Carl said: "My feet have always been huge — ever since I can remember. "They grew so fast when I was at school my mum kept having to buy me new shoes every few months. "Each year I would go through two or three pairs. I just wore them out really quickly. "At primary school my feet were always two sizes bigger than anyone else's. "By the time I was 12 years old they were size 14. Then in the space of two years they had gone up to size 17. I play rugby and had a huge struggle finding rugby boots — I had to get them special ordered from America." Now the unemployed welder has all his shoes specially made in the US and shipped to the UK at a cost of around £100. He said: "They don't make size 21 shoes anywhere in the UK. "They cost about £50 to have made but because the boxes they come in are quite big it costs another £50 to have them mailed back here. "I've got one pair of Nike trainers and a pair of steel-toe cap boots for work. I had some rugby boots made as well but they are already too small. "I have to wear my trainers for everything so they end up looking grubby really quickly — I wish I could have a tidy pair." Because he can only wear his trainers for nights out, Carl, a second row for the Trimsaram RFC rugby squad, is often turned away from clubs because his footwear doesn't meet the dress code.
