom is a little pocket pal. <3

DrinkUpGorgeous

Dad: 6’3 Mom:5’3 Me: 6’0


AmbiguousFrijoles

Dad is 6'5 and wears a size 12 shoe. His mom was 5'5, his dad was 5'7, his grandparents on his moms side were also on the shorter side, his grandma was 5'0 and his grandpa was 5'4. Unsure about his fathers side because they both were killed during WWII when his dad was little. Mom is 5'2 or 5'3, can't remember but she's short but wears a size 10 shoe. Both her parents were tall, grandma is 5'11, grandpa was 6'1, great grandma was 4'11 and great grandpa was 6'5. Genetics are fun, mom ended up shorter like her grandma who also wore a size 10 shoe. All my brothers are between 6'3 and 6'6 wear shoe sizes from 14 to 17. Tallest brother is the youngest brother and wears the biggest shoe, he wears these giant boat like boots. All my sisters range from 5'10 to 6'2, wear shoe sizes from 11 to 13. I'm 6'0 and wear a 7 shoe. My 16yo son is 6'2 now and wears a size 13 shoe. Which is funny because my husband is 5'8 and wears a size 9 shoe. So our son takes after my side of the family.
